Abstract

Poverty forced most females to have double roles as housewives and workers. It happened to help the husbands look for a good living. This research aimed to describe the strategies for female industrial workers in Surakarta to resolve gender conflict in a household. This research used qualitative method to describe the data retrieved by interview technique using social role theory to find out the existence of double role conflict, kinds of conflicts, and strategies in resolution of the gender role conflict from the respondents in the regions of Surakarta, Boyolali, Sragen, Wonogiri, and Sukoharjo by referring to the patterned social behavior, social identity, and shared social expectations. This research uncovered the existence of various conflicts among female workers i.e. working hours, household chores, relationship communication between husband and wife (biological relationship), and childcare. Furthermore, this research also found the strategies used by housewives in facing conflicts, including division of role as head of the family, division of working hours, parenting arrangement, family biological time arrangement, and social community. Regarding the findings, this research provided female industrial workers with several alternative solutions to help them divide their time for professionally working in domestic and public affairs.

Abstract

The dual roles carried out by Indonesian women as both mothers and workers have increasingly garnered attention amidst dynamic social and economic changes. This article explores the concept of "Kepala Putik" as a perspective accompanied by the stigma faced by Indonesian women in fulfilling these dual roles. The research utilizes a qualitative method with a literature study approach. The primary data sources stem from a comprehensive review of relevant literature, including scholarly articles, books, and reports related to the dual roles of women in Indonesia. This study highlights the increasing participation of women in the workforce in Indonesia, focusing on a literature analysis to understand the social perspectives and challenges faced by women in balancing these dual roles. The uniqueness of this research lies in its emphasis on the specific concept of "Kepala Putik" and how this stigma uniquely affects Indonesian women. The findings of this study reveal the complexity of stereotypes and social norms related to women who choose to work while continuing to fulfil their roles as mothers.

Abstract

Online gambling in Indonesia increasingly exposes women and children to financial-based violence, making them vulnerable groups. Despite the rise in online gambling, current legal policies and rehabilitation programs have failed to fully address its harmful social effects. This study analyzes the criminogenic factors that contribute to victimization among women and children and evaluates the effectiveness of criminal law policies and rehabilitation programs in safeguarding them. Through a normative legal research method, utilizing legislative analysis, criminology, and case studies, the findings reveal that existing policies are inadequate and overlook the complexity of financial violence in this context. Rehabilitation programs also tend to be less effective, focusing primarily on legal and therapeutic approaches while neglecting broader social, economic, and cultural influences. This research proposes a more comprehensive and rehabilitative policy framework that not only seeks to punish offenders but also prioritizes prevention, reducing violence recurrence, and enhancing social reintegration for victims.

Abstract

The discussions around inheritance law highlight differences in quantity, potentially leading to discrimination claims without fully considering the legal rationale. The study explores how women can assert equality within diverse legal frameworks shaped by cultural contexts. This study using qualitative methods and case studies gather data to understand how women have developed unique legal cultures and sub-cultures. Findings suggest that women can advocate for gender justice within varying legal constitutions as long as they ensure protective measures are in place. Ultimately, for inheritance law to remain relevant and equitable, it must accommodate women’s perspectives and provide a foundation that respects their rights, ensuring that the law serves society fairly and inclusively without marginalizing any group.

Abstract

The presence of gender equality issues in Islamic family law has already become a new challenge faced by Muslims to manifest and uphold the higher purpose of sharī’a (maqāṣid al-sharī’a). Thus, maqāṣid al-sharī’a as a theoretical framework should be able to accept adjustment depending on the circumstance. This article aims to discuss the notion of gender equality in maqāṣid al-sharī’ah perspective, which is focused on two research questions, namely what is the perspective of maqāṣid al-sharī’a on gender equality discourse, especially in Islamic marriage law, and how can the reform of Islamic marriage law in the practice of divorce support the realization of a new paradigm of maqāṣid al-sharī’a to achieve justice. Using woman-initiated divorce (cerai gugat) in recent Indonesia as a case study and incorporating a normative legal approach along with the Islamic feminism theory proposed by Amina Wadud, the article concludes that the maqāṣid al-sharī’a applied in the Muslim legal tradition demonstrates the flexibility of Islamic law in adapting to various demands and circumstances. In the context of Islamic family law in Indonesia, it can be proven by the presence of woman-initiated divorce (cerai gugat) which has never been done before. It became a manifestation of the ability of maqāṣid al-sharī’a to reconcile contemporary issues such as the notion of gender equality.

Abstract

This research is grounded in environmental issues stemming from human exploitation of nature. Kampung Dukuh, located in West Java, is a traditional community that upholds local wisdom, particularly in managing forests and natural resources, fostering ecological balance. While previous studies have focused primarily on the roles of men, this research highlights the roles and positions of women in environmental preservation. It specifically explores the forms of local wisdom practiced by women in the use and conservation of natural resources. Employing ecofeminism and critical theory as analytical frameworks, the study examines the often-overlooked contributions of women to environmental stewardship. Findings show that nature is preserved through customary principles known as pikukuh pitutur, and pacaduan. Women actively transmit these values through oral storytelling, exemplary conduct, and written records. They also play vital roles in rituals—such as serving as lawang (ritual gatekeepers), guiding female pilgrims, performing the ngadamel tradition through nyepeng sapu (symbolic sweeping), and preparing traditional meals. The community’s reverence for women is symbolically reflected in their respect for nature; for example, the sugar palm tree is metaphorically likened to a wife, emphasizing the need for care and respect.

Abstract

Despite extensive scholarship on female mourning practices (iḥdād), male mourning within Islamic legal and gender studies is largely overlooked, creating a significant gap in understanding how widowers manage grief culturally and religiously. This study focuses on the neglected male mourning practices in Islamic contexts and how widowers navigate their grief. Through a qualitative method involving in-depth interviews with five widowers, alongside observations and document analysis (in the form of local prayer books, memorial schedules, and religious guidance texts), the data was thematically analyzed using the Braun and Clarke framework, combined with phenomenological insights to uncover emotional and ethical patterns. The findings indicate that widowers engage in ethical negotiations—such as postponing remarriage and avoiding social gatherings—that reflect an interplay between Islamic teachings and Javanese cultural norms. This research suggests that the Qira'ah Mubādalah perspective offers a valuable interpretive framework that situates these mourning practices within a context of reciprocal ethics rooted in spirituality, which has broader implications for gender ethics in contemporary Islamic discourse.

Abstract

The government-induced program Sustainable Food Garden (Pekarangan Pangan Lestari/P2L), holds significant potential for promoting inclusive development in the agricultural sector. As a community empowerment initiative, P2L enables both women and men to collaborate in managing household food gardens. Ideally, to ensure equal benefits, its implementation must consider a balanced division of roles within the household. Previous studies generally use the Harvard Analysis Framework mainly to map gender roles, access, and control in development programs. In contrast, this study goes further by examining how P2L creates space for women to build independence and gain the power to make decisions in their lives. A qualitative approach was applied, gathering insights from KWT members and the men involved in P2L activities. The data were analyzed using the Harvard Gender Analysis Framework, which assesses gender equality through three dimensions: activity profiles; access to and control over resources and benefits; and motivating factors behind women’s participation. Findings show that women’s productive roles at home provide them with time flexibility to participate in P2L. Men also contribute, particularly in tasks such as watering, fertilizing, and manual weeding. Access to and control over resources are fairly distributed between men and women. Women’s participation is supported by both internal and external motivations. Furthermore, P2L fosters empowerment by creating space for autonomy, independence, and self-reliance among KWT women.

Abstract

This study explores the dynamics of religious expression among young Muslim women in Bali within the context of socio-cultural diversity and the challenges of being a minority. Bali, as a global tourism destination, has a history of Muslim communities dating back to the 14th century coexisting with the Hindu majority. The research employs a descriptive-qualitative method, utilizing participant observation, in-depth interviews, focus group discussions (FGDs), and document analysis. Primary data were collected from young Muslim women, community leaders, and Islamic youth organizations in Bali. The results reveal that young Muslim women face significant challenges, including religious discrimination, social pressure in expressing their faith, limited access to religious education, difficulties in obtaining halal food, and religious conversion due to marital pressures. On the other hand, they utilize social media as a new space to express their religious identities. In interfaith interactions, young Muslim women demonstrate adaptability to local norms while facing tensions between religious identity and social demands. Theoretically, this research enriches the discourse on the relationship between identity, religious minorities, and religious expression in multicultural contexts such as Bali.

Abstract

Using qualitative methods grounded in social identity theory and transnational feminism, this research explores how Indonesian female health professionals act as cultural ambassadors through their professional roles and community engagements. This study explores the phenomenon of Indonesia’s diaspora branding in Perth, Australia through the experiences of female healthcare workers, with a specific focus on the communicative strategies that foster cultural identity and professional integration. The participants navigated multiple identities as healthcare professionals, women, migrants, and cultural ambassadors. They balanced their professional duties with maintaining their cultural heritage. Moreover, their deep understanding of Indonesian values contributed to their ability to provide culturally sensitive care. This competence not only benefited patients from similar backgrounds but also enriched the multicultural fabric of the healthcare setting. Though these women faced challenges, such as balancing professional responsibilities with family roles, they provided opportunities to showcase strengths such as empathy and caregiving, which are essentials in the healthcare sector. The study was limited to Indonesia female diaspora who live in Perth, Australia. The results provide insights into the intersections of communication, gender, and migration, contributing to an understanding of how identity is negotiated and represented in multicultural contexts. Implications for intercultural communication and diaspora identity promotion are discussed.
