What am I missing? The shack-dwellers have no land or strata title or security, often reduced access to utilities and services (or none at all), and thereby live in a state of relative fear and insecurity. Often owing to this situation they also periodically lose what little they have to thug-teams called in to clear illegal dwellings, and even if they can hold on tend to lack access to education for their children who grow up with stigma and reduced opportunities which results in a cycle of poverty. Simplistically, you can look at slum-dwellers as landless peasants.
