Let me begin by admitting that I share the same misgivings expressed in the introduction to this symposium. I hope to embellish my misgivings with observations and reflections from several occasions of practice, teaching, and curriculum review of recently accredited planning programs in the Global South that required my involvement. I have written about some of these experiences and insights, several of which were shared and co-authored with colleagues and former students. Many of my observations are based on these experiences or research on major planning episodes. This very question of how the values, perspectives, and expertise of the West have shaped the immediate legacy of the urban form of the contemporary Global South is the central theme of my recent book, In the Images of Development: City Design in the Global South (Banerjee 2021). I have argued that, with the beginning of the colonial era, city design in the developing world was largely shaped by the values, institutions, and technologies of the West, and only in the images of the West replacing endogenous built forms. The possible endogeneity of change and development – as was the norm in the canonical cities of pre-colonial times – was totally pre-empted by the exogeneity of the dominant colonial order. Regrettably, images of the West continue to shape the landscape of the Global South today, producing an outcome totally exogenous and alien to the local context. After centuries of dependent urbanisation, this practice has not seemed to change in the post-colonial years continuing until today. In part, this has been a result of the ensuing years of globalisation and the dawn of a new global economic order, amply supported by abundant global capital. High-rise apartment and office towers, shopping malls, entertainment complexes, freeways and subways, and new towns are transforming the emerging landscape of the Global South in search of a global identity and image. These are often copies of the Western urban form. The nine satellite towns of Shanghai, each replicating a generic European urban form and urbanism are cases in point. Such examples abound all over the Global South: “good copies are better than bad originals” seems to be the order of the day. Again the questions we need to address: why cannot there be equally effective originals relevant to the Global South? Why do we have to copy? The script of this exogenous image of development, meanwhile, has failed to address the dualistic and antipodal nature of this emergent landscape – often a legacy of an earlier colonial era, exacerbated by large-scale urban transformations which have displaced and excluded the lower-income residents. Nor does this script include issues of sustainability, especially the current crisis of global warming and climate change. Indeed, it can be argued that the transformation of the Global South in the image of the West has exacerbated the crisis of climate change. If this is inevitable in the Global Sout

Abstract The trend toward working from home is concomitant with the digitalisation of the workplace and was further boosted by the recent pandemic. This development raises numerous questions regarding the advancement of sustainable urban development, in particular, with regard to recent efforts in urban planning toward inward urban development. In light of the above, the article examines the question of how mobile forms of work can be contextualised within the framework of sustainable urban development. To achieve this, we review research regarding working from home and coworking spaces and discuss how the flexibilisation of the place of work could affect different residential patterns and which questions could be derived from them for spatial planning and residential development. This is achieved by reviewing recent figures as well as social science and spatial planning literature on the topic of new mobile forms of work and their spatial effects.

在家办公的趋势与工作场所的数字化相伴而生，最近的疫情进一步推动了这一趋势。这种发展提出了许多关于促进可持续城市发展的问题，特别是关于最近在城市规划方面为向内城市发展所作的努力。鉴于上述情况，本文探讨了如何在可持续城市发展的框架内将流动形式的工作置于背景下。为了实现这一目标，我们回顾了关于在家工作和共同工作空间的研究，并讨论了工作场所的灵活性如何影响不同的居住模式，以及哪些问题可以从中得出空间规划和住宅开发。这是通过审查最近的数字以及关于新的流动工作形式及其空间影响的社会科学和空间规划文献来实现的。英文标题:Making the workplace more flexible。可持续住宅和空间发展的新挑战

Abstract In the context of a global health crisis, digital tools play a growing role in daily lives of students and working people. Many people now work from home and study online. Do these virtual exchanges replace spatial mobility? To answer this question in this article, we focus on individual trade-offs in terms of travel choices and, more specifically, in terms of travel time. Based on the work of Y. Zahavi and the hypothesis he made of the stability of time budgets on a daily scale, we question the relevance of an extension of the thinking to the weekly stability of these time budgets (with and without the weekend) and also to the stability of the perceived time budgets. Our challenge in this article is to better understand individual choice logics to ensure more efficient political measures. English title: Individual trade-offs in travel time budgets.

Abstract The present essay deals with the centres of the growing and dynamic Zurich agglomeration, notably those in the communities of Schlieren, Thalwil, and Wallisellen. The primary study focus of this City Tour is the area around the train stations in the centres presented. The theoretical foundation touches on approaches of the relational theory of space, the conceptualisation of a Swiss-specific Zwischenstadt (Thomas Sieverts) and non-lieux (Marc Augé). As a result of industrialisation and urbanisation processes, the central district in these three communities has moved away from the historic town centres. With the construction of train stations outside the former community boundaries, a new place of centrality has developed. Today, a second shift in these central areas can be witnessed. Current transformation processes result in the ‘rear side’ of the train station now being developed as an extended central area. Although these real estate developments should result in upgrades of public spaces, the urban pathways crossing the railway infrastructures are often poorly developed. In reality, these underpasses and passages are purely functional non-spaces. The conclusion of this essay frames an answer on possible planning approaches for how this urban development and socio-spatial deficit might be solved.

Abstract This article explores how the logic underlying modal practices tends to modulate the population’s responsiveness to improvements in global transport supply. Based on a quantitative survey conducted in 2018–2019 among the working population of the cantons of Bern, Geneva and Vaud, it presents the construction of eight types, each of which corresponds to a specific combination of action logic and allows segmentation of travel behaviour. The exploration of the links between this typology and three metropolitan areas shows that the weight of the types within the active population is associated with the quality of the transport offered, especially at the workplace, and that the use of the different means of transport for commuting within the types stays consistent with the opinions of the respondents, as confirmed by an ordinal regression. All the results presented in this article show that a modal shift objective in daily mobility requires a strategy that is segmented by these types.
