Overview
- Breaks new ground in the analysis of contemporary urban change
- Demonstrates how everyday practices, traditionally thought to be consequences of gentrification, are often actively transformed to advance gentrification
- Draws from ethnographic evidence and geographical theories of place, territory, and property to analyze the causes of gentrification in an inner-city neighborhood
