Abstract

Modernity that occurs naturally brings many developmental changes, one of which is in the tourism sector. This change is often known as the phenomenon of gentrification. The gentrification phenomenon in the Prawirotaman Tourism Village area of Yogyakarta City is now known as the Bule Village or International Village. Prawirotaman has undergone massive spatial and functional transformation, where residents' domestic spaces have shifted functions into commercial spaces of a global scale. This change then requires the local community to make massive adjustments to the dominance of tourism functions. This study aims to describe how local residents adapt their behavior and survival strategies to form a new habitus amidst the economic and cultural order of newcomers/tourists. Using a descriptive qualitative method with Pierre Bourdieu's sociological approach, data were collected through field observation, in-depth interviews with local residents and business actors, and documentation studies. The analysis focused on the shifts in cultural capital, social capital, and economic modes owned by residents. The research results show that gentrification in Prawirotaman not only causes gradual physical displacement, but also forces the occurrence of forced habituation through: (1) spatial gentrification, where residents adapt a hospitality lifestyle in response to the needs of the tourism industry; (2) glocalization, the emergence of hybrid behavior between traditional Javanese values and a cosmopolitan lifestyle; and (3) socio-cultural resilience in the form of efforts to maintain communal spaces (such as the tradition of ronda or residents greeting each other) amid the domination of private commercial spaces (cafes and hotels). Thus, it can be concluded that the adaptation strategies manifested in these three findings are a manifestation of the gentrification dynamics occurring in Kampung Wisata Prawirotaman.
