Airbnb and other short-term rental services are a topic of increasing concern for urban researchers, policymakers, and activists, because of the fear that short-term rentals are facilitating gentrification. This article presents a framework for analyzing the relationship between short-term rentals and gentrification, an exploratory case study of New York City, and an agenda for future res...... hiện toàn bộ

The Lure of the USA: Some Further Reflections
Environment and Planning A - Tập 22 Số 4 - Trang 551-558 - 1990
Alan Hallsworth
Wrigley has noted the burgeoning involvement of UK food retailers in the US market. In this paper, attention is drawn to a number of underlying factors that may go some way towards explaining this phenomenon. Of particular interest is the investment climate in the USA as a result of ‘Reaganomics’. Ally this both to the oligopalistic tendencies in the UK food retailing market and to the fe...... hiện toàn bộ
Making the most of community energies: Three perspectives on grassroots innovation
Environment and Planning A - Tập 48 Số 2 - Trang 407-432 - 2016
Adrian Smith, Tom Hargreaves, Sabine Hielscher, Mari Martiskainen, Gill Seyfang
Grassroots innovations for sustainability are attracting increasing policy attention. Drawing upon a wide range of empirical research into community energy in the UK, and taking recent support from national government as a case study, we apply three distinct analytical perspectives: strategic niche management, niche policy advocacy, and critical niches. Whilst the first and second perspec...... hiện toàn bộ
Intermediaries and the Governance of Choice: The Case of Green Electricity Labelling
Environment and Planning A - Tập 41 Số 8 - Trang 2014-2028 - 2009
Harald Rohracher
This paper is about the reframing of electricity markets as a strategically oriented nonstate governance activity of intermediary organisations. In particular, it is centred on the establishment of ‘green’ electricity labels by environmental and other nongovernmental organisations (NGOs) as an attempt to establish and shape a market for green electricity. Such labels serve as a ‘boundary ...... hiện toàn bộ
Beyond the Sunan Model: Trajectory and Underlying Factors of Development in Kunshan, China
Environment and Planning A - Tập 34 Số 10 - Trang 1725-1747 - 2002
Yehua Dennis Wei
Since the launch of economic reforms in the late 1970s, some cities and regions in China have been growing much faster than others, stimulating scholarly research on the forces underlying uneven development. This paper, through a case study of the emergence of Kunshan in southern Jiangsu (Sunan), shows that the orthodox Sunan model centered on the development of township and village enter...... hiện toàn bộ
Street Trees and Equity: Evaluating the Spatial Distribution of an Urban Amenity
Environment and Planning A - Tập 41 Số 11 - Trang 2651-2670 - 2009
Shawn M. Landry, Jayajit Chakraborty
While urban disamenities and pollution sources have received considerable attention in environmental justice research, few studies have examined sociospatial inequities associated with the distribution of desirable land uses. In this paper we focus on addressing this limitation by investigating the environmental equity implications of street trees—an important publicly financed amenity th...... hiện toàn bộ
Inequity Measures for Evaluations of Environmental Justice: A Case Study of Close Proximity to Highways in New York City
Environment and Planning A - Tập 37 Số 1 - Trang 21-43 - 2005
Jerry O. Jacobson, Nicolas Hengartner, Thomas A. Louis
Assessments of environmental and territorial justice are similar in that both assess whether empirical relations between the spatial arrangement of undesirable hazards (or desirable public goods and services) and sociodemographic groups are consistent with notions of social justice, evaluating the spatial distribution of benefits and burdens (outcome equity) and the process that produces ...... hiện toàn bộ
A socioecological fix to capitalist crisis and climate change? The possibilities and limits of renewable energy
Environment and Planning A - Tập 47 Số 12 - Trang 2485-2502 - 2015
James J. McCarthy
Many have argued that the burning of fossil fuels is an essential component of the socionatural metabolism of capitalism as we know it, and that the anthropogenic climate change it is causing may finally bring about capitalism’s end. In this paper, I explore the potential for, instead, a societal shift towards renewable energy sources as the dominant components of global energy supplies t...... hiện toàn bộ
Solar power, state power, and the politics of energy transition in pre-Saharan Morocco
Environment and Planning A - Tập 48 Số 3 - Trang 540-557 - 2016
Karen Rignall
In 2009, the Kingdom of Morocco embarked on the Solar Plan, an ambitious 10-year plan to become a leading solar power producer. This paper examines the genesis of the first project in the plan, a concentrated solar power plant near the pre-Saharan city of Ouarzazate, in order to explore the “energy transition” as a political as well as geographic project. I specifically address how the go...... hiện toàn bộ
