摘要

绅士化概念自提出以来，因其对城市社会空间重构过程的深刻揭示，成为国内外城市研究的热点话题。随着绅士化现象的全球性地理扩张与尺度重构，绅士化概念的泛化与内涵的争议性演变给城市政策带来重要挑战，亟需系统性梳理和整合。本研究基于国内外相关理论讨论和实证研究，在细致追溯绅士化研究缘起和现象起源的基础上，从形成机制、复杂效应以及衍生方向等方面揭示其从“古典绅士化”向多元化类型扩展的内在逻辑；更进一步，文章从地理区位、更新模式、空间功能、关键资源、推动主体和士绅群体六个维度，构建面向比较研究的、动态开放的绅士化类型体系。研究表明，相关绅士化争议源于地方发展环境的差异；类型体系的构建不仅揭示不同区域绅士化现象的特性，更强调超越地方语境和揭示共性。研究突破了传统绅士化研究多聚焦单一语境的局限，不仅为推动不同国家和地区绅士化现象的比较研究和理论对话奠定基础，也对推动我国新型城镇化高质量发展提供重要启示。

Abstract

With the global geographical expansion of the phenomenon of gentrification, the generalization of the concept of gentrification and the controversial evolution of its connotation across diverse contexts have posed significant challenges to urban policies, necessitating systematic theoretical integration. Based on relevant theoretical discussions and empirical studies on gentrification both domestically and internationally, this study carefully traces the origins of gentrification research and the phenomena, and reveals the internal logic of its evolution from "classic gentrification" to diversified types through an analysis of formation mechanisms, complex effects, and derivation directions. Furthermore, it constructs a dynamic and open classification system for comparative research across six dimensions: geographic locations, renewal modes, spatial functions, key resources, driving actors, and gentrifier groups. This study shows that the controversies surrounding gentrification stem from heterogeneous regional development contexts; the proposed typological framework not only reveals the unique characteristics of the phenomena in different regions, but also emphasizes transcending localized narratives to uncover universal mechanisms.
