Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine how gender equality and inequality are represented in the film of Mulan (2020), a film which is based on the Chinese legend of Hua Mulan. The researchers aimed to explore the potential impact of the film's messages on viewers' cognitive and emotional levels, as it portrays the female protagonist as an active participant in the story and carries a strong feminist message. Unlike some other films, Mulan is not objectified or depicted as a source of eroticism, but rather as a proactive character fighting for fairness. To achieve the objective, the study employed a descriptive qualitative method and drew on Kate Millet's feminist theory. This theoretical framework was used to analyze and uncover the film's messages regarding gender equality. The researchers followed a four-step process involving data identification, classification, analysis, and drawing conclusions. Through their analysis, the study revealed a feminist movement that emerges from the main character and those around her, providing support for her pursuit of gender equality. The film also conveys valuable moral values related to gender equality and feminism, which can be applied in real-life contexts. The researchers anticipate that the findings of this study will contribute empirical evidence of gender equality and inequality practices depicted in the film.

Abstract

  Sexual violence in early childhood represents a multifaceted and urgent issue that demands systematic attention within educational and familial domains. This study aims to map the scholarly landscape concerning sex education, parental roles, and sexual violence, with a specific focus on how parental educational levels influence early childhood prevention efforts. Using a bibliometric analysis approach, data were extracted from 996 journal articles published between 2020 and 2022 through Publish or Perish software and subsequently analyzed using VOS Viewer. The analysis identified key thematic clusters, with parental education, school, and sex education emerging as the most frequently discussed topics. The results reveal a significant research gap in linking sex education with variables such as disability, child age, and socio-demographic factors. Furthermore, the findings underscore that sex education remains inadequately integrated into early childhood development, with many parents and educators perceiving the topic as taboo. This insufficient exposure contributes to children's vulnerability to sexual violence. The study highlights the necessity for more research exploring educators’ and parents’ roles in sex education, especially in relation to educational attainment. It calls for interdisciplinary collaboration to enhance sex education strategies and foster a culture of openness and protection for children.

Abstract

  Menarche marks a critical transition in a girl's life, signaling the onset of biological and reproductive maturity, and, from a fiqh perspective, the entry into the mukallaf stage of religious responsibility. However, this biological milestone is accompanied by significant physical, emotional, and social changes that necessitate appropriate educational interventions. This qualitative study aimed to explore behavioral changes observed in elementary school students following menarche and to identify educational programs needed to support their development. Data were collected through teacher interviews and focus group discussions across six elementary schools in Pekalongan City, Central Java, Indonesia, and analyzed using thematic content analysis. Findings revealed that post-menarche students exhibited increased attention-seeking behaviors towards the opposite sex, heightened self-focus on physical appearance, and active engagement on social media. However, schools lacked targeted educational programs addressing menstruation, reproductive health, and emotional development. This study emphasizes the urgent need for structured educational and counseling programs that integrate biological, psychological, and religious dimensions to support students during menarche, promoting healthy development and well-being. Collaborative efforts between schools, health departments, and educational authorities are recommended to ensure holistic student support.

Abstract

The formation of gender ideology can occur at various levels, and allows it to be socialized through social and institutional institutions at various levels. One of them is a university where students learn to research and study Islamic law. Higher education is one of the vital media to build a gender responsive culture. The focus in this study is to analyze gender ideology that influences students in researching and writing scientific papers, and how gender construction in Islamic legal thinking is in student work. Based on this study using a qualitative-phenomelologic approach and descriptive-analytic in nature, it was found out that, first, the gender ideology of students in conducting research and writing scientific papers is justice and gender awareness, secondly, the construction of Islamic legal thought in Postgraduates can be grouped according to two; 1) the orientation or direction of graduate student gender studies is more dominated by contextual or applied-empirical studies than textual or normative-legalistic studies. 2) the direction of analysis of gender studies is more defined as a study "about" women, not a study with a gender perspective or a study that uses gender as an analytical tool. Even though the two have fundamental differences, the difference is in the way of viewing used, not just gender, but more about the roles and functions between men and women.

However, in Islam survivors who experience dating violence considered as a person who facing a test. Islam offer the concept called “Hijrah” in order to foster a positive thought for a survivors. Hijrah means shifting from something bad to a kindness, from naughtiness to truth, also from everything negative to more positive. In Indonesia with a Muslim majority population, dating violence is the second highest case of violence against women.

Abstract

Violence against women occurs in almost all countries and has become a global issue that is often reviewed and discussed at various seminars. The United Nations defines violence against women as "Any act of gender-based violence that results in or is likely to cause physical, sexual, or mental damage or suffering to women, including the threat of such actions, the coercion or deprivation of liberty arbitrarily, whether occurring in the public sphere and private life. The purpose of this analysis is to determine the effect of sociodemographic characteristics and women's involvement in decision-making in the household on permissive attitudes towards domestic violence in women. This analysis uses the 2017 Indonesian Demographic and Health Survey (IDHS) data source with the unit of analysis being married women aged 15-49 as many as 35,681 respondents. Data analysis was performed descriptively and inferentially. The logistic regression multivariate test was used to analyze the influence of sociodemographic characteristics and women's involvement in decision making on the permissive attitude of domestic violence to women. The results of the analysis found that several variables influence permissive attitudes on domestic violence in women, namely: the role of women in decision making, age, number of children still alive, education level, access to the internet, wealth quintile, and location of residence. While work status does not significantly influence permissiveness towards domestic violence. Proactive socialization, comprehensive policy, and coordination across related sectors on an ongoing basis are expected to reduce domestic violence in the community.

Abstract

The strength of film as a medium that represents and constructs reality with the storyline which is symbolically packaged, through substance and full of socio-cultural values. This study is to describe the deconstruction of femininity and women's resistance meaning in the “Mother” movie. This research is a descriptive qualitative text research using main analysis of critical discourse by Sara Mills. The subject is the “Mother” movie, a thriller drama directed by Bong Joon-Ho. Collecting data at the text level, especially through documentation and literature studies, and furthermore, data is validated through FGD with experts who have experience and knowledge according to the object of research. The results explain the deconstruction of feminine values and women's resistance meaning in the “Mother” movie positioning women as objects. At this level, there is an objectification of women through the main character played by Hye ja, although another tendency appears which also positions women as subjects in the storyline. The emergence of physical and emotional aspects of femininity strengthens the objectification of women in the film. However, there is a dissection on femininity and resistance value in the film due to the emotional dynamics of the main character’s complex character. Finally, the existence of media as an industry and the power of messages makes the practice of media commodification depends on the owners, so it’s possible that the image of the female character in the film is used to represent a form of media power over the commodification of the message conveyed.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to describe problems related to livelihood according to the perspective of Contemporary Mufassir. Scholars agree that a living is borne by the husband in meeting household needs, but in the contemporary era it is often found that women work outside the home as the main support for breadwinners in meeting household needs. Some say that it is natural for women to stay at home, but we often encounter the phenomenon of women as breadwinners outside the home. The author wants to examine the issue of subsistence from the perspective of Contemporary Mufassir, Sheikh Mutawalli Sya'rowi, M. Quraish Shihab and Buya Hamka. The writing method uses descriptive qualitative research with the type of Library Research. The primary source comes from the book of Tafsir As-Sya'rawi, Tafsir Al-Mishbah, Tafsir Al-Azhar. Data collection techniques from documentation with qualitative content analysis as the analysis technique. The results of the research in general show that the three mufassirs allow women to work for a living. As-Sya'rawi and Quraish Shihab both clearly stated the permissibility of working for women. As for Buya Hamka, he allowed it, but he seemed to emphasize more on women to stay at home.
