  • Revanchist noösphere frontiers

    Open Access•Elvin Wyly•ARTICLE•Dialogues in Urban Research•2026

    Revanchism has evolved—in both ideological and material-embodied senses of the term—in the decades since Neil Smith's conceptualization in The New Urban Frontier , and since the wave of poststructuralist critiques elicited by David Harvey's Condition of Postmodernity . Most troubling are adaptive cybernetic fusions of 21st century computational life with recrudescent 19th-century Social Darwinist hierarchies of human nature and human worth. This …

  • The relative importance of greening in attracting gentrifiers to urban Vancouver and suburban Calgary neighbourhoods

    Open Access•Jessica Quinton, Lydia Nesbitt et al.•ARTICLE•Urban Studies•2026•Referencias: 69

    Green gentrification describes how greening neighbourhoods (e.g. by creating parks, community gardens, etc.) can result in higher-income households moving in and displacing/excluding marginalised residents. While some researchers assert that greening attracts higher-income households, this has rarely been empirically tested. Further, green gentrification research has focussed almost exclusively on greening attracting households to urban neighbour…

  • America's urban systems of conspirituality

    Open Access•Elvin Wyly•ARTICLE•Dialogues in Urban Research•2025

    Millions of Americans believe Donald Trump's claim that the 2020 U.S. Presidential election was ‘rigged’. This commentary presents evidence of the remarkably diverse acceptance of this claim in the American population. For nearly half a century, ever since Reagan, right-wing operatives have been working to capture and return fire with the most advanced analytical tools of the post-structuralist academic Left. In the last dozen years these strateg…

  • Geographies of terror and trust

    Open Access•Elvin Wyly•ARTICLE•Dialogues in Human Geography•2025•Referencias: 2

    We are in the midst of multiple quantitative-cultural revolutions produced by the accelerating coevolution of capital, code, and cognition. Spoofs, hoaxes, conspiracies, and paranoia proliferate along with genuine advances in legitimate scientific and sociocultural inquiry. Matthew Hannah provides essential guidance to help us navigate dangerous spaces of multidimensional confusion, in which we must work to build and maintain solidarities of scie…

  • Regarding the Pain of Indigenous Others

    Open Access•Elvin Wyly•ARTICLE•Dialogues in Urban Research•2024

    Cities are real, physical, material concentrations of human activities and built environments, but they are also portals that allow and require unique ways of perceiving relations across space and time. Photography, especially the genre of seductive urban landscape views so often deployed by airlines, realtors, and city boosters, distorts our perceptions of space-time. These distortions are particularly serious in the unique configuration of Indi…

  • Human rights, human wrongs

    Open Access•Elvin Wyly•ARTICLE•Dialogues in Urban Research•2024

    Somaiyeh Falahat, Libby Porter, Justin Tse, and Ryan Walker have offered eloquent and powerful critiques of an attempt to interpret images and representations of the Vancouver global city-region in the spirit of crime-scene photographs. This response seeks to engage these valuable critiques in relation to Cindi Katz's work on social reproduction and Gayatri Spivak's conceptualisation of planetarity

  • The moral rent gap

    Open Access•Elvin Wyly•ARTICLE•Dialogues in Urban Research•2023

    For more than 40 years, Neil Smith's rent gap theory of gentrification has been one of the most influential concepts in critical urban research. In recent years, however, the rent gap has been challenged as an economically deterministic tool suitable only for the study of inner city land parcels in certain types of deindustrializing cities of the Global North. But what if the rent gap was never really about economics, but instead about moral outr…

  • Dracula urbanism and smart cities in style and substance

    Open Access•David Wilson, Elvin Wyly•ARTICLE•Dialogues in Urban Research•2023

    Dialogues in Urban Research was established to create critical yet constructive conversations about cities and urbanization at a perilous but fascinating historical-geographical conjuncture. In this vein, we thank our four interlocuters, Emma Colven, Renee Tapp, Delik Hudalah, Dallas Rogers, and Christopher Silver, for their provocative comments on our manuscript. There is much food for thought in their ideas. In response to their comments, we in…

  • Toward a Dracula urbanism

    Open Access•David Wilson, Elvin Wyly•ARTICLE•Dialogues in Urban Research•2023

    We study two places experiencing the rise of both the real-estate state and smart city building, Jakarta, Indonesia and Flint, USA. Our core thesis: these real-estate states work through and make a kind of urbanism that we term Dracula urbanism. We identify Dracula urbanism as a deep-reaching, human-punishing unfolding that is simultaneously a state of mind, a mode of institutional operation, a vision of people, one gaze onto growth's true needs …

  • How common is greening in gentrifying areas

    Jessica Quinton, Lydia Nesbitt et al.•ARTICLE•Urban Geography•2023•Citada por: 5•Referencias: 9

    Green gentrification occurs when urban greening/sustainability interventions become implicated in neighbourhood upgrading and displacement of existing residents. However, current emphasis on urban sustainability in planning/policy agendas, coupled with political-economic factors producing uneven development, lead us to ask whether all gentrifying areas experience greening. Our descriptive analysis identified gentrifying areas in Vancouver, Calgar…

    Open Access•Elvin Wyly, David Wilson•ARTICLE•Dialogues in Urban Research•2023•Referencias: 8

    Cities are physical, material concentrations of people and structures, but they are also ongoing conversations of intergenerational negotiation, communication, competition, conflict, and cooperation. Recently, Emma Colven, Renee Tapp, Delik Hudalah, Dallas Rogers, and Christopher Silver have offered valuable critical contributions to this dialogue in urban research, evaluating the utility and limitations of a new metaphor, Dracula Urbanism, for u…

    The growth of 'Yes In My Back Yard' (YIMBY) activism seems at first a simple story of a new social movement led by a new generation frustrated with the housing supply shortages created by decades of Not In My Back Yard (NIMBY) conservative spatial privilege and exclusion. Yet YIMBY/NIMBY dialectics reflect more fundamental transformations of intergenerational inequalities between past and present amidst today's multiple scales of intensifying com…

    Elvin Wyly•ARTICLE•Urban Geography•2021•Citada por: 2•Referencias: 5

    Since the turn of the century, the study of urbanism has flourished in powerful disciplines and institutions that had long ignored cities. At the same time, for those working in fields with long urban traditions it has been more difficult to find common ground, to work contstructively through our differences as we search for justice amidst the evolutionary inequalities of an urbanizing planet. People in cities, as well as people who do urban “res…

    The formal institutional entity we today call ‘Geography’ only exists because of nineteenth‐century struggles over the science, theology, and politics of human evolution. Old struggles continue even as today’s geographic thought evolves at an accelerating pace, amidst the dramatic transformations wrought by CRISPR gene‐editing technoscience and the consolidation of computational‐cultural forms of accumulation in surveillance capitalism.

    Hackworth and Smith’s ‘Changing State of Gentrification’, published in 2001 and focused on New York City, is a definitive landmark. As you read these words, ‘New York City 2001’ might seem distant coordinates in the accelerating time‐space of knowledge production, but it’s not very far when understood in the time horizon of humanity’s urban evolution. Hackworth and Smith’s work helps us rethink today’s theoretical frontiers (especially postcoloni…

    On the leading edges of multidimensional cultural evolution in an urbanizing capitalism that is becoming ever more cosmopolitan and competitive, universities promise contradictory blends of diversity, inclusion, and fair, open access to the inherent exclusivity of the means of production of inequality: human capital. In this paper, we extend David Harvey’s theorization of the urbanization of consciousness and accumulation by dispossession in orde…

  • Hayek in the cloud

    Elvin Wyly, Joseph P Daniels et al.•ARTICLE•City•2018•Citada por: 3•Referencias: 16

    Smart cities theory and policy emphasizes the new—new cities, new technologies, and new possibilities of efficiency, innovation, and optimization. While some of the technological details of smart cities are indeed new, the underlying philosophy involves economic and policy traditions built in the mid-20th century—which were in turn premised on 19th-century epistemological revolutions. In this paper, we suggest that today’s Silicon Valley smart-ci…

    A decade ago, Roger Keil launched the “Global Suburbanisms” project, a large, transnational collaborative investigation of the intricate patterns and processes reshaping metropolitan peripheries around the world. In this commentary, I consider how Keil’s project offers fresh insights on the speed and spatiality of global evolution as well as current debates between postcolonial urbanism and planetary urbanization

    Displacement has been at the centre of heated analytical and political debates over gentrification and urban change for almost 40 years. A new generation of quantitative research has provided new evidence of the limited (and sometimes counter-intuitive) extent of displacement, supporting broader theoretical and political arguments favouring mixed-income redevelopment and other forms of gentrification. This paper offers a critical challenge to thi…

    The worst global financial crisis since the Great Depression has drawn worldwide attention to America's subprime mortgage sector and its linkages with predatory exploitation in working-class and racially marginalized communities. During nearly two decades of expansion, agents of subprime capital fought regulation and reform by (1) using the doctrine of risk-based pricing to equate financial innovation with democratized access to capital, (2) appe…

  • A Model for Identifying Gentrified Areas With Census Data

    Daniel J Hammel, Elvin Wyly et al.•ARTICLE•Urban Geography•1996•Citada por: 83•Referencias: 3

    Empirical research on gentrification suffers from a dichotomy between richly detailed neighborhood case studies and macro-scale, census-based analyses, perpetuating uncertainty over the extent and timing of gentrified areas in American cities. We develop a model relating tract-level census statistics to the results of a detailed field survey of 24 census tracts in Minneapolis-St. Paul. We use stepwise and canonical discriminant analysis to select…

    Predatory home mortgage lending has become a central concern for housing research, public policy and community activism in US cities. Regulatory attempts to stop abuses, however, are undermined by claims that ‘predatory’ cannot be defined or distinguished from legitimate subprime lending, and claims that the industry performs a public service by meeting the needs of low‐income, high‐risk consumers (many of them racially marginalized) who would ha…

    Recent discussions of the 'geography of gentrification' highlight the need for comparative analysis of the nature and consequences of inner-city transformation. In this paper, the authors map the effects of housing-market and policy changes in the 1990s, focusing on 23 large cities in the USA. Using evidence from field surveys and a mortgage-lending database, they measure the class selectivity of gentrification and its relation to processes of ra…

    The recession of the early 1990s drew widespread attention to rising poverty and fiscal distress in inner-ring suburbs, and the next downturn will doubtless revive fears that suburbia could endure the same fate as the inner city. The authors challenge conventional urban theory, which explains suburban decline primarily in terms of who moves in and who moves out, by drawing on the literatures concerning the circulation of capital in the built envi…

    In 2008, there will be at least 2.5 million new foreclosures in the United States. Record levels of mortgage delinquency, default, and foreclosure are causing widespread hardship in cities and suburbs across America, and causing repeated destabilization of global credit and investment markets. In this Forum, six housing specialists unravel the complex connections between urban geography, subprime lending, and foreclosure. Although a wide variety …

    America is now half a decade into the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression, triggered by a deeply racialized "innovation" at the social and spatial margin-risky, high-cost mortgage lending-that went mainstream. Predatory capital perfected its operations in poor and working-class black neighborhoods of the deindustrializing inner city, before pursuing the greater volume available across a multiracial array of postindustrial Sun Belt su…

    Open Access•Elvin Wyly, Kathe Newman et al.•ARTICLE•Environment and Planning A…•2010•Citada por: 32•Referencias: 23

    The capitalization of urban property markets intensifies the contradictions between housing as use-value affordability versus exchange-value asset accumulation, and exacerbates displacement pressures. Policies designed to deal with these contradictions-public housing and rent regulations-allow some low-income renters to resist displacement, particularly in gentrifying neighborhoods. Unfortunately, the resulting empirical configuration has been in…

    Research and policy on the geography of assisted housing is dominated by a powerful conventional wisdom: Project-based subsidies are presumptively bad because they anchor assisted households in poor, racially segregated neighborhoods, while vouchers are inherently good because they promote deconcentration and integration through tenant choice. Unfortunately, this consensus is based on geographical assumptions that have been subverted by the drama…

    As capitalist urbanisation evolves, so too does gentrification. Theories and experiences that have anchored the reference points of gentrification in the Global North for half a century are now rapidly evolving into more cosmopolitan, dynamic world urban systems of variegated gentrifications. These trends seem to promise a long-overdue postcolonial provincialisation of the entrenched Global North bias of urban theory. Yet there is a jarring parad…

    In American popular discourse and policy debates, “public housing” conjures images of “the projects”—dysfunctional neighborhood imprints of a discredited welfare state.

    Recent scholarship on race and ethnicity has unpacked taken-for-granted categories of difference and the processes of social construction of racialized identities. In the USA, however, legal and policy frameworks established during the Civil Rights struggles of the 1960s and 1970s are based on problematic, reified categories of race and ethnicity. Yet these frameworks have opened limited opportunities for activist challenges, and among the most s…

  • The Disappearance of Race in Mortgage Lending

    Open Access•Elvin Wyly, Elvin K Wyly et al.•ARTICLE•Economic Geography•2002•Citada por: 9•Referencias: 25

    In the past 25 years, housing researchers, governmental regulators, industry advocates, and community activists have all relied on a unified analytical infrastructure that was developed in the 1970s to monitor racial and geographic inequalities in U.S. housing markets. Since the mid‐1990s, however, several developments in the housing finance sector have undermined a key element of this system: data collected under the auspices of the Home Mortgag…

  • Social polarization and the politics of low income mortgage lending in the united states

    J Hackworth, Elvin Wyly•ARTICLE•Geografiska Annaler Series B…•2003•Citada por: 2•Referencias: 11

    The structured inequalities of capital investment and disinvestment are prominent themes in critical urban and regional research, but many accounts portray ‘capital’ as a global, faceless and placeless abstraction operating according to a hidden, unitary logic. Sweeping political‐economic shifts in the last generation demonstrate that capital may shape urban and regional processes in many different ways, and each of these manifestations creates d…

  • Has mortgage capital found an inner‐city spatial fix?

    Elvin Wyly, Elvin K Wyly et al.•ARTICLE•Housing Policy Debate•2004

    For two generations, urbanists have analyzed how residential mortgage lending reflects and reinforces inner‐city inequality. Yet the basic dichotomies of this literature have been eroded by parallel developments in community organizing, public policy, and restructuring of financial services. Securitization, institutional structure, and increasingly sophisticated market segmentation have altered the relationship between mortgage capital and the in…

  • Geographies of mortgage market segmentation

    Kathe Newman, Elvin Wyly et al.•ARTICLE•Housing Studies•2004•Citada por: 25•Referencias: 19

    Since the late 1980s, mutually reinforcing trends in economic growth, public policy, and community activism have fostered a wave of residential mortgage lending to ‘underserved markets’ in US cities. Yet many of the changes in housing finance that supported sustainable home ownership also lured a new generation of subprime and predatory credit institutions specialising in high-cost, high-risk lending. For many urban and minority neighbourhoods, t…

  • Gentrification, Segregation, and Discrimination in the American Urban System

    Open Access•Elvin Wyly, Elvin K Wyly et al.•ARTICLE•Environment and Planning A…•2004•Citada por: 63•Referencias: 26

    Recent discussions of the 'geography of gentrification' highlight the need for comparative analysis of the nature and consequences of inner-city transformation. In this paper, the authors map the effects of housing-market and policy changes in the 1990s, focusing on 23 large cities in the USA. Using evidence from field surveys and a mortgage-lending database, they measure the class selectivity of gentrification and its relation to processes of ra…

    Predatory home mortgage lending has become a central concern for housing research, public policy and community activism in US cities. Regulatory attempts to stop abuses, however, are undermined by claims that ‘predatory’ cannot be defined or distinguished from legitimate subprime lending, and claims that the industry performs a public service by meeting the needs of low‐income, high‐risk consumers (many of them racially marginalized) who would ha…

  • The Right to Stay Put, Revisited

    Open Access•Kathe Newman, Elvin Wyly et al.•ARTICLE•Urban Studies•2006•Citada por: 223•Referencias: 22

    Displacement has been at the centre of heated analytical and political debates over gentrification and urban change for almost 40 years. A new generation of quantitative research has provided new evidence of the limited (and sometimes counter-intuitive) extent of displacement, supporting broader theoretical and political arguments favouring mixed-income redevelopment and other forms of gentrification. This paper offers a critical challenge to thi…
