Abstract

In France, high-rise housing estates constructed in the postwar years have increasingly come to symbolize social dislocation and violence. This image arises both from the physical decay of the housing stock and increased social segregation in the estates. Since the 1980s some of the largest, most dilapidated, and most notorious structures have been demolished as part of urban regeneration projects (Donzelot 2006; Rosello 1997). The demolitions have been presented as signaling the sweeping away of an outmoded form of accommodation and the social ills associated with it.
