Abstract
This chapter explores the relationship between spatial segregation and gentrification focusing, in particular on social-mix and anti-poverty programmes that target 'deprived' and 'poor' areas in different cities and spaces worldwide, for these have been criticised for being deliberately ambiguous in their effects and for boosting a strategy of 'positive' gentrification. It discusses the gentrification a form of segregation, but it describes the change from a low-income area to an area of higher-income segregation. The chapter deals with notes on the growing field of anti-gentrification policy measures that seek to prevent and mitigate gentrification and displacement in different parts of the world. One of the nexuses between segregation and gentrification is social mixing. The nexus between gentrification and social mixing can also be traced in the production factors of gentrification. Gentrification scholars have questioned policies of social mix along several lines.
