In the aftermath of the pandemic, teleworking in Portugal maintains a very high standard of adherence among workers and employers, with the contribution of dedicated legal frameworks, as these new ways of working continue to encourage innovative workspace configurations in the territories, triggering new urban dynamics, particularly significant to our observation. The thematic dossier opening this 46th issue of CIDADES, Comunidades e Territórios offers a set of contributions on this issue. “Working Beyond Boundaries: Redefining Work Modes and Spaces Across Geographies”, edited by Elisabete Tomaz, Cristina Henriques, Chiara Tagliaro and Uglješa Stankov, gathers three articles, one interview and one book review on the theme of coworking spaces and its multiple connections with urban, labour and social ecosystems. The timely pertinence of its central topic inspired the reflections gathered here, while certainly not exhausting them. We hope this dossier may inspire further studies on subjects related to these new trends that are revolutionizing working arrangements and spaces, along with the territories that provide the setting for these complex relationships. CIDADES, Comunidades e Territórios will remain attentive and receptive to further developments on these subjects, for sure.
