Abstract (EN)
"House" is example of a place, while "person" exemplifies a user. The relationship between the two entities culminates in the creation of a "home," which persists as long as the relationship endures. This study seeks to explore the nature of this relationship in the context of trailers, which serve as examples of mass-produced mobile homes. The trailer's features, such as mobility, minimalism, and mass-production, set it apart from traditional houses with respect to the user's relationship. A comprehensive perspective has been obtained by delving into the trailer's lifelong history and examining it within the sociological context of different periods.The study is confined to the United States, where trailers were born and evolved. The trailer has undergone several transformations over time, responding to the critical impacts of the era and reaching its present form. The study is divided into four sections, each covering a distinct period in history: the wagon era, the post-Ford T era, the post-World War II mobile home era, and the post-technology RV era. The trailer has undergone both minor and significant transformations, with individual actors, cultural influences, and crises identified as the primary drivers of these changes. In conclusion, the relationship between place, people, and crisis is questioned. In this study, the trailer is regarded as a case of place, and the necessary attributes for creating and transforming a place is discussed. Finally, speculation on the future is made based on the findings.
