Abstract

The changes generated by information and telecommunication technologies in the organization of work activities may influence the way that modern cities will change in both the short and long term. The radical changes predicted in the first utopian scenarios have not taken place yet, but there is evidence of slow changes that are reshaping work and urban structures. This article analyses this evidence, in the light of the utopian and dystopian views proposed by many authors, with the aim of outlining scenarios for the future of work activities and urban structures.
