The shape of the information city: Understanding the impacts of the information revolution on city form
Abstract
The shape, organization, and evolution of
cities are increasingly being determined by a
new dynamic with its own logic: the information
revolution. This article argues that
the nature of this urban change goes well
beyond teleworking and points to four key
areas of impact that have important implications
for cities and for planners. La forme, l'organisation et l'évolution des
villes sont de plus en plus déterminées par
une nouvelle dynamique dotée de sa propre
logique : la révolution de l'information. Cet
article soutient que la nature de ce
changement urbain va bien au-delà du
télétravail et décrit quatre secteurs majeurs
qui ont des conséquences importances pour
les villes et pour !es urbanistes.
