Popis: With the growth and development of ICT, the concept of sustainability is facing opportunities to be enriched and developed. Focusing on the communication network improvement towards the Campbell's concept of ‘just city’ (1996), this study explores inclusiveness of community network induced by telecommunication technology. Taking a case at local level in Bandung City, Indonesia, this study investigates current communication network in the local level, as the ICT currently contributes greatly in communication network. The area of this study is narrowed into two neighborhoods—Cihapit and Cipaganti Neighborhoods—so the communication can be analyzed in detail. The findings suggest that some aspects of inclusive communication network are not met in Cihapit Neighborhood. On the other hand, the communication network in Cipaganti Neighborhood met several aspects of inclusive communication network, therefore Cipaganti Neighborhood promotes itself to create a just city.
