Abstract

The City of Sawahlunto was previously recognized by its coal mining activities. Since the decline of mining production in Sawahlunto, the city became a new administrative area which is divided into old and new town areas. This paper discusses the changing identity of Sawahlunto. Urban involution characterizes the town condition; the population number increases but without the expansion of urban character. Some parts of the town are small settlements with strong local identity. Thus, this condition affects "the breakdown" or "the duality" of Sawahlunto identity represented by old town and Talawi city.
