Indonesia's Free Market 'Superblocks'.

The article focuses on the prevalence of superblocks, a traditional urban planning concept, in developing world megacities like Jakarta, Indonesia. It explores how superblocks, characterized by pedestrian-friendly spaces and narrow alleys, have organically evolved in areas with economic constraints, serving as a market-driven development pattern. The author contrasts the grassroots development of superblocks in the Global South with Western planners' attempts to reintroduce them.
