Tartalmi leírás:
After the political and economic changes of 1989?90, the concept of gentrification
inspired many urban researchers in central and eastern Europe (CEE). Despite the
growing number of papers, there is still a substantial empirical gap concerning the
transformation of inner-city neighbourhoods in the CEE. This paper is based on
empirical data regarding the physical and social upgrading of neighbourhoods in
inner Budapest. The paper argues that gentrification in its traditional sense affects
only smaller areas of the inner city, mostly those where demolition and new housing
construction took place as an outcome of regeneration programmes. At the same
time, the old housing stock has been less affected by gentrification. This is mainly
due to the high share of owner-occupation and the social responsibility of local gov-
ernments. Thanks to renovation and new housing construction, a healthy social mix
will probably persist in the inner city of Budapest in the future.
