Abstract

In this essay the author tries to explain the process of gentrification, situating the phenomenon in the broader scope of the uneven development in the space economy of capitalism. In this sense, he puts in evidence the articulation of different scales, the recent social changes, and the economic cycles; factors which act upon the determination of nature, the assumed form, and the limits of the process. Finally, the author identifies tendencies and obstacles associated with the unfolding future of gentrification.
