Abstract

The urban economic development that focuses on growth and privatization is marked by the growth of offices, trade and services in the city center leaving space for the poor in urban economic development space. The space of poverty produced by capitalist mechanisms and reproduced by the activities of the community groups within the space of poverty. The fact that Johar Baru subdistrict as a sub-district with the Potential Social Vulnerability Index and the Conflict Sensitivity Index located in the center of Jakarta's economic growth has demonstrated this phenomenon. Through qualitative methods with interviewing data collection techniques, observations, document studies and spatial representation in urban development planning, it was found that rioting is a representational practice of the dominance of spatial practice and practice representation at the macro level. Riot as a form of activity is build conflict-prone spaces as well as reinforces its position as a space designed by the production of urban space as a space of poverty.
