- r. Thomas Briefly Discusses Women and the Everyday City (5:32)
Sorry, I need to remind myself where the microphone is so I don’t hold books in front of it! Also, what I am trying to draw attention to in this video, not very well, I think, is that women had to metaphorically carry that disciplinary space, that space of enclosure, from the home into the public when they were in public space. And this has much larger implications for our society as a whole, because it points to a transition from a disciplinary society—a society metaphorically grasped or understood in relation to spaces of enclosure—and a hyper-disciplinary society where these disciplinary relations are everywhere and “in” everything.
