Abstract

The Egyptian village has changed since the early growth stages until the beginning of the 214 century. However, this change was associated to a great extent with the forces and variables that prevailed at every stage of transformation and development. This paper tackles the following questions 1): Did this transformation have a positive effect on the natural and urban environment and particularly on the cultural and social traits of the Egyptian village?, 2): Are these changes resulting from the impact of regional trends and global variables, as the contradiction between the rural and urban areas has been ended and replaced by a new structure and a new formula, which are different in their urban and cultural characteristics? The urban deterioration leads to a disturbance in the relations governing the structure of the city or an imbalance in the level of the structure of the city as a whole, such as the relation between the old and the modern, the inside and the outside, and the public and the private. Thus, the development of these deteriorated societies needs a kind of dedicated change of its content base, to lead the improvement of the existent conditions toward a better one
