Where Do We Go From Here as Homes Shrink and Move Online

The piece reflects on postwar civic and domestic shifts as homes grow smaller and people seek entertainment and community elsewhere. It contrasts past home life with modern options such as skating rinks, lectures, dances, wrestling, and peewee golf, questioning whether staying home was ever truly a choice. It ties American change to broader Europe, warning of a culture moving away from the home and toward external amusements. It notes a paradox of shrinking spaces in both the Soviet and Western contexts, urging reflection on future living arrangements and social life.
