“…In spite of different meaning between Lefebvre and Harvey, right to the city is interpreted as the right of urban inhabitant to be involved and humanized in every urban planning process. Building from Lefebvre and Harvey argument there are two important aspects within the right to the city, right to be lived and right to participation (Fernandes, 2007;Mathivet, 2010;Njoh, 2017). However, this paper focus on participation as the main topic of discussion.…”

Right to the city become one of essential point in New Urban Agenda discussion, as the adoption of Sustainable Development Goals which includes point 11 on Sustainable Cities and Human Settlements. Right to the city is a concept which encloses political power, land ownership, and social justice within globalized cities which run into rapid change. Lefebvre describes the right to the city as people cry and demand a transformed and renewed urban life. Participation is seen as a basic right in the concept of the right to the city. This article drawing on a study case of relocation of Malioboro’s parking attendants. The relocation itself was one of the policies to revitalize tourism area along Malioboro street. In the process, there are some resistances from Malioboro’s parking attendants emerge as their concern on their sustainability after the relocation into the new place. Based on the field research, this article concludes that the process of participation that occurs does not meet up with parking attendants aspiration and the process is ruined by the government. Public participation is ineffective at the process and ruined as the government intervention in Malioboro parking attendants organization. The ineffectiveness of public participation is due to the logic of technocratic participation and the government's informal approach to some parking attendants.

“…The development of vulnerable individuals' and communities' rights demonstrates adverse impacts on health, food, water, and housing because vulnerable groups such as minorities and women confide in the utility of forest, agricultural land, and water resources for survival and development (Addaney et al, 2018). Concerning those interlinkages, there are particular human rights violations and affected groups, which may cause further social discrimination, including assimilation, exclusion, racial and gender imbalance (Chowdhury et al, 2017;McGranahan et al, 2016;Njoh, 2017;Ogura, 1996;Safa, 1984;Senese & Wilson, 2013). Functioning services of ecosystems provide clean drinking water, nutrition, food potency and resilience (Addaney et al, 2018;Delgado-Ramos, 2015;Petrasek, 2014;Rossi-Espagnet, 1983), as well as contribute directly and indirectly to recreation, land fertility, protection from natural hazards, as well as to people's mental health and well-being anywhere in the world (Addaney et al, 2018).…”

Urbanization is ongoing and its processes infringe upon human rights, along with creating opportunities for people. This systematic literature review gives an overview of the state of research on the impacts of urbanization processes on human rights. The primary literature corpus exists of case studies in the regions of developing and to a lesser extent of emerging and, still lesser extent, developed countries. Urbanization has mainly impacted socio-culturaleconomic rights, such as an adequate standard of living or access to medical services; however, other human rights are also of concern, such as non-discrimination. Apart from those, the state of research also considers the linkages to other global change processes, contextual settings, and local problems such as environmental degradation. It also reports on the solutions to overcome the adverse impacts through planning, fair access rights, and sustainable land use.

“…Sementara itu Harvey (2012) mengembangkan konsepsi hak atas kota sebagai kekuatan kolektif untuk merubah dan mendesain penataan kota. Penataan perkotaan merupakan wujud kekuatan kolektif tersebut mampu mengatur proses urbanisasi baik secara fundamental maupun radikal (Mathivet, 2010;Njoh, 2017). Proses mendapatkan kekuatan tersebut merupakan bentuk bagaimana masyarakat mampu mengklaim kota mereka.…”

Gentrifikasi pada dasarnya adalah perubahan kondisi demografi dan sosio spasial kawasan perkotaan. Perubahan yang terjadi membawa munculnya eskalasi-eskalasi pergolakan masyarakat dalam melawan proses tersebut. Transformasi pola surplus nilai di kawasan perkotaan dan keberperanan pemerintah menciptakan kawasan perkotaan yang marketable menjadi alasan dari munculnya proses tersebut. Artikel ini bermaksud untuk mengidentifikasi gentrifikasi sebagai bentuk dari masalah sosial yang menyebabkan perubahan rupa kondisi sosial kawasan perkotaan. Terjadi transformasi dari kelas pekerja atau daerah kosong di tengah kota menjadi kawasan hunian kelas menengah dan kawasan komersial dengan masuknya modal dan kelas menengah atas. Perubahan ini kemudian membawa gentrifikasi sebagai masalah sosial yang bersifat sistemik. Sehingga tulisan ini juga mengangkat terkait bagaimana diagnosa atas gentrifikasi sebagai suatu bentuk masalah sosial di kawasan perkotaan. Diagnosis yang dibangun memperlihatkan pula sebagai masalah sosial yang berakar dari system blame approach. Proses gentrifikasi muncul dari keberadaan sistem produksi ruang yang timpang, dengan bentuk relasi produksi yang terlalu dominan oleh salah satu aktor. Berikutnya tulisan ini menganalisa bentuk-bentuk treatment yang tepat dalam penciptaan inklusifitas pembangunan sosial di ruang perkotaan. Lebih lanjut lagi tulisan ini berargumen bahwa solusi hak atas kota sebagai wadah yang tepat dalam mengatasi gentrifikasi sebagai masalah sosial yang tersistem.
