La localisation résidentielle des classes supérieures dans une ville d'Europe du Sud

Abstract

Résumé Bien que la ségrégation résidentielle des classes supérieures soit très élevée dans les villes occidentales, les études sur le sujet demeurent rares ou focalisées sur un type de quartier. Peu d’entre elles étudient l’ensemble des localisations élitaires à l’échelle d’une ville entière. Fondé sur des sources quantitatives et sur l’observation de terrain, cet article propose une carte modèle et une typologie des localisations résidentielles supérieures dans l’agglomération de Naples, et décrit leur évolution de 1861 à 2001. Il montre que les processus d’élitisation liés à la métropolisation (gentrification) s’appliquent mal à une ville en déclin comme Naples, où les élites continuent à se concentrer autour des beaux quartiers.

Vertical segregation in the apartment blocks of Athens and Budapest: A comparative study

“…Paris hosted the most well-known forms of vertical segregation in its apartment blocks of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, where bourgeois families occupied well-equipped and high-ceiling apartments of lower floors, with households of lower means occupying the servants’ quarters under the roofs (Pinçon and Pinçon-Charlot, 1989; White, 1984). Vertical segregation similar to the Parisian model arose in several other cities of continental Europe, including Montpellier, Naples (Dines, 2012; Laquerbe, 1967; Pfirsch, 2011) and Vienna. This model is waning, especially in Paris, where the upper floors have been reappraised after the installation of lifts, and where small apartments and rooms have been merged to form larger and highly sought-after dwellings.…”

Introduction to Vertical Cities: urban micro-segregation, housing markets and social reproduction

“…More recently, further research has been published on vertical segregation in Athens (Maloutas and Spyrellis, 2016), Malaga (Natera-Rivas et al, 2017), London (Flint Ashery, 2019 and Bucharest (Marcińczak and Hess, 2019). This body of work could be linked to the ethnographic research in Naples (Pfirsch, 2011;Dines, 2012;Laino, 2016Laino, , 2017 and the exploration of vertical social hierarchies in housing towers (Graham, 2015;Forrest et al, 2020). Eventually, micro-segregation is also relevant to policies which aim at promoting social and ethno-racial mix in Western European cities (Musterd, 2005;Ostendorf et al, 2010) and in North America (Tach, 2014;Hyra, 2016).…”

The role of vertical segregation in urban social processes

“…Academic interest about micro-segregation remains rather scarce and segmented. Some cities have attracted more attention than others due to both their socio-spatial structure enabling micro-segregation and the research performed on this topic (for example, Naples [12][13][14][15][16][17] ). The challenge is to bring the segmented research on micro-segregation together.…”
