PEMBANGUNAN INKLUSIF SEBAGAI UPAYA MEREDUKSI EKSKLUSI SOSIAL PERKOTAAN: KASUS KELOMPOK MARJINAL DI KAMPUNG SEMANGGI, SOLO, JAWA TENGAH
ABSTRACT: Since the 1980’s the
paradigm of development in developing countries, especially in urban areas, has
relied on the economic development with economic growth as the main output.
This model tends to produce poverty, deprivation, and social exclusion. Social exclusion
is a condition, in which individuals, families, and groups in the population do
not have the social and political access toward social resources, lack of
participation in social activities, and have inadequate living conditions and
facilities. This development paradigm has been criticized as it only uses
economic indicators and neglects other non-economical aspects. The challenge is
to redefine or conceptualize the development in a wider term as a continuum
process on a society or a social system led to social inclusion. It is a new
approach, which develops an open environment and involves everyone from various
backgrounds in the development process. As the development gap between rural
and urban areas is getting wider, understanding social inclusion development is
a need. Furthermore, President Joko Widodo’s (Jokowi) Nawacita declared that
the State must be present among society; therefore, the development should
start from the periphery to the centre in order to improve the quality of life,
prosperity, and democracy. This paper aims to reconstruct the values of urban
development along with the concept of social inclusion in order to increase the
quality of life, social relationships, social cohesion, social participation,
and social capital in Solo, Central Java.
