“…Other studies have highlighted how middle‐class gentrifier households also use other resources (e.g. social capital and cultural capital) to overcome constraints and acquire housing (Boterman, ). It could therefore still hold true that gentrification in the studied neighbourhoods increasingly excludes structurally disadvantaged households, effectively making the process appear ‘softer’ than it actually is (Van Criekingen, ).…”

This paper investigates the income levels and income developments of in‐migrating, out‐migrating, and sitting households in gentrifying neighbourhoods in Amsterdam over a 10‐year period (1999–2008). First, to analyse these data, this paper discusses the impact of institutional and housing market contexts on the residential‐mobility patterns of households and subsequently discusses the outcomes of gentrification processes. The general Continental‐European context and the specific context of Amsterdam are highlighted in particular. We argue that in highly regulated markets, marginal gentrification can form an important process of neighbourhood upgrading. This contrasts the gentrification stage model. Second, using a unique, individual‐level longitudinal dataset, we show that gentrifying neighbourhoods in Amsterdam arguably form cases of marginal gentrification. Recent in‐migrants possess incomes that are structurally lower than the incomes of sitting residents. However, in‐migrants experience significant incumbent upgrading after moving in, more so than the sitting population. The Amsterdam housing market, dominated by social‐rental housing, is key to explaining these mobility patterns. Yet, a gradual liberalisation of the social‐rental stock could arguably contribute to more mature forms of gentrification. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

“…In turn, this phenomenon points to class formation processes due to sentiments of cohesion, appreciation and association within homogenous (or mixed) environments.First, the Bourdieusian toolkit offers important insights into how physical space becomes socially stratified by means of the concepts of habitus and forms of capital(Bourdieu 2018). Admittedly, residential choices are stratified by levels of affordability -and thus economic capital -but qualitative studies reveal that residential choices are additionally stratified by other sorts of capital on which people draw in skilful housing strategies(Boterman 2012, Butler and Robson 2003b, Hochstenbach and Boterman 2015, Stillerman 2017. For instance, studying gentrifiers in London,Butler and Robson 33…”

Print production: Reprosentralen, University of Oslo. I am indebted to my two supervisors-Marianne Nordli Hansen and Johs. Hjellbrekke-for their invaluable help over the course of these past years. Not only have they read and re-read countless drafts and provided prompt and insightful remarks, but they have also always done so in a manner that has never made me lose faith in my own project or doubt their encouragement with regard to my pursuit of sociology. In addition to having massive respect for their sociological knowledge, I find them both to be particularly inclusive and generous in their supervision. By including me in research seminars, international workshops and networks, they have invited me to partake in a larger field of like-minded sociologists. For this invitation and so much more, I am very grateful.

“…Dicho de otra manera, los grupos sociales que posibilitaron estas cooperativas son bastante homogéneos en su condición socioeconómica, debido a su trayectoria profesional. A priori, esto permite interpretar que no existía una disposición a la mezcla y la mixtura con otros grupos sociales que también requerían solucionar problemas de vivienda, como lo sucedido en Copenhague, Dinamarca (Boterman, 2012). En este sentido, estos grupos de profesionales tuvieron la capacidad de poder decidir dónde deseaban desarrollar sus vidas y estructurar su hábitat residencial, mediante la creación de fronteras físicas que posibilitaban un disfrute interno y exclusivo de espacios públicos u otra infraestructura (Aguilar; Mateos, 2011).…”

Resumen El artículo presenta la actuación urbana de las cooperativas de vivienda cerrada en la ciudad de Viña del Mar (Chile) durante la última década del siglo XX, las cuales son puestas en diálogo y tensión con los procesos urbanos acaecidos en este territorio. A través de enfoques conceptuales que abordan la ciudad neoliberal y el estudio de la diferenciación socio-residencial del espacio urbano, se busca dar una lectura al lugar que ocupan estas cooperativas. Mediante una metodología cuantitativa descriptiva y multivariada que pretende especificar la construcción de viviendas por parte de las cooperativas y dar cuenta de la distribución espacial de la población respectivamente, se caracteriza el desarrollo de las cooperativas en tanto localización, morfología, superficie construida e inversión, para luego discutir su emplazamiento con algunas de las principales lecturas urbanas sobre la diferenciación socio-residencial. Se concluye con que la huella de las cooperativas de vivienda se difumina y se confunde con el establecimiento de la oferta inmobiliaria privada, donde, si bien los mecanismos de consecución de la vivienda distan en materia de gestión del suelo y asociatividad, ambas formas poseen variadas semejanzas tales como la presencia de espacios públicos privados, el establecimiento de fronteras físicas, la fragmentación de la trama urbana y mecanismos de acceso controlado.
