In Dakar’s suburbs, where the urbanization of certain neighborhoods occurred during the period of emergency marked by the wave of rural exodus prompted by years of drought, the re-watering of the lowlands created conditions of insalubrity, which leads one to question the current use of the notion of resilience. Is it really the duty (or the power) of the people to adapt to the conditions of insalubrity into which the state has plunged them and left them for fifty years? We propose some answers here.
