| Research Abstract |
This study aimed at analyzing the process. of urbanization and changing principle of organizing grass roots people in the capital city if Indonesia, Jakarta, where population grew rapidly under Suharto regime (1966-1998). We have chosen a town of Lenteng Agung in South Jakarta as a field of research. We picked up a women's association aiming at promoting welfare among grassroots people. It is called PKK, which had been organized as a nationally uniform institution to mobilize people upon state initiative. Through cloth observation of its monthly meeting we tired to find out how it is functioning.
On the other hand we did interviews with the inhabitants of this town who work as peddlers and street traders. We came to find out that most of them came from their home village counting on support by his relatives and fellow villagers who had already been in this city, and they usually engage in the same trade as his fellow villagers. They still maintain strong relation and network with their

own village society and many of them are not really settled down in urban society. Therefore the newly coming-in inhabitants tend to be split into two groups, the one who are settled and involved into the activities in the formal neighboring associations and the other who are not.
We also did research at near-by traditional market in order to understand the mechanism of city formation from the aspect of circulation of commodity and movement of people. We investigated such things as the history size, and management system of the market, as well as the social-economic background of both traders and shoppers.
As a result we came to find out that the urban society is very diverse in the social strata of the inhabitants and there the market is functioning as the core of activity for the local community. Another finding is that about one third of the buyers at the market are small scale stall keepers who resell the commodity and food in their own neighborhood, and that they, in this way, support the existence of informal sector in the area.
Besides field research we also collected data through newspaper for lowbrows.
As a conclusion we came to know that in the process of urbanization in Jakarta, there are two main principles in organizing people that are contending each other : on the one hand formal and rigid neighborhood organization is functioning and on the other hand loose and informal network is formed around traditional market. Through the era of economic development this dualism in local community has been gradually formed. Less
