| Summary: | Periurban spaces keep being characterized by the tempo of commuters’ occupations. However, the increase of new forms of employment, including flexitime, results in a more continuous activity and need is increasingly felt for new services and more flexible opening hours. Clashes of interests between social groups are generated by the confrontation between several ways of life. Local authorities, essentially the communes, try to clear up these problems which tarnish the image of villages as convivial places. The articulation between periurban and urban temporalities has never been so necessary. |
