Abstract:With the comprehensive implementation of urban renewal and rural revitalization nationwide, it is increasingly important to establish a theoretical analysis framework for gentrification in Chinese context. In this sense, this article takes the special issue "Gentrification and Social Space Reconstruction in Chinese context" to invite scholars who are interested in Chinese gentrification to conduct in-depth discussions on how to cross learn from each other in terms of conceptual cognition, theoretical system, local development, and practical application of gentrification in Chinese context. This article argues that the establishment of the Chinese gentrification theory requires grasping the essence of the concept of gentrification itself, but also breaking free from the constraints of the Western context. Moreover, it is called for that the popularization of Chinese gentrification needs to break away from the literal constraints of the entry itself, focus more attention on the spatial meaning represented and referred to behind the concept, in order to serve the needs of Chinese path to modernization construction.
