City, Territory and Architecture welcomes submissions to the thematic series on Homes, Cities and the End of Labour.
This thematic series focuses on homes, cities and the end of labour. As Jeremy Rifkin has already pointed out, labour is progressively vanishing and with it two of its long-time companions are also fading: the framing of time and the zoning of space into areas devoted to work, leisure, family and rest. The boundaries between these activities are fading in contemporary life, as people work at home, travel to make purchases and gather in virtual networks. It is interesting to observe that although society is going through these major changes, most of our spatial infrastructures, from the design of our homes to the city zones, not to mention many of the projects that are still waiting to be built, are remnants of the Taylorist age.
