This article contrasts gentrification and related processes of displacement across two of Tanzania’s fastest-growing cities. Some groups are particularly vulnerable to gentrification, with smallholder farmers particularly vulnerable on the periphery, and tenants particularly vulnerable near the centre. In the cities’ newly urbanizing peripheries, many of the longest-standing residents from farming families sell their land to upwardly mobile newcomers moving out from the city centre. In inner-city informal settlements, populations have become far denser and tenants outnumber owners, whilst developers and other large formal-sector land users are potentially interested in securing the land for upmarket residential or non-residential uses. Bringing the planning system and the informal settlements into better alignment is important, but regularization efforts can unnecessarily amplify the risks of exclusionary gentrification. While better-organized communities should be able to mitigate these risks, for this to be achieved the most vulnerable groups need to be adequately represented.

坦桑尼亚达累斯萨拉姆和姆万扎的土地关系搅动和高级化进程的反差

本文对比了坦桑尼亚两个增长最快的城市的中产阶级化及其相关的流离失所过程。一些群体特别容易受到中产阶级化的影响,外围地区的小农尤其脆弱,而在中心附近的房客尤其脆弱。在城市新近城市化的边缘地区,许多农业家庭中历史最悠久的居民将土地卖给从市中心出来的向上流动的新移民。在城市内的非正式定居点,人口变得更加稠密,租户的数量超过了所有者,而开发商和其他大型正规部门的土地使用者可能对为高级住宅或非住宅用途获得土地感兴趣。重要的是使规划系统与非正式住区更好地保持一致,但是正规化工作可能会不必要地放大排他性高档化的风险。虽然组织更好的社区应该能够减轻这些风险,但是要实现这一目标,最弱势群体需要有足够的代表权。
