The historic city of Algeria between myth and reality

The presence of an exceptional historical heritage often gives the city a singularity, an image of identity. In order to relate the city to its elements and its urban area, we have tried to define the different entities that can present issues of development and sustainability, each of which has its own internal logic of functioning, in interaction with the other elements. As a result, we tried to demonstrate the need for coherence through the various operations of reconquest of space by endogenous interventions for a better exploitation of urban land, and the fight against urban sprawl, stimulated by the distribution of the residential function that allows the development of individual mobility. We have also found that tourism is an interesting alternative in the perspective of a social reconciliation with space, but also of openness and exchange in the context of the phenomenon of globalization. But the attractiveness of it depends on its interaction with the whole urban fabric; it is the relationship between the global and the local.
