Esta dinámica obliga a reflexionar críticamente sobre las políticas urbanas implementadas en las últimas décadas y a repensar los modelos de desarrollo que reproducen las lógicas de desigualdad y exclusión en el espacio urbano.

Como resultado, Madrid se ha consolidado como un área exclusiva y excluyente que cuestiona el derecho a la vivienda y la ciudad de buena parte de los residentes del Área Metropolitana.

En paralelo, los procesos de gentrificación y turistificación del centro histórico han incitado el avance de un modelo urbano muy segregado, caracterizado por la centralización de la riqueza y el desplazamiento de los grupos desfavorecidos a las zonas del sureste de la metrópolis

Entre 2001 y 2021, la desigualdad social se ha mantenido en niveles muy elevados y se ha intensificado la polarización sociolaboral, con un crecimiento sostenido de la población ocupada en empleos precarios y mal remunerados

A lo largo de este período Madrid se ha consolidado, fruto de su creciente incursión en los circuitos económicos globales, el principal centro económico-financiero y político del país. Sin embargo, los resultados del espacio económico no se ven reflejados en el ámbito social.

The case of Lavapiés illustrates how gentrification and touristification are not phases of the same process, but different phenomena that interact and compete producing social inequalities, spatial reconfigurations and dynamics that undermine the right to housing and the city.

In this sense, interviewees highlight that touristification is perceived as more socially disruptive than gentrification: undermining daily life, intensifying evictions, and transforming the area into a short-term consumption landscape.

This also includes early gentrifiers —those who settled in Lavapiés in the late 1990s and early 2000s— who now feel increasingly alienated by the neighbourhood’s transformation and its turn toward tourist-driven commodification.

These processes have intensified the commodification of urban space, encouraging the emergence of an exclusive and exclusionary environment that tends to segregate social groups and everyday practices deemed undesirable.

We examine Lavapiés (Madrid) as a paradigmatic case where incomplete gentrification and extractivist touristification interact in complex and increasingly competitive ways. This simultaneity challenges conventional, sequential understandings of urban change
