Impact of Globalization On A Southern Cosmopolitan City (Cairo): A Human Rights Perspective By Dr.Samir Naim Ahmed Professor of Sociology, Ain Shams University, Cairo
Paper presented at XVII ISA World Congress of Sociology, 11-17 July 2010, Gothenburg , Sweden
Abstract : All the cities of the world have been affected by globalization. However it affected cities of the south differently than cities of the north due to the mechanisms of globalization of the world market which has led to the widening of the gap between the north and the south and between the rich and the poor. This paper discusses how this has been associated with economic, social and spatial polarization within the cities of the south and assesses the impact of this polarization on the different aspects of human rights of the people in a southern cosmopolitan city ( Cairo , Egypt .)
