Time, space and technology in the working-home: an unsettled nexus

Abstract

The research reported here draws upon four homes in Melbourne, Australia, where variable practices and strategies in the use of information and communication technologies are adopted in negotiating the temporal and spatial dynamics of the working-home. Informed by theories from Science and Technology Studies, we argue that these strategies arise in concernful relation with others—both human and non-human—that enable and constrain the possibilities for action.
