Dystopian Concrete proposes an interdisciplinary look at the Nasser Era (1954-70) in post-colonial Egypt. Departing from the study of the Social Housing program of the period and the contradictions that it shares with the charismatic leader, the work unfolds a historical re-view based on micro-stories, revealing the slide from the socialist utopian ideal to the current urban dystopia that is the city of Cairo, suggesting that all urban dystopia is necessarily accompanied by a social dystopia.
