Gentrification, a process of class neighbourhood upgrading, is
being identified in a broader range of urban contexts throughout
the world. This book throws new light and evidence to bear on a
subject that deeply divides commentators on its worth and social
costs given its ability to physically improve areas but also to
displace indigenous inhabitants.
Gentrification in a Global Perspective brings together the most
recent theoretical and empirical research on gentrification at a
global scale. Each author gives an overview of gentrification in
their country so that each chapter retains a unique approach but
tackles a common theme within a shared framework. The main feature
of the book is a critical and well-written set of chapters on a
process that is currently undergoing a resurgence of interest and
one that shows no sign of abating.
