Abstract

Indonesian youth experience age discrimination (ageism) according to the Domination Matrix in the form of legal structural dominance and cultural hegemony. Law Number 40 of 2009 on Youth defines youth as citizens aged 16–30 years, but a number of political positions in Law Number 7 of 2017 on Elections and Law Number 10 of 2016 on Local Elections have conditions that prohibit youth ages. All youths are prohibited from becoming president/deputy which is implied by the existence of a minimum age requirement of 40 years, governor/deputy (30), and members of the General Election Commission/Election Supervisory Body at central (40), provincial (35) and district/city levels (30). Culturally, the ageism which judges youth to be incapable of leading is natural with the fact that youth have never nominated a youth minister and chairman of National Committee of Indonesian Youth (KNPI). It is important for young people to study the politics of hope for feminism, which in history succeeded in removing the ban on women’s suffrage and succeeded in obtaining political affirmation of at least 30 percent. As a significant number of citizens, the intersectionality of youth in feminism can be a synergy to achieve a more representative parliament, by recognizing one another’s identities within the framework of political expectations.

Abstract

Persons with disabilities experience vulnerability in fulfilling their right to protection in a pandemic situation This study aims to examine the participation process of groups of persons with disabilities, namely the Indonesian Association of Women with Disabilities (Himpunan Wanita Disabilitas Indonesia – HWDI) through the struggle for disability protection during the Covid-19 period in DKI Jakarta. This study uses the perspective of inclusive citizenship to see efforts to involve active participation of citizens in encouraging the fulfillment of rights by the government. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method with narrative analysis techniques. The results of the study show that although HWDI has been able to influence the DKI Jakarta provincial government in several policies, there are rights that still need to be fulfilled in the dimension of inclusive citizenship. These rights include social, civil, and political rights which have not been fulfilled by the government, which has implications for persons with disabilities not being further involved in handling the Covid-19 pandemic.

Abstract

Hukum dan kesepakatan internasional menjamin hak perempuan dan kelompok muda untuk berpartisipasi dalam pembuatan keputusan yang berdampak pada hidup mereka. Namun realitanya tidak demikian, secara umum, akses untuk terlibat dalam pembuatan keputusan kerap mengeksklusi perempuan dan kelompok muda. Edisi ini bermaksud membangun diskursus tentang pentingnya partisipasi perempuan dan kelompok muda dalam politik. Secara khusus, edisi ini membahas terkait: pentingnya representasi substantif perempuan dalam politik Indonesia; partisipasi politik perempuan dan kelompok muda sebagai warga negara yang utuh; gerakan sosial dan aktivisme: partisipasi bermakna perempuan dan anak muda dalam politik informal; dan partisipasi politik yang merangkul perbedaan dan menjamin hak kelompok rentan. Dengan menjamin partisipasi penuh perempuan dan kelompok muda dalam politik, artinya kita bergerak menumbuhkan masyarakat yang lebih adil dan berkelanjutan. Partisipasi politik yang inklusif akan menghasilkan tata kelola yang lebih baik, peningkatan stabilitas ekonomi, dan juga kohesi sosial yang lebih baik. Jurnal Perempuan melalui edisi ini hendak menyuarakan bahwa mengejar kesetaraan gender dalam politik bukan hanya kewajiban etis — melainkan prasyarat mendasar untuk menghasilkan masyarakat yang sejahtera, setara, adil, dan inklusif bagi kita semua

Abstract

The construction of unpaid care work as the responsibility of women has contributed to the emergence of the postponing marriage phenomenon (waithood) among youth, especially women. On the other hand, care work is an integral part of the reproductive workforce, related to productive work. Furthermore, care work also contributes to reproducing the workforce in serving the interests of capital accumulation. The mechanization of women’s roles in creating a workforce surplus makes women work excessively and hinders economic access. It argues that the financial pressures and the burden of work indirectly lead to the delayed marriage phenomenon. This financial pressure and the burden of care work indirectly contribute to the postponement of marriage. This study adopts a perspective of Social Reproduction Theory by utilizing qualitative research methods and a literature study approach. This study analyzes the relationship between capitalism, care work, and the recent phenomenon of waithood. The results indicate that women have been supporting the workforce through their care work, and this occurs systemically as a consequence of the capitalist system, which has led to the postponement of women’s marriages.

Abstract

This article aims to delineate the systemic challenges and discrimination faced by women workers in the footwear and home-based industries, both in terms of working conditions and caregiving responsibilities. The findings of this study were obtained through in-depth interviews with women workers in three footwear factories in Banten Province and home-based workers in North Jakarta. The experiences of these women workers were analyzed within two interrelated domains: the realm of production and social reproduction. The research reveals that women workers, both in factories and home-based settings, face a dual burden, striving to meet high production targets while also bearing the responsibilities of caregiving. Specifically, women home-based workers are more vulnerable to health risks compared to factory workers due to the lack of separation between their workplace and living spaces. The study also uncovers that women workers in both factory and home-based settings encounter economic violence, as their caregiving work goes unpaid and lacks support from the government and the industry.

Abstract

Domestic workers (DWs) are in a very vulnerable position. However, the problems faced by domestic workers have not yet become a mainstream discourse, let alone transformed into public policies that provide legal protection for them. In the absence of a legal framework that can be used to claim their rights, domestic workers are one of the most vulnerable groups of workers to discrimination, violence, and exploitation. In Indonesia, advocacy for a law to protect domestic workers has been ongoing for almost two decades. However, to date, the law has not been materialised, even though the Indonesian government, when hosting the G20, advocated for the recognition of the care economy. This article aims to discuss the PPRT Bill using the 5 R’s framework (recognition, reduction, redistribution, reward, and representation) developed by the ILO. This article assesses that the PPRT Bill is generally in line with the 5R’s framework, but it still needs strengthening in several aspects, especially issues of pay, benefits, and the right to unionise.

Abstract

Indonesia has a statutory paid maternity leave, however it remains restricted to the employer’s liability and has not yet been integrated into the social security system within the labour sector. Prior research suggests that the availability of maternity leave remains restricted, which raises the likelihood of experiencing reduced income during leave and missing out on potential employment chances upon return. The main objective of paid maternity leave is not just to safeguard the women’s needs, but also to improve the welfare of children and families, resulting in favorable economic benefit. This article advocates for the need of transitioning the prevailing perspective on maternity leave, wherein it is seen as the responsibility of the employer, to a social insurance programme that falls within the scope of employment social insurance. Implementing such a programme would guarantee that women have the ability to take time off and get financial support throughout their leave, in order to preserve their well-being, as well as that of their children and families. Additionally, it would provide reassurance for a smooth transition back to work following the completion of maternity leave.

Abstract

The expansion of oil palm plantation has drawn scholarship attention. On one hand, studies have examined how oil palm plantation development serves an important instrument for employment creation, poverty alleviation and rural development. On the other, there is plenty of research that shows adverse impacts of such expansion on socio-ecological conditions. This includes the recruitment of women plantation workers into maintenance work with flexible labour relations. Meanwhile, literature on oil palm plantations in Indonesia has not paid significant attention on care work. Employing feminist political economy perspective, this article attempts to understand care work in monoculture oil palm plantations, particularly in relations to maintenance work on plantation. Through the concept of social reproduction, care work is understood in a broader terms as a way to draw the entanglement between production and reproduction in monoculture oil palm plantations. This article argues that women workers participation into maintenance work on plantations show the articulation of social relations based on patriarchal system with palm oil competition in the global market. From the perspective of the women workers, participation in the maintenance work is viewed as a livelihood strategy. The strategy that involves works with risk of regular exposure to toxic chemicals is understood as toxic care.

Abstract

Paid and unpaid care work has regained prominence in national and international forums as a pivotal issue affecting the low participation of women in development. Despite being predominantly carried out by women, care work remains inadequately recognized and undervalued, especially at the policy level. This paper delves into the reasons behind the lack of attention to care work issues at the national level. It explores the extent of gender ideology implications on state policies related to care work. The research employs desk review and self-reflection based on the author’s experience facilitating discussions on care work issues. The analysis reveals a policy gap in Indonesia concerning care work, influenced by the ambiguity of the state’s gender ideology. Consequently, gender transformation has not been a central focus in care policies, and the legitimacy of women’s roles in unpaid work tends to be reinforced.

Abstract

Gender inequality in the workplace is rooted in patriarchal norms within families, institutions, and states. Gender roles exclude women from job opportunities, promotions, equal income, and more. Care work, associated with women, often forces them to choose between a career and family caregiving. However, a feminist perspective advocates for the redistribution of care work involving men. This research emphasizes the importance of changing men’s understanding and practices in care work to achieve gender equality in the workforce. Through in-depth interviews, the study critiques and synthesizes challenges in care work redistribution, shares successful practices, and recommends practical and conceptual suggestions to ensure men’s involvement in caregiving within the workplace context.
