Résumé
This chapter provides an overview of the redevelopment project and detail the eligibility criteria that are intrinsic to the governmental programme and that generate differentiated resettlement and focuses on the transit camp, starting with the settling-down conditions and the camp dispositif. The chapter examines the multiple effects of resettlement in the camp on the affected families, including their living conditions, livelihoods, and socio-spatial practices. It analyses the transit camp as a space of "formation of more governable citizens", while also considering the capacity of these citizens under control to exert their agency. The project involved transferring the families to a transit camp to be built by the developer before construction work could start. The developer endeavoured to convince some local leaders to move to the transit camp and prompt their community members to follow, allegedly by paying them substantial sums. The chapter explores multidimensional impact of resettlement in the transit camp, with reference to the residents' situation in their settlement.
