Fábrica de ilusiones: Coworking, arquitectura y la pacificación de la contracultura
Main Article Content
Abstract
Las tecnologis de la informacion y las comunicaciones, las economis colaborativas y las ultimas crisis financie- ras han creado nuevas formas de organizacion de los espacios de trabajo, entre los cuales destaca el modelo deCowork. Este sistema organizativo ha producido importantes transformaciones en los espacios de trabajo y en las ciudades, procesos que han venido a exacerbar las condiciones laborales de precariedad que afectan espe- cialmente a las actividades vinculadas a la llamada industria cultural, incluyendo a la arquitectura, impulsando fuertes cambios en la organizacion de los espacios de trabajo y sobre las comunidades y barrios, y apoyando procesos de gentrificacion. Se trata de un modelo que ha estado caracterizado tanto por el riesgo, la volatilidad y la incertidumbre economica como por la apropiacion y la reificacion de simbolos e imagenes provenientes de los principales movimientos contraculturales del siglo XX
Abstract_
Information and communication technologies, collaborative economies and the latest financial crises have created new ways of organizing workspaces, among which the Cowork model stands out. This organizational system has produced important transformations in workspaces and in cities, processes that have exacerbated precarious working conditions that especially affect activities linked to the so-called cultural industry, including architecture, promoting strong changes in the organization of workspaces, communities and neighborhoods, and supporting gentrification processes. It is a model that has been characterized by both risk, volatility and economic uncertainly, as well as by the appropriation and reification of symbols and images from the main countercultural movements of the 20th Century.
