  • Besieged citizenship : the social construction of inequality in Gangnam district, Seoul
    Kim, Jung In ; Uršič, Matjaž, 1975-
    Through an illustrative comparison of squatter settlements and gentrified spaces, this study traces the genealogy and formation of extreme poverty at the heart of the most affluent district in Seoul. ... A site of urban struggle, the villages of Poi and Guryong did not start as spontaneous informal settlements, but as relocated camps of deprivileged social groups whose dislocation was forced by state authorities. After three decades, the Poi and Guryong villages have grown to become contested sites and polar opposites of the housing complex of Tower Place that has is today one of the trendiest neighbourhoods in Seoul. On one hand, the Poi and Guryong villages provide a solid community space for those displaced, yet one which has now become exceptionally valuable real estate that officials wish to reclaim for new development. The article analyses the conflict between residents and entails more than any simple narration of the poor's disenfranchisement and raises the question of the social construction of inequalities and poverty in Seoul.
