Abstract

Lefebvre (1974), Bhabha (1994) and Soja (1996), classified the condition of urban marginality as a Third Space, which is an expression of ambivalent reality of urban wealth in a city. Marginality in urban setting is represented through urban slum, a phenomenon that is usually driven by poverty and the unregulated occupation of urban space, which most cities in the Eastern face. The paper will compare approaches of First and Second Space related to the creation of Third Space, especially the notion of the Third Space through the inner-city village of Kampung Kota in Surabaya. It is neither a real slum nor is it a really poor area; the houses are permanently built, and have legal ownership or tenant documents. Yet, although located in the center of Surabaya it has the social condition of a combination between urban and rural, hence alluding to the notion of hybridization of social, as characterized by the Third Space. While the existence of �Kampung Kota� brings benefits to the city (it is the home of services industry workers mostly working in the central city area) it is also under constant threat as the location has high land value leading to ongoing negotiations and insecurity for the residents. The paper also explores threats of and possible prospects of �Kampung Kota�.
