It revisits new debates over the histories of gentrification, thinking through comparative urbanism, considering new waves and types of gentrification, and giving more focus to resistance to gentrification. The book is essential reading for students and researchers in urban studies, urban planning, human geography, sociology, and housing studies, as well as those seeking to fight this socially unjust process.

Gentrification, a pervasive global phenomenon, has garnered the attention of the United Nations as a critical human rights concern. Building upon the editors' 2010 volume, "The Gentrification Reader," this new publication, titled "Planetary Gentrification Reader," offers a comprehensive and multifaceted perspective on the evolution of gentrification studies across time and space. It delves into cutting-edge debates, broadening its scope beyond Anglo-American and Euro-centric hegemony, and incorporating key readings that reflect the dynamic development of this field.

The book explores new debates surrounding the historical trajectories of gentrification, examines comparative urbanism in the context of gentrification, considers emerging waves and types of gentrification, and places significant emphasis on resistance to gentrification. Drawing upon the expertise of internationally renowned experts in the field, the editors provide insightful commentary and suggest valuable further readings.

"Planetary Gentrification Reader" serves as an indispensable resource for students, researchers, urban planners, human geographers, sociologists, and housing scholars. It sheds light on the complex dynamics driving gentrification, challenges its social injustices, and provides insights into strategies for combating this transformative process. By engaging with this book, readers can deepen their understanding of the multifaceted impacts of gentrification on cities, communities, and individuals worldwide.
