Abstract

The main goal of this article is to explicate the experience of Social Suffering in Urban Slums through a dialectic structure of social, historical, and spatial aspects of the construct of people living in Urban Slums. The study of slums requires a theoretical framework which emphasizes on the social aspects of life in such spaces. A slum is a highly populated urban residential area consisting mostly of closely packed, decrepit housing units in a situation of deteriorated or incomplete infrastructure, inhabited primarily by impoverished people. This research studies a slum called Naysar near Sanandaj city. Through Critical Ethnography, and by relying on concepts of “ Social Suffering” and “ The Space of Representation” , we study the lived experience of suffering of inhabitants. The findings show that there is a great degree of “ Feeling Distaste for the Neighborhood” , “ Distrust” , “ Abandonment” and “ Inability to Change the Situation” among inhabitants. These all are terms related to Social Suffering. Some other terms related with the hierarchy of domination are “ Property Acquisition” , “ The Functions of Urban Organization” and “ the Disability of Inhabitants” . Finally, according to critical urban theory, “ The Right to City” is the main concept which clarifies the situation of subaltern excluded people in slums. In slums like Naysar, a social movement is needed to resist the power of capital and interventions of state organizations in order to re-appropriate the urban spaces to subalterns.
