Abstract

Alors qu’il existe plusieurs atlas de l’Égypte ancienne, aucun atlas de l’Égypte contemporaine n’avait encore été publié. Cet ouvrage vient donc combler un vide, en offrant au grand public un panorama illustré de l’Égypte au début du XXIe siècle. Réunissant les contributions d’une cinquantaine de chercheur.e.s, il présente, sous une forme cartographiée et vulgarisée, les faits saillants et les enjeux de l’Égypte actuelle en matière politique, géopolitique, économique, démographique, sociale, environnementale et culturelle. Il s’appuie, à cette fin, sur des ressources documentaires inédites : les cartes notamment, qui exploitent les résultats du recensement officiel égyptien de 2017, offrent une version actualisée du territoire. Pour mieux connaître et comprendre l’Égypte d’aujourd’hui.

5. Postrevolutionary land encroachments in Cairo: Rhizomatic urban space making and the line of flight from illegality

Abstract

International audience; This paper explores a case of such land encroachments carried out by waste collectors in the neighbourhood of Manshiet Nasser in Cairo, Egypt. It begins with theoretical debates about the production of urban space, arguing that the de Certeauian paradigm, in which urban marginals poach or hijack others' spaces evanescently, fails to account for the way such encroachments produce permanent new spaces rhizomatically alongside the pre-existing order. The paper then turns to a close examination of the events in Manshiet Nasser. Although in a broad view the actors are marginals living in the 'informal' city, the conditions enabling the encroachments were such that only the wealthiest and most powerful members of the 'commu-nity' benefitted. In a context of generalized 'illegality', the squatters rely on practical norms and de facto recognitions to obtain some degree of tenure security. Since these efforts rely on and play off legal norms even as the squatters violate them, the paper argues that property rights in this context should be understood not in classificatory terms based on the legal/illegal binary, but rather through a trajectory of 'becoming-legal': a 'line of flight' that approaches legality asymptotically.

Abstract

International audience; Through a discussion of Egypt–China trade in PET plastic, this paper seeks to show how contemporary recycling economies do not all conform to North–South directionalities, nor to the other assumptions about agency, vulnerability and environmental damage that inhere in the ‘neo-colonial geographies of inequality’ paradigm. In so doing, it seeks to contribute to developing more optimistic and nuanced alternative framings of global waste flows. The paper follows a two-part structure. The first half provides background on the author’s research methods, the recycling business in Egypt and its ties to China before further outlining the paradigm the paper seeks to nuance, particularly as it has been developed through and applied to e-waste case studies and entrenched in the principal legal instrument governing transboundary waste flows, the Basel Convention. The second half of the paper, after some conceptual notes outlining and locating the author’s approach to the market in the literature, attempts to provide a few details of the Egypt–China PET market from fieldwork, focusing on two price-shaping/making processes: market fluctuations during the global economic crisis in 2008/09 and the quality standards criteria applied by Chinese buyers.

12. What Did Neoliberalism Change for Waste? Foreign Waste Collection Companies in Cairo

Abstract

International audience; This short paper shows how 'neoliberal globalization' is reworked from within by local actors who appropriate its symbols, practices, and ideas—often for ends extrinsic to the logic underpinning them at the origins. In Cairo, public-private partnerships with European waste management companies—a new development over the past decade—are not merely 'neoliberalism from the sky.' They incorporate longstanding aesthetic and symbolic concerns over 'cleanliness' and 'modernity,' recasting them in a vogue idiom, one that plays well with international funders.

International audience; This is the introduction to a special number of A Contrario that I coordinated with Daniel Meier. It has three main parts. First it discusses humanitarianism, in attempt to define it and summarize some of what people have been writing on the topic recently. In the second part it considers the place of faith-based organisations in humanitarianism, as well as historical and other linkages between humanitarianism and religion (e.g. missionary work). Third, it summarizes the articles that will be published in the special number.

Abstract

International audience; As Chakrabarty points out in his presentation "Between Globalization and Global Warming: The Long and the Short of Human History" [available in the University of Chicago International and Area Studies Multimedia Outreach Source archive], historians have only just begun to enter the climate change debate. This is my review of one of or perhaps even THE first full-length monograph, translated from the German, to address climate change from a historian's perspective. While I found the book original and interesting, I criticize it for a 'whiggish view of progress' in which challenge after challenge is overcome inevitably by the increasing power of human rationality. I find it ironic to argue that this dialectic will solve our climate change problems, when it seems to me to be more or less what got us into them.
