Abstract:
The greater Cairo region is the most populated area in Egypt. The aquatic environment of the Nile River in this area is being affected by industrial activities. The study of the molecular structure of sediment may provide a good trace for such changes. Both Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and density functional theory (DFT) were used to study the effect of industrial waste disposal south of Cairo on the molecular structure of Nile River sediment. Four seasonal samples were collected from six sites covering 75 km along the Nile River. Grain sizes of 200 μm, 125 μm, 65 μm, and 32 μm, respectively, were examined. The results indicate that hydrated aluminum hydroxide controls the distribution of organic matter in the different grain sizes. Furthermore, the hydration of phenol may take place in grain sizes lower than 200 μm, which is indicated by the OH stretching at 3550 cm−1 and verified by the obtained model. The formation of metal carboxylate bonds at 1638 cm−1 (asymmetric) and 1382 cm−1 (symmetric) indicate the possible interaction between heavy metals and other organic structures, mainly humic substances.

Abstract:
Sustainable development (SD) has become a crucial challenge globally, particularly in developing countries and cities. SD of peri-urban areas (PUA) has been tackled by a limited number of studies, unlike that of urban areas or cities. The PUAs of Greater Cairo (GC) are no exception; no study had addressed the state of the PUAs in terms of SD. Thus, this study sought to measure and evaluate the progress towards the SD in the PUAs of Greater Cairo, Egypt. Thirteen indicators were extracted from selected documents of the competent international organizations to measure and evaluate the performance of SD in the study area. The study resulted in a variety of charts and maps to explain the progress of SD in each municipality of the PUAs and then classify these municipalities based on their performance in sustainability indicators. The results revealed a wide gap between PUAs’ municipalities and the urban core of Greater Cairo. These results can help urban planners and decision-makers to better recognize the underdeveloped areas on the Greater Cairo peripheries, and hence, to develop the appropriate strategies and policies to improve SD in such areas.

Abstract:
AbstractGreater Cairo is a primate, monocentric metropolis with significant socio-economic disparities among its population and neighborhoods. This chapter examines the relationship between income inequality, the welfare regime, centralized governance, settlement type, housing policies, occupational status, and socio-economic segregation. Using data from the 1986, 1996, and 2006 censuses, we report the dissimilarity index to demonstrate the distribution of residents in the Greater Cairo Region by occupational status, we show patterns of socio-economic segregation based on the distribution of the population by categories of occupations across census tracts and employ the location quotient to compare the concentration of the top/bottom groups in each census tract relative to the city average. The results show that growing economic inequality does not necessarily result in greater socio-economic segregation. The results also suggest that social class contributes to residential clustering. While the poorer strata of the Greater Cairo Region were pushed to the periphery and the older urban core, affluent inhabitants were more likely to settle voluntarily in segregated enclaves to isolate themselves from the general population.

Abstract:
Abstract The first impression that one gets returning to Egypt after an absence of some time is unmistakably one of greater freedom. In the past, criticism of the régime tended to be furtive, the speaker looking around carefully and making sure who was within earshot before he spoke. Now it is much more open. People tell jokes or make explicit criticisms even of the President at dinner parties and in public places without bothering to look around and see who is there. Only the presence of foreign correspondents seems on occasion to inhibit the expression of unorthodox views. Otherwise criticism is not only more out-spoken but is much more violent. Whereas previously it tended to be directed against the regime as such rather than against Nasser in person, it is now both more vicious and more personal in tone. A line which was familiar at an earlier time, as also in other dictatorial régimes past and present—that the leader was good but the men around him evil—is no longer heard. Criticism of Nasser has become much more direct, and reflects even on his personal integrity.

Abstract:
Abstract Most changes in the way people live and think take place gradually. We do not usually see history changing before our eyes as we go about our daily activities. But sometimes particular years stand out. Dramatic events take place, and people realize that a new era has begun. Jews in America knew that 1967 was one of those years. On June 5 war broke out in the Middle East, pitting Israel against Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, and Algeria. Backed by the Soviet Union, Arab forces declared that they would totally destroy the Jewish state, or, as they called it, the “Zionist entity.” From Egypt Radio Cairo announced, “The existence of Israel has continued too long. . . . The great hour has come. The battle has come in which we shall destroy Israel.” Everyone in Israel and in the Jewish communities around the world took these words seriously. The small nation had never been accepted by its neighbors in the region, and since 1948 these hostile neighbors had vowed to wipe it out.

Abstract:
Abstract This chapter examines Russia’s renewed assertiveness in Africa during Vladimir Putin’s first two terms as president. Russia’s strategic ambitions in Africa were largely overlooked by the U.S. and allegedly welcomed by France, which allowed it to advance its goals with little Western pushback. Putin’s approach to Africa blended former Prime Minister Yevgeny Primakov’s playbook with inputs from the Federation Council and experts affiliated with the Moscow-based Institute of African Studies. Russia strengthened its ties with African countries facing isolation from the West, such as Sudan and Zimbabwe, and reasserted itself as a great power in North Africa by resolving debt disputes with Algeria and Libya. However, Russia also revealed continent-wide influence aspirations, which saw it deepen partnerships with key regional powers, such as South Africa, Ethiopia, and Nigeria. Russia also directly engaged with Western partners. An early example of this strategy was Putin’s April 2001 meeting with Gabon’s President Omar Bongo, who had a decades-long partnership with France. Putin’s April 2005 meeting with his Egyptian counterpart Hosni Mubarak in Cairo strengthened Russia–Egypt relations.

Abstract:
Abstract Megacities are mainly located in developing countries and face challenges in building infrastructures to ensure modern and clean energy access to citizens while coping with lifestyle changes. This paper assesses the renewables impact on energy transition for megacities (supply and all demand sectors) using the Greater Cairo megacity as case study. The MARKAL-EFOM System (TIMES) model is applied to the Greater Cairo region to investigate how energy supply and demand will evolve till 2050, and what are the impacts in terms of final energy consumption, GHG emissions, as well as share of renewable energy sources consumption in total final energy consumption considering two different emissions mitigation caps, namely 50% and 80%. Compared to the business as usual scenario, the final energy consumption decreases of 46 PJ and 57 PJ respectively in the scenarios with the CO2 cap of 50% and 80%. Besides, the TIMES-Greater Cairo shows that the fossil free energy options are limited and thus, in order to meet the emission cap, it is necessary to deploy more energy efficient technologies than in the scenarios without the cap. Transport is the sector with the higher CO2 emissions contribution and the optimization results show that it may lower the environmental impact of 28% by 2050 with the sole deployment of more efficient technologies.
