Summary

Critical urban studies and decolonial perspectives intersect in the analysis of gentrification and touristification processes in historic city centers, as demonstrated by Dr. Ibán Díaz Parra's 2022 book 'Vender una ciudad.' The study examines these phenomena through a comparative lens across Mexico City, Buenos Aires, and Seville, employing both qualitative and quantitative methodologies. It traces the evolution of gentrification discourse while critiquing its articulation with neoliberal urbanism and the rhetoric of returning to built heritage. The review highlights methodological rigor but cautions against potential biases in certain critical perspectives and policy discussions.
