Megaprojects, Gentrification, and Tourism. A Systematic Review on Intertwined Phenomena

Within the neoliberal context of today’s urbanism, a growing number of inner-city megaprojects aim to transform brownfield sites—accompanied by gentrification and tourism. However, there is no systematic review exploring the interplay between these phenomena. This paper aims to systemize the existin...
