On behalf of Dr. Stefano Bloch...
Hello SGDErs,
This email about my newest paper is not a self-kudos, but rather kudos to all the members of the School who I credit with making this behemoth of paper possible, especially Ryan, Enrique, and of course Indu.
This article will appear in a volume with several critical responses and my rejoinder over time, so check back in to see how much people do or do not agree with my provocation to do away with the label of "gentrification."
The PDF is attached HERE, and here is the on-line-first version: https://journals.sagepub.com/eprint/CEHNEFGKB8ZS5SHKSYEB/full
And here is my acknowledgments section followed by the citation of some colleagues who may not even know I have been so closely reading their work:
