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 SeoulŠtudija podaja ilustrativno primerjavo naseljenih objektov brez lastnika in gentrificiranih območij ter sledi genealogiji in pojavu skrajne revščine v srcu najbogatejšega predela Seoula. Vasi Poi in Guryong kot prostora urbanega boja za preživetje nista nastali kot spontani neformalni naselji, temveč kot taborišči deprivilegiranih družbenih skupin, ki so jih na to lokacijo prisilno premestile državne oblasti. Po treh desetletjih sta se vasi Poi in Guryong razrastli in postali nezaželen prostor in nasprotni pol stanovanjskega kompleksa Tower Place, ki je danes ena najbolj trendovskih soseščin v Seoulu. Na eni strani vasi Poi in Guryong razseljenim osebam ponujata soliden skupnostni prostor, ki pa je zdaj postal izjemno dragocena nepremičnina, ki jo mestne oblasti želijo na novo pozidati. V članku analiziramo konflikt med prebivalci, pri čemer namen ni predstaviti zgolj pripoved o razlastninjenju revnih, temveč postaviti vprašanje o družbeni konstrukciji neenakosti in revščine v SeouluTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaUniverza v Ljubljani, Fakulteta za družbene vede
