Abstract

Regentrification has been a controversial and often debated topic since it was first observed in the late 1960s. This paper expands the understanding of regentrification through the development of a new hybrid Tiebout‐Alonso model that explicitly introduces: (i) public transportation as an alternative mode of commute to automobile and (ii) a detailed modelling of housing and land demand so that the size of housing driven force against that of opposing commuting driven force is in line with the empirical estimates of existing literature. We find that government policies (school district boundary alteration, taxes and subsidies for commuters) have substantial effects on the degree of regentrification and concentration of poverty around central cities. La regentrificación ha sido un tema controvertido, y a menudo debatido, desde que se observó por primera vez a finales de la década de 1960. Este artículo amplía la comprensión de la regentrificación a través del desarrollo de un nuevo modelo híbrido Tiebout‐Alonso, que introduce explícitamente: (i) el transporte público como medio alternativo al desplazamiento diario al trabajo en automóvil y (ii) una modelización detallada de la demanda de vivienda y de suelo, de modo que el tamaño de la fuerza impulsora de la vivienda frente al de la fuerza impulsora de la oposición a los desplazamientos diarios al trabajo coincida con las estimaciones empíricas de la bibliografía existente. Se encontró que las políticas gubernamentales (la alteración de los límites de los distritos escolares, los impuestos y los subsidios a quienes se desplazan diariamente al trabajo) tienen efectos sustanciales en el grado de regentrificación y concentración de la pobreza alrededor de las ciudades centrales. リジェントリフィケーション (regentrification)は、1960年代の後期に初めて認められて以来、見解が分かれており、多く議論されてきたトピックである。本稿では、TieboutモデルとAlonsoモデルをハイブリッドした新しいモデルの開発を通じて、リジェントリフィケーションの理解を深める。この新しいモデルは、通勤による、拮抗する駆動力の大きさに対する住宅による駆動力の大きさが既存研究による実証的推定値に一致するように、1)自家用車による通勤手段の代替様式としての公共交通機関と、2)住宅と土地の需要の詳細なモデル化を明示的に導入する。行政の政策 (学区の変更、通勤通学者への課税と補助)が、リジェントリフィケーションの程度と都市中心部の周辺の貧困の集中にかなりの影響を与えていることがわかる。
