| Summary: | From Shanghai to London via Rio de Janeiro, the waterfronts and river fronts of cities have become the window of their new ambitions and spaces of sociability where the function of walk has become central. In the case of the city of Rabat in Morocco, it was not until the beginning of the 21st century that the banks of the Bouregreg became a site for walking, a place to visit, a place to live, a palce to meet and a scene where to see and be seen. From the observation of the circulations and the interactions, we will question the walk as a form of urban expression based on movement, a sort of “ambulatory urbanity”, in which the bodies intersect and escape according to precise codes, implementing a new choreographies and geographies. We will also interrogate this place produced according to the new international standards of metropolises and tourism, as a “geosymbol of an urbanity” and a cosmopolitan sociability that is both inclusive and exclusive where women and young couples take a place. |
