The post-revolutionary effect on the urban harmony of Cairo’s built environment in relation to the collective memory of the population: Urban context of the “after revolution” between contravention and elaboration

The Egyptian urban space is in continuous metamorphoses since the Revolution of January 2011. This transformation is being manifested by various phenomena. On the one hand, the feeling of patriotism arose from Al Tahrir square to change the Egyptian’s soul. People start to express their feeling by methods, considered as new to the Egyptian community. On the other hand, another part of the society started to make profit from this revolution and the non-application of the laws. This complex impact of Egyptian Revolution of 2011 on the Cairene urban space – with all its manifestation – has been preoccupying us; especially when it comes to its effect on the urban harmony of the built environment of the city and its relation to the urban collective memory of the population. This research will focus on the analysis of various phenomena appeared after the Egyptian Revolution.
