Domain-specific

• Third Place
  • Third place, a concept named by sociologist Ray Oldenburg and Dennis Brissett in The third place (1982) and systematised by Oldenburg in The Great Good Place (1989), designates a category of semi-public gathering setting — cafés, pubs, barbershops, bookstores, parks, community centres, town squares — that is neither the home (the first place, the domain of intimate domestic life) nor the workplace (the second place, the domain of economic obligation), and that serves as the social infrastructure for informal encounter, weak-tie maintenance, casual exchange, and the kind of belonging that is neither family intimacy nor professional relationship.

Verification

Does it exist? Not checked yet. This work's DOI is recorded above but has not been resolved against an external catalogue, so nothing here confirms the work exists.

Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
