In an effort to restyle Cairo into a global capital that would meet the demands of tourists and investors and to achieve President Anwar Sadat's goal to modernize the housing conditions of the urban poor, the Egyptian government relocated residents from what was deemed valuable real estate in downtown Cairo to public housing on the outskirts of the city. Based on more than two years of ethnographic fieldwork among five thousand working-class families in the neighborhood of al-Zawyia al-Hamra, this study explores how these displaced residents have dealt with the stigma of public housing, the loss of their established community networks, and the diversity of the population in the new location. Until now, few anthropologists have delivered detailed case studies on this recent phenomenon. Ghannam fills this gap in scholarship with an illuminating analysis of urban engineering of populations in Cairo. Drawing on theories of practice, the study traces the various tactics and strategies employed by members of the relocated group to appropriate and transform the state's understanding of 'modernity' and hegemonic construction of space. Informed by recent theories of globalization, Ghannam also shows how the growing importance of religious identity is but one of many contradictory ways that global trajectories mold the identities of the relocated residents. "Remaking the Modern" is a revealing ethnography of a working class community's struggle to appropriate modern facilities and confront the alienation and the dislocation brought on by national policies and the quest to globalize Cairo.

這本書是我這學期到現在讀過的民族誌裏麵最好看的一本！！有一說一 是我讀過最有歸屬感最讓我想傢的民族誌。裏麵說封陽颱的時候我想到傢裏因為要不要裝玻璃封陽颱吵架。裏麵說在傢裏養雞的時候我想到以前傢裏巨大的酸菜缸。有的時候讓我覺得有點過度解讀瞭 但是是一本讓我想傢又會重新思考現代性這個概念的書。感覺那個時候是不是有什麼福柯思潮之類的…discourse/discipline/knowledge and power這些概念一直在齣現。
