Abstract

This research examines a movement of men’s participation towards the elimination of violence against women in Indonesia known as, Aliansi Laki-laki Baru (later refer as ALB). Using an ethnographic method, this research shows that ALB –as a social movement– could not be understood as a homogeneous and monolithic entity because of its diverse meanings of violence against women that are perceived by the participants. Furthermore, this research addresses the discourse productions as an act of resistance towards patriarchy and hegemonic masculinity. In this paper, I argue, patriarchy and hegemonic masculinity as the ideology of violence against women that are embodied in cultural violence. In doing so, this article shows the interwoven relationship between social movement’s meaning-making towards the focus of the movement and the resistance and its main cause: patriarchy and hegemonic masculinity in the context of ALB’s social movement practices.Key words: Aliansi Laki-laki Baru, cultural violence, hegemonic masculinity, patriarchy, resistance, social movement, violence against women

Abstract

This article examines the variety of meaning towards violence against women in Aliansi Laki-laki Baru’s social movement practice as a social movement that focuses on issues regarding male engagement in ending violence against women and achieving gender equality. Using ethnographic methods, I argue that social movement, particularly Aliansi Laki-laki Baru, could not be understood as monolithic and homogeneous entity because its participants could have various meanings on violence against women. While violence against women could be contextualized as Aliansi Laki-laki Baru’s main focus, participants in ALB could construct their own meaning on ‘violence against women’ as a sociocultural phenomenon. Furthermore, I argue that the variety of meaning towards issue on violence against women could be caused by ALB’s participants’ subjectivity and their own personal experiences.
