La Librairie du Tiers Monde in Algiers takes its name from the city's role as a hub for liberation movements in the 1960s-70s. When Algeria privatized bookshops in the 1990s, six employees collectively bought this one. They kept it open during the civil war despite death threats. Today it remains a key space for political and literary life.

Beautiful #infographic of aerial traffic out of #Beirut and #Damascus, from the 1968 master plan of Damascus, by Michel Écochard.
There are many beautiful things to note, One of my favourite is that the map spreads eastwards as well as westwards. Riyadh and Jaddah are there, but there are fewer flights than to Delhi, Karachi, and Bombay.
I wonder what a similar infographic would look like today.
