Abstract

Development in the economic sector, as well as science and technology in Surabaya, resulted in very rapid progress. However, development also has an adverse impact on the community, including the emergence of social inequality, both at the national and regional levels. This social gap often raises social problems, including street children and violence. This study aims to determine the forms of violence experienced by street children who do not occupy a shelter in the city of Surabaya and the survival strategy of street children who do not occupy a shelter against violence in the city of Surabaya. This study uses a qualitative approach and takes the location of the gathering of street girls along the railroad tracks in the Ketintang area, Surabaya. According to E. Lawson, there are four forms of violence (abuse) against children and it occurs in the Ketintang railroad area, namely emotional abuse (emotional abuse), verbal abuse (verbal abuse), physical abuse (physical abuse), and violence (sexual abuse).
