gerrymandering is redistricting to where one political party has an advantage over the other, while normal redistricting is just remapping districts.
Redistricting is always controlled by the state legislature following the census. It is approved by the governor and/or by the redistricting commissions in states such as Arizona and Iowa.
Gerrymandering is done so that representatives can be guaranteed to be reelected. It benefits the representative of the district they are gerrymandering.
