Abstract

This paper introduces a new attempt to redefine and re-understand the term of gentrification and its main role in social resilience. Social resilience is a must in order to achieve urban sustainability. However, New Cairo's urban dynamics implicate a new form of “gentrification”, that could be described differently (commercial, social or urban) and controversially (positive or negative). This new ongoing process will threat eventually its “social resilience” by creating social polarization and loss of identity. In order to apprehend this new redefinition of gentrification in relation to social resilience, we will focus on the changes that are taking place in New Cairo's real estate market and urbanization trends as well as their reverberation on both the urban and social sustainability.

新开罗的城市动态:将中产阶级化重新定义为社会恢复力的主要因素
本文介绍了重新定义和重新理解“中产阶级化”一词及其在社会弹性中的主要作用的新尝试。为了实现城市的可持续性,社会弹性是必不可少的。然而,新开罗的城市动态隐含着一种新形式的“中产阶级化”,它可以被不同地描述(商业、社会或城市),并有争议(积极或消极)。这种正在进行的新过程最终将通过造成社会两极分化和身份丧失而威胁到其“社会弹性”。为了理解与社会弹性相关的中产阶级化的新定义,我们将关注新开罗房地产市场和城市化趋势正在发生的变化,以及它们对城市和社会可持续性的影响。
