Abstract enWhile the increasing weight of the global networks and supranational capital in determining the urban policies along with the acceleration of the process of globalization has led to the geographical dissemination of gentrification at the national and international level, the state has become the leading actor of the gentrification process as a result of the change in the role which has been attributed to it along with the introduction of the neoliberal economic policies. Contrary to the simple appearance of the gentrification of the first period which has been called the classical gentrification, the gentrification of the later period which has displayed itself under different forms in different spatial and temporal contexts has brought about a problem of conceptualization regarding which spatial transformation processes would be defined by that manifestation of gentrification.In this study the assertion shall be put forward that the gentrification has differentiated from other transformation processes that have emerged as a result of the implementation of urban policies in terms of the intrinsic features of the actors and the spaces in which the process has been realized, in the axis of the discussions on gentrification in the literature and the gentrification process that has taken place in İstanbul. We think that this differentiation is one of the main determining factors in shaping the policies which are implemented. Because the actors in gentrification become different from the actors in the other transformation process in terms of social and cultural capital volume which they have as well as economic capital. For this reason gentrification doesn’t occurs anyspace but take place where has materially social and cultural aura.In this respect, the aim of the study is to make comparative analysis of gentrification and the other transformation process by doing literature review. Correspondingly, the object of the study is to indicate that gentrification isn’t an urban policy; conversely, it is a framework that outlines how and where to use which urban policy
