With the rise of wealth inequalities, our cities are changing
dramatically. This collection critically engages with and advances
existing debates on the super-rich and their roles in these
transformations. An interdisciplinary range of contributions from
international experts including sociologists, geographers,
historians, discourse analysts, and urban studies specialists
reveal crucial aspects of the real estate investment practices of
the super-rich, their social spaces in the city as well as the
distinct influence of the super-rich on the transformation of four
key cities: London, Tokyo, Singapore and Hong Kong. By drawing
together diverse disciplines, perspectives, and experiences across
different geographical contexts, this book offers a fresh,
comparative, and nuanced take on the super-rich and the 1% city, as
well as a solid, empirically and theoretically grounded basis to
think about future research questions and policy implications.
