Abstract

Over the past 20 years, increasing land values, a rising population and inward investment from overseas have combined to encourage the demolition and redevelopment of many large council-owned estates across London. While it is now widely speculated that this is causing gentrification and displacement, the extent to which it has forced low-income households to move away from their local community remains to a large degree conjectural and specific to those estates that have undergone special scrutiny. Given the lack of spatially disaggregated migration data that allows us to study patterns of dispersal from individual estates, in this article, we report on an attempt to use consumer-derived data (LCRs) to infer relocations at a high spatial resolution. The evidence presented suggests that around 85% of those displaced remain in London, with most remaining in borough, albeit there is evidence of an increasing number of moves out of London to the South-East and East of England.

量化国家主导的伦敦中产阶级化:使用关联的消费者和行政记录来追踪来自理事会地产的流离失所者

在过去20年里，不断上涨的土地价值、不断增长的人口和来自海外的外来投资，共同鼓励了伦敦各地许多大型市政拥有房产的拆除和重建。虽然现在人们普遍推测，这导致了中产阶级化和流离失所，但它迫使低收入家庭离开当地社区的程度在很大程度上仍然是推测性的，而且仅限于那些经过特别审查的庄园。鉴于缺乏空间分解的迁移数据，我们无法研究个体地产的迁移模式，在本文中，我们尝试使用消费者衍生数据(lcr)来推断高空间分辨率的迁移。尽管有证据表明越来越多的人从伦敦迁往英格兰东南部和东部，但仍有85%的流离失所者留在伦敦，其中大部分留在了自治市镇。

期刊介绍： Environment and Planning A: Economy and Space is a pluralist and heterodox journal of economic research, principally concerned with questions of urban and regional restructuring, globalization, inequality, and uneven development. International in outlook and interdisciplinary in spirit, the journal is positioned at the forefront of theoretical and methodological innovation, welcoming substantive and empirical contributions that probe and problematize significant issues of economic, social, and political concern, especially where these advance new approaches. The horizons of Economy and Space are wide, but themes of recurrent concern for the journal include: global production and consumption networks; urban policy and politics; race, gender, and class; economies of technology, information and knowledge; money, banking, and finance; migration and mobility; resource production and distribution; and land, housing, labor, and commodity markets. To these ends, Economy and Space values a diverse array of theories, methods, and approaches, especially where these engage with research traditions, evolving debates, and new directions in urban and regional studies, in human geography, and in allied fields such as socioeconomics and the various traditions of political economy.
