CONFLICTS AND SEGREGATION OF HOUSING CLUSTER COMMUNITIES AND ITS SURROUNDING
ABSTRACT: Since it was first
studied by Leicsh (2002), the phenomenon of housing cluster in Indonesia has
changed significantly. Fourteen years have changed everything, and these
changes are caused by local governments. Now, developers are more inclined and
prefer to build a housing cluster, and tragically it is located in the middle
of local neighborhoods. In this case, gated communities are more apparent than
fourteen years ago. Through the Mann Whitney U test, it turns out that there is
dissimilarity among people in the housing cluster with people in the local
neighborhood, and it has even shown a confrontational conflict. The issues of
the conflict revolve around conflict of interest, access-to and use-off the
road. At the same time, people in the housing cluster and local neighborhood
are segregated. Segregation in Indonesia occurs in both areas with different
tension. However, voluntary and involuntary segregation could not fully answer
the case of residential segregation in the suburb of this country. Hence, segregation
is created not because of the preferences of people in both areas, but y and
for an economic and social system of development policy. Using Critical
Discourse Analysis, this paper demonstrates the emergence of new patterns of
residential segregation, namely systemic spatial segregation.
