Abstract

This article is part of dissertation research on childcare of Indonesian Women Migrant Workers (TKIP) in pesantren, using a qualitative approach and analysis unit in child and their environment. This study uses the ecological system theory of Bronfenbrenner and theconcept of Global Care Chain with the perspective of child protection. The results showed that the children of TKIP who abandoned by their mothers abroad became losing care, disrupted their social welfare psychically and socially; there is interdependence between the child’s of TKIP and his/her family with TKIP abroad; pesantren is an option for TKIP family because there is no professional childcare for the children of TKIP when their mother abandons her/him. Institutionally pesantren has potential to break the Global Care Chain injustice on the care of TKIP children with the support of religious values and traditions of pesantren. However, policy support is needed to ensure the care and social welfare of TKIP’s children that based on community and which integrated comprehensively inblueprint of Indonesian migrant worker policy.

Abstract

What makes child marriage an option for girls and their relatives in this present time? How and why does it happen in an average village in Sukabumi, West Java? Kabupaten Sukabumi is one of the districts in West Java that has a high number of child marriages, especially in the villages in the periphery. The selected research village is not a child marriage hot-spot compared to provincial standards. With an incidence2 of 32 % for marriage under 18 of ever married women between 20-24 it is slightly higher than the provincial average of 30.7%3 . Compared to the Indonesian average of 17% for marriage under 18 it is much higher4 . The choice to do research in one village enables us to look in detail at different aspects of child marriage and intersectionality in the same setting. The research is based on 28 qualitative in-depth case-studies, combined with a census of all households with 20-24-year-old male and female members and supporting interviews and observations. Fieldwork is about to be finalised, other parts of the research are still ongoing. Sketches of six cases – five girls and one boy – show the diversity and complexity of child marriage. The article discusses the potential agency of young people vis-a-vis their parents/elders, from self-realised marriage to forced marriage. It confirms the role of common causes like the lack of control of girls’s sexuality and the fear of zina, and poor access to education and health when it comes to pregnancies, but questions the role of poverty as a direct reason of child marriage. Every case seems to be a particular combination of causes based on morality and religion, the composition of households, parental care and upbringing, the access girls have to formal and religious education, including sexual education, and to the local labour market. Gender and age are crosscutting hierarchies with girls at the most powerless side of the equation.

Abstract

This paper analysis whether the Criminal Code Draft is oriented towards the interests and protection of the rights of victims especially women victims of gender-based violence. This paper uses juridical or normative research methods, through analysis on articles in the Criminal Code Draft. This study uses analytical framework of feminist legal theory which put law as a political product and often neglects the interests of women victims of violence that vary. This paper finds that the main orientation of the Criminal Code Draft is the interests of the perpetrator and the community, but not explicitly oriented to the victim's interests. It is assumed that with reference to the public interest then it has been victim-oriented. The victim is still seen as the party who helps to reveal the case alone, not the party who has suffered the loss so they need protection and reparation. The responsibility of the perpetrator is addressed to meet the interests of a sense of community justice, not a victim. In addition, some of the regulatory articles on criminal offenses still contain problems because the Criminal Code Bill prefer to compiles several laws outside the Criminal Code but does not revise articles which based on the experiences of the victims is difficult to implement, such as the arrangement of PKDRT (domestic violence). Furthermore, there are still articles that victimize victims by criminalizing those who are actually victims of gender-based violence.

Abstract

Even after the rise of Indonesian feminist film directors by the likes of Nia Dinata, Mira Lesmana, Mouly Surya, Nan T Achnas and Lola Amaria, the Indonesian moviegoers still flocked into badly written teenage romance dramas. This paper interrogates the way romance and femininities have been shaped within the cinematic representation in London Love Story 2, Promise and Dear Nathan. It is concluded that the Indonesian romance teenage dramas are entrenched with masculine power and dominance spectacles in which the feminine heroines have been treated as passive objects of desire whose agency and subjectivities are being stripped away. Using feminist literature on post-feminist romance cinema, the heroines in these films have mostly been constructed as independent, smart and seemingly agentive at first, but nevertheless pursued romantic, traditional, heterosexual relationships saturated with masculinecontrol and dominance. This paper shows that post-feminist popular culture has transpired globally and morphed into transnational post-feminism that influenced the production and consumption of such text in Indonesia.

Abstract

The Draft of the Indonesian Criminal Code has provoked a debate, especially with regard to the articles under the scope of decency. The formulation of Article 488 has the potential to create new problems for women. Especially women who have obstacles in accessing legal identity. This Article 488 is a reflection of the failure of jurists to formulate laws, in understanding women's experience in relation to their access to the right to obtain legal identity, especially in the context of relationship. The criminal law is not the answer to all problems. This paper is compiled using data obtained from field study related to the handling of cases of violence against women under customary law, carried out by the authors and the team from Legal and Community Studies Fields in 2015, 2016 and 2017 in Eastern Indonesia; as well as data on legal and non-legal text analysis. The overall method and analysis of research findings using feminist legal studies and feminist legal theories.

Abstract

This paper aims to explain the dimensions of inequality power relations and revictimization that occurred in a rape case by seduction in dating violence context. Using the case study of court decisions and radical feminist theory as a tool of analysis, the author argue that the narrative ‘in the name of love’ used by perpetrators of sexual violence in personal relations is actually another manifestation of the inequality of power relations and become site of female body subjugation. Therefore, forms of exploitation that use a ‘proof of love’ narrative in cases of forced sexual intercourse should be identified as part of sexual violence.

Abstract

On 14 February 2018 the Draft of the Criminal Code (RKUHP) was adjourned until an undetermined time, several articles deemed to be problematic. One of them is a criminal act of fornication. A new article will convict a denial-men who promises woman he has intercoursed with. Eventhough that article is meant to protect women, on the other hand, it can also be a factor to victimize women as perpetrator. This paper examines the position of women among the articles which will protect women's rights as well as those which criminalize them. This paper is a normative juridical study by using literature review and aims to find the problem and also intend solving it. The result, victimized-women protection Article in RKUHP should carefully be formulated in order not to allow victim women to be criminalized.
Love, Existential Project, and Truth Seeking Takwin, Bagus

Abstract

This paper explains what love is by referring to the philosophical thoughts of some philosophers and the results of empirical research that have been done on the phenomena of love. Here also discussed the tendency to extend love on one side, narrowing and even negating love on the other. This paper takes the position that love as an existential project. Philosophically, love is seen as a continuing search for truth. As the fruit of the will and the sincerity of human endeavor, love has real and concrete results. In its concrete form, love is the embodiment of a common promise into reality; a step-by-step process presents a concrete manifestation of the statements contained in the promise. This philosophical thought is corroborated by empirical studies of love that love differs from sexual passion or lust. Love can last long, eternal and stay intense through the couple’s efforts to care for each other, nurture and develop each other.
