| Abstract |
More than half world population lives in cities. In Morocco, the urbanization has more than doubled during the last fifty years to reach 59.2 % today. More than ever, this sociodemographic situation conditions the challenges which the country has to raise to assure an optimal quality of life for the Moroccan citizens. The idea of smart-cities is examined with respect to the intent, including current urbanization models, development issues and city planning in Morocco; the case of the proposed smart-city of Casablanca, a flagship of proposals and current realities is looked at. An indigenous alternative following the model proposed of smart-villages instead is examined for appropriateness. |
