TIME - SPACE - PLACES KARTONIERT (TB)

The fate of the city as a way of organising human social life has frequently been declared as
sealed. After decades of urban sprawl  technological revolutions towards the end of the 20th
century sparked speculation about the virtualisation of urban functions: cyberspace instead of
city. Moreover  the flexibilisation of time structures began to add a temporal dimension to the
fragmentation of urban regions. Looking back on the apocalyptic prophecies of the 1990s  it is
encouraging to discover that the city is still among the living. There is indeed a simultaneity
of dispersion and concentration. Spatial and temporal density are not in the process of
dissolving: they are being redefined. The international conference Time Space Places undertook
to trace the course of this redefinition and the new constellations of our urban system.
