Summary: | Major trends in society like flexibilisation, blurring of boundaries between
life spheres and subjectification of labour come along with new requirements
in individual's everyday life. In the scientific debate it has in contrast
hardly been discussed how these trends affect different levels of society
beyond social strata like the <i>creative class</i>. Referring to the concepts of reflexive
modernity and time-geography the focus of this article is on temporal and
spatial aspects of societal change and its effects on everyday life. Based
on in-depth interviews and a household survey carried out in different
residential areas in the region of Halle-Leipzig the paper points out how
blurred borders between "work'' and "life'' affect individuals' space-time
activities between new opportunities and new constraints. Here an inner-city
neighbourhood and a community in the urban sprawl between Halle and Leipzig
are under consideration to highlight different strategies to deal with
weakening associations between activities, place and time emerging in
different settlement structures. |
