<![CDATA[Gentrification is a phenomenon that is increasingly prevalent in various parts of the world. Starting with Ruth Glass's discussion of gentrification in Islington, London, in 1964, the discourse on the phenomenon of gentrification continues to grow. Gentrification research from the Global North appears more visible in international publications than Global South scholarship, likely due to database and terminological biases rather than an actual scarcity of the phenomenon. This paper aims to analyze who the actors are, how the process occurs, and its impact on social, economic, cultural, and urban spatial conditions in Indonesia. The methods used are a Systematic Literature Review and Bibliometric Analysis of previous studies on urban gentrification in Indonesia. Eleven cases were collected from various major cities in Indonesia, including Jakarta, Bandung, Yogyakarta, Semarang, and Bali. The results show that the actors involved in urban gentrification in Indonesia are diverse, with large investors and the government acting as super gentrifiers. Types of gentrifications range from tourism-led gentrification, market-led gentrification, heritage-led gentrification, and state-led gentrification. The processes occur over varying timescales and are particularly rapid in cases developed by large investors and the government, resulting in displacement. The impacts range from spatial changes in areas experiencing urban decay to desirable areas for living, even becoming high-value areas. However, negative impacts need to be anticipated, such as displacement, both symbolic and indirect, as well as direct evictions, changes in house, land, and rental prices, and changes in values and culture.]]>
