Regeneration programmes: Enforcing the right to housing or fostering gentrification? The example of Bankside in London

Author

Listed:
  • Leccis, Francesca

Abstract

The aim of any regeneration programme is to transform ruined and abandoned areas into new vibrant and attractive centres. However, this supposedly marvellous project often hides the drawback of pricing former residents out of their neighbourhood, thus fostering the process commonly named “gentrification”.
