ABSTRACT:
This paper identifies a range of gentrification research topics meriting further attention in the 1990s. These topics are situated in the theoretical contexts stressing the primacy of production of gentrifiable spaces and consumption of housing by renovators. The complementarity of consensus and conflict in community formation is also noted. Five hypotheses that could be tested with 1990 census data are proposed. They deal with: the role of young households, gender, the proximity of home and workplace, residential segregation, and urban/rural similarities in community conflict. The paper ends with an acknowledgment of the need for continued theoretical and methodological diversity in the field.
