Summary:

A rebours de tous les clichés, le Sahara est un monde de villes. Cependant, les cités anciennes héritées des échanges transsahariens ont dès la période coloniale amorcé une longue agonie. D'autres types de villes ont émergé à la faveur des indépendances, sur fond de volontarisme politique des nouveaux Etats. Comme un clin d'oeil au mot chinatown, cet ouvrage propose de forger le terme de saharatown pour qualifier ces villes voulues par les nouveaux pouvoirs publics, purs produits des politiques d'aménagement menées à partir des années 1960. C'est à la rencontre de ces villes nouvelles et de leurs habitants qu'invite ce livre, fruit de la longue expérience de terrain d'un géographe (CNRS UMR 5193), qui conduit à découvrir les espaces et les atmosphères urbaines propres aux saharatowns d'aujourd'hui.
