New Cities and Residential Neighbourhoods of the 20th Century
Discovered in 1920, the Moroccan phosphate extraction site of Ouled Abdoun is the place where are settled the mining hubs and the new towns of Boujniba, Boulanouare, Hattane, Khouribga and Oued Zem. “Phosphatvilles. Territory, Settlements and Architecture in the Moroccan extraction site of Ouled Abdoun” is the result of the research project “Villes Minières du Maroc” developed by DA - Department of Architecture, funded by Global South International Cooperation Project of the University of Bologna. Within this book, the present contribution addresses the theme of the new cities and residential neighbourhoods of the 20th century. The first part of the essay is dedicated to the topic “New cities of the 20th century: from Italy to Morocco”, while the second one to the “Demonstrative, experimental and residential Modern neighbourhoods”: both inviting not only to extend the concept of heritage to the large scale, but also to raise the issue of the transmission to the future of material proofs that constitute a heritage made up also of unprotected assets.
