Professor David Wilson has been named a Center for Advanced Study (CAS) 2021-2022 Associate.

His project: "Third-Wave Gentrification and the Plight of Chicago's South Side" focuses on the social, psychic, and economic impacts of a third wave gentrification on Chicago's South Side that currently faces the encroachment of the city's gentrification frontier; as well as understanding the entanglement of new pro-and anti-gentrification alliance, community tensions, governance tactics, and definitions of poor race-class populations that re-make this area and its people in unknown ways.
