Gentrifcation is a global process that the United Nations now sees as a human rights issue. This new
Planetary Gentrifcation Reader follows on from the editors’ 2010 volume, The Gentrifcation Reader, and
provides a more longitudinal (backward and forward in time) and broader (turning away from Anglo-/
Euro-American hegemony) sense of developments in gentrifcation studies over time and space,
drawing on key readings that refect the development of cutting-edge debates.
Revisiting new debates over the histories of gentrifcation, thinking through comparative urbanism
on gentrifcation, considering new waves and types of gentrifcation, and giving much more focus to
resistance to gentrifcation, this is a stellar collection of writings on this critical issue.
Like in their 2010 Reader, the editors, who are internationally renowned experts in the feld, include
insightful commentary and suggested further reading. The book is essential reading for students and
researchers in urban studies, urban planning, human geography, sociology, and housing studies and for
those seeking to fght this socially unjust process.
