Abstract

This study aims to analyze the level of political literacy and the views of Generation Z in Medan City on the issues of identity politics and radicalism. The method used is a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through interviews, observations, and documentation. The results of the study show that the majority of Generation Z has limited political understanding and tends to follow the flow of public opinion, especially through social media. Although they generally reject the practice of identity politics and radicalism, this rejection is more emotional than based on deep conceptual understanding. The low level of political literacy and critical awareness is a challenge in forming a participatory and democratically resilient young generation. Therefore, increasing political literacy, anti-radicalism education, and understanding of diversity need to be instilled through formal education, digital literacy campaigns, and strengthening national values. This study recommends multi-sector collaboration to build a Generation Z that is politically aware, inclusive, and resilient to extreme ideologies

Abstract

This study analyzes the formation of political preferences among Muslim women in North Sumatra during the 2024 General Election, focusing on the dynamic intersection of religion, culture, and social networks. Drawing on data from 152 respondents collected through online surveys and in-depth interviews, the study finds that culture, particularly through family norms, domestic responsibilities, and spousal influence, emerges as the most dominant factor (93.4%) in shaping electoral decisions. Religion (77.6%) functions as a source of moral legitimation but is often actualized within cultural contexts and channeled through social networks. Social networks (42.1%) act as conduits for political narratives, primarily via social media and religious figures. This research challenges the simple dichotomy between agency and structure, demonstrating that women’s political autonomy does not always equate to individual independence but often manifests as a form of reflective obedience—wherein choices are forged through a negotiation between religious values, familial demands, and personal aspirations. These findings indicate that women are not merely passive recipients of influence but actively interpret and assign meaning to their political choices. To enhance women’s substantive participation, empowerment strategies must be holistic, addressing the transformation of family norms, the reinforcement of an inclusive religious identity, and the strengthening of social capacity. Consequently, the domestic sphere can be transformed from a restrictive space into a political power base for Muslim women.
