This book examines the forced displacement of public housing residents in Sydney’s Millers Point and The Rocks communities. It considers the strategies deployed by the government to pressure tenants to move, and the social and personal impacts of the displacement on the residents themselves. Drawing on in-depth interviews with tenants alongside government and media communications, the Millers Point case study offers a penetrating and moving analysis of gentrification and displacement in one of Australia’s oldest and more unique working class and public housing neighbourhoods. Gentrification and Displacement advances work in urban studies by charting trends in urban renewal and displacement, furthering our understanding of public housing, gentrification and the effects of forced relocation on vulnerable urban communities.

De La Place de l'étoile et Ronde de nuit à Rue des boutiques obscures, Fleurs de ruine et Dora Bruder , Patrick Modiano ne cesse d'élaborer une des très puissantes oeuvres romanesques de notre modernité. Centré sur les grandes questions de l'identité et de l'exil, des tensions de notre créativité et de nos pulsions (auto)destructrices, de la quête d'un sens qui se dérobe et nous pousse à (nous) fuir au coeur même de notre poursuite, le roman de Modiano génère et multiplie à la fois oppositions et désirs, apories et possibilités cathartiques, fascinations mortifères et dynamismes revitalisants. Si le principe d'une conceptualisation binaire se manifeste partout, il n'en est pas moins vrai que ce même principe est doublé d'une polysémie, d'une plurivocité qui accorde à l'oeuvre de Modiano une souplesse et une ouverture à bien des égards postmodernes. Les ambiguïtés qui en découlent ne sont aucunement gratuites, mais s'offrent authentiquement et discrètement oeuvrantes, ludiques et ironiques certes, mais vécues et creusées avec l'intensité paradoxale de tout ce qui reste innommable dans l'acte et le lieu obsessionnel de l'écriture. L'étude d'Alan Morris, concise et élégante, et que caractérisent une clarté exemplaire et une très fine pénétration analytique, donne à l'oeuvre de Patrick Modiano un geste critique manifestement à la hauteur de celle-ci.
