Thus, it is necessary to study the effects of mental health in an effort to improve and improve the quality of life of women, both internally and externally. This article is written using a literature study method that aims to optimize the quality of life of women in achieving a healthy, prosperous, positive spirit, and resilience in facing various problems.

Abstract

Kekerasan Berbasis Gender Online (KBGO) masih menjadi sorotan dalam penelitian gender, feminisme dan media massa di Indonesia. Alasannya, pemberitaan mengenai isu ini kurang mendapatkan perhatian lebih di media. Selain itu, korban kasus kekerasan berbasis gender termasuk KBGO, seringkali dipojokkan dalam pemberitaan media oleh masyarakat akibat konstruk yang dibangun. Konstruksi yang dibangun oleh media massa itu tentu mempunyai dampak yang serius dalam pendidikan melawan kekerasan seksual di masyarakat. Salaj satu dampaknya yaitu banyaknya stigma negatif terhadap korban kekerasan seksual. Untuk itu, penelitian ini ingin melihat pembingkaian yang dilakukan oleh Kompas.com dan Konde.co, yang merupakan media dengan berbeda segmen melakukan pembingkaian mengenai isu KBGO ini. Pemilihan kedua media ini dipilih karena merupakan representasi media umum dan media khusus yang tidak bias gender. Teori yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini yaitu Konstruksi Sosial dan Framing. Metodologi yang dipakai yaitu metode kualitatif dengan menggunakan perangkat framing Robert Entman. Hasilnya memperlihatkan bahwa Kompas.com terstruktur dalam membangun narasinya pada isu mengenai kekerasan terhadap perempuan, termasuk KBGO. Sedangkan Konde.co menjadi media yang lebih spesifik dalam membangun narasinya dengan metode story-telling, dan lebih berani dalam membingkai isu mengenai kekerasan seksual terutama KBGO.

Abstract

Social discrimination is a never-ending issue that happens not only in reality but also in fiction novels. It is described as perpetual inequality of people based on their disability, illness, sexual orientation, religion, or any other. Hence, literature as a cultural product has a potential to deliver social discrimination discourse. This research aims to discuss how the social discrimination depicted in Kiera Cass’ The Selection. The Selection is a story about an event to find a prince’s bride in Illéa. The caste system and absolute monarchy exist in Illéa’s kingdom. Depending on their jobs, people are divided into eight castes. In this research, the representation theory by Stuart Hall is applied. The study’s analysis is qualitative with the novel as primary data and other supporting sources as secondary data. The collected data are used to indicate how social discrimination between castes constructed in the novel, how it is related to the condition in the United States of America in 1900s, and where the author took a side with. The result of the research shows that social discrimination occurs as the absolute position of the caste and it is difficult to change this situation. The novel’s social discrimination is also related to the real condition of the United States of America in the early 1900s, which includes job, partner, and lifestyle aspects. The author appeared to position herself more on the side of the lower caste at first, but no solution is offered as a result of the lower caste’s work.

Abstract

Feminism is widely developed in ideology and practice. A movement that elicits a great deal of individual and collective sympathy in order to fight for women’s rights, despite it continues to intersect with the subjectivity of various experiences of women’s oppression. The dynamic movement of this group, as well as the rights advocated for, contribute to the perception that feminism has gone too far. Literature studies was conducted to comprehend a tie-in the fragmentation of feminist groups to the emergence of this perception, which in turn influences rousing an anti-feminism perspective. Feminism supposed to be at the middle ground which prioritizes gender equality and justice, reduce gender bias, and base its ideology and activities on gender neutrality to address women's issues more objectively.

Abstract

Islam and Feminism, both are perceived as incompatible. However, this view is sadly only generated by the Western when they see Islam in the Middle Eastern. It even misleads when the Western has been only looking for particular countries which practice conservative and textual Islam. In reality, Islam put women in a respectful position, and though Islam has different points of view from some points in feminism, it does not mean they are against each other. Here in this paper, I tried to analyse a comparative study between how our Indonesian culture and how Islamic teachings perceive the role of women in their domestic reality and how women can participate in every day life. Interestingly, the role of women fits into the role of women from the perspective of Ethics of Care. In Ethics of care, it is believed that women’s power on taking care of other people is the key to their strength and somehow when we learn Islam deeper, we will find it is connected and this paper proves it.  Here we make structure our paper starting with an introduction, later we talk about classical Fiqih. The reason why we choose classical Fiqih is that we want to understand the root of Islamic teachings on the blatant reality so we can understand how Islam sees a woman in reality. Later, we will discuss a comparison between our culture in general and Islamic Teaching so we will have insight into which one is part of our culture and which one is purely Islamic teachings. From our findings, we found that our culture and Islamic teaching have relatively similar points of view on women's role in domestic reality. However, the conservative approach is coming from misunderstanding and, people's attitudes to mixing Islamic teachings with their Khawarij culture which is not a real Islam yet because people from outside of the Islamic world do not understand, they tend to think it is a real Islam which is giving Islam a bad reputation.
