Abstract

This research aims to analyze the subjective experiences of female university students who have been victims of abusive relationships in the context of dating in Malang City. The research uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a phenomenological method to explore the meaning and essence of the victims' experiences in-depth. The main theory used is Lenore Walker's Cycle of Violence Theory, which outlines the recurring pattern of violence in three phases: tension building, acute battering incident, and honeymoon phase. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation of three female student informants (RAD, SA, and IAH) selected using purposive sampling technique. Data analysis follows the Miles and Huberman model (data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing) with source triangulation to ensure data validity. The results show that all three victims experienced various complex and overlapping forms of violence, including physical violence (hitting, slapping, kicking), verbal and psychological violence (cursing, humiliation, emotional control), sexual violence (forced intercourse), digital violence (social media surveillance, privacy violations), and financial violence (economic exploitation, forced taking of money). The relationship dynamics followed Walker's cycle of violence, where accumulated tension exploded into explicit violence, followed by a pseudo-reconciliation phase by the perpetrator. This research concludes that abusive relationships among female university students are a multidimensional phenomenon that traps victims in a manipulative cycle. Efforts to increase awareness, education about healthy relationships, and systematic support from campuses and the environment are needed to prevent and address dating violence.

Abstract

This study examines the shifting role and visibility of women within the traditional performance art of Bantengan in Batu City, East Java. Historically dominated by male performers and imbued with spiritual-masculine symbolism, Bantengan has witnessed a notable increase in female participation in recent years. Employing a qualitative ethnographic approach, this research investigates how women’s involvement is perceived, negotiated, and integrated into this traditionally gendered cultural space. Data were collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews, and analysis of digital media content. The study is framed by Peter L. Berger’s theory of social construction to analyze the processes of externalization, objectivation, and internalization of women’s roles within the Bantengan community. Findings reveal that women’s participation not only challenges entrenched gender norms but also revitalizes the art form by attracting younger participants and fostering innovation. Social media platforms, particularly TikTok and Instagram, emerge as significant arenas for the normalization and legitimization of women’s presence in Bantengan, accelerating the community’s acceptance. This research contributes to the discourse on gender, cultural preservation, and digital mediation in traditional arts. It demonstrates that cultural sustainability in the contemporary era can be enhanced through inclusive practices and adaptive communication strategies, positioning women not merely as participants but as active agents in the ongoing transformation of intangible cultural heritage.
