Vu de haut, Dharavi n’est qu’un interminable alignement anarchique de petites maisons aux toits en tôle. Mais à hauteur d’homme, les ruelles étroites de ce bidonville regorgent d’une activité débordante et inépuisable : depuis la confection textile ou de poterie en passant par le recyclage du plastique de Bombay, le décor vivant du film Slumdog Millionnaire est une gigantesque usine informelle, qui génère une activité d’environ 500 millions d’euros par an. Mais ce modèle unique pourrait bientôt prendre fin, rattrapé par l’expansion d’une ville en manque d’espace, et un plan de réaménagement pharaonique.

Après les horreurs de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, Le Corbusier à repensé entièrement la notion de «civilisation machiniste» qui avait été au cœur de sa pensée et de son œuvre dans les années 1920 et 1930. Pour lui, la guerre avait prouvé que la machine pouvait se retourner contre l’homme et contre la civilisation. Il n’y avait donc pas de meilleure façon d’étudier Le Corbusier que de commencer au moment où il tentait de se définir autrement.
