The End of Spatial Reorganization? 47 The End of Spatial Reorganization? Urban Landscapes of Personal Mobilities in the Information Age Aharon Kellerman HE profound spatial transitions wrought by information and communications technologies (ICTs) have been Tstudied from a variety of angles (i.e., telecommunica- tions, information and the Internet, mobility, and planning) in the geography literature of recent years. The aim of this article Kellerman 1993 is to show that contemporary ICTs (as opposed to previously Kellerman 2002 adopted technologies for personal corporeal and virtual mobilities) Kellerman 2006 Graham and Marvin 1996 do not call for an increased consumption of urban space as their Graham and Mavin 2001 use grows, nor have they facilitated new waves of urban spatial Corey and Wilson 2006 growth, normally induced in developed countries by commercial rather than public capital.
