Abstract

Women have become a significant focus in the implementation of Islamic Sharia in Aceh in recent years. This paper examines the development of research on women in relation to Islamic Sharia in Aceh and maps the bibliometric relationships among articles published in Google Scholar-indexed journals from 2007 to 2023. Utilizing a quantitative method with a bibliometric approach, data was collected through a literature search using Harzing's Publish or Perish application. The analysis was conducted using the Vosviewer application, which visualizes network, overlay, and publication density aspects. The findings indicate a decline in studies on women and Islamic law by the end of 2023, with the peak publication year being 2022, which saw five articles, while only one article was published in 2023. From 2007 to 2023, a total of 22 research articles were identified, accumulating 232 citations. The most cited author during this period is Muhammad Ansor, with three articles and 93 citations. The Al-Jami'ah Journal and Analisa Journal were the leading publishers on this topic. The bibliometric relationship map revealed 163 items grouped into ten clusters, covering topics such as sharia regulations on Muslim dress, gambling, women's participation, and human rights up to 2012. In contrast, discussions from 2012 to 2022 shifted towards domestic violence, sexual violence, and protection. While subjects like sharia regulation and Muslim dress have been extensively researched, areas such as protection, human rights, and women's involvement remain underexplored.

Abstract

The phenomenon of pink tax is a gender inequality issue that discriminates women in the purchase of goods or services by producers. The objective of this research is to identify the pink tax phenomenon in Indonesia, encompassing its existence, influencing factors, and the urgency of the related issue. Additionally, this study aims to analyse the role of the government through policies regarding the emergence of the pink tax phenomenon. Policies closely associated with the pink tax include Law Number 8 of 1999 on Consumer Protection, Law Number 5 of 1999 on the Prohibition of Monopoly Practices and Unfair Business Competition, and Law Number 7 of 2014 on Trade. The research methodology employed in this study is qualitative, involving literature review, documentary analysis, and interviews. The findings of this research indicate that the pink tax exists in Indonesia, yet awareness of this issue is not evenly distributed across all layers of society. While some institutions have acknowledged the existence of this problem, there have been no concrete steps taken to reduce or address this gender-based price discrimination. Furthermore, current policies are deemed inadequate in addressing gender-based price discrimination practices and protect women’s consumer. This is attributed to the fact that gender equality elements are not fully encompassed in the existing policies.

Abstract

Management innovations in Early childhood education programs or the so called PAUD (Pendidikan Anak Usia Dini) management based on children's needs in the digital era have become very relevant for improving the quality of early childhood education. Technological developments provide opportunities for educational institutions to adapt learning methods that are more interactive and appropriate to children's developmental needs. This research explored the implementation of technology-based management innovations at PAUD Plamboyan 3, West Karawang, and evaluated their impact on children's learning and parental involvement. The study aims to determine the implementation of technology-based management innovations and to identify their effects on the learning process, parental involvement, and curriculum management. This research used a qualitative approach with a case study method. This qualitative research employs a case study method, with data collected through observations. The sample in this interview consisted of one school principal, five teachers, ten parents, and documents related to technology integration in learning. The research results show that using technology, such as learning applications and e-learning platforms, increases children's learning motivation and strengthens parental involvement in children's education. Curriculum management tailored to children's needs also supports children's cognitive, social, and motoric development. However, some parents need attention to challenges related to limited access to technology at home. This research is essential for the development of PAUD in the digital era by emphasizing the importance of teacher training, increasing access to technology, and the active role of parents in supporting children's learning process.

Abstract

This research analyzes the strategic agency of Mpu Uteun, a women-led conservation group in Aceh, Indonesia, that emerged in response to severe environmental degradation within a patriarchal social context. Grounded in the theoretical framework of women's agency and empowerment, this research examines the negotiation mechanisms that these female forest guardians employ across multiple spheres—domestic, communal, economic, and state—to legitimize their roles in environmental governance as they navigate socio-cultural barriers. Conducted within a qualitative design, this research employed secondary data examined through thematic narrative analysis. The findings revealed that the agency of Mpu Uteun is rooted in a collective experience of ecological disaster, which motivates proactive conservation measures such as forest patrols, reforestation, and disaster mitigation. The group's success hinges on sophisticated negotiation strategies: they renegotiated domestic roles to accommodate public activism, navigate communal resistance through inclusive tactics and non-confrontational approaches toward illegal loggers, and, crucially, secure formal legitimacy from the state by obtaining a customary forest management permit. This research concludes that Mpu Uteun exemplifies an effective model of community-based conservation while fundamentally transforming the gendered landscape of natural resource governance. Thus, this research advances understanding of women’s environmental agency, demonstrating how strategic negotiation dismantles patriarchal barriers and informs inclusive conservation policy.

Abstract

Violence against women in the digital space was common, including digital harassment, defamation on social media, and other forms. Santriwati, as part of the women's community in pesantren, had a crucial role in addressing this issue. This study aims to analyze the role of female students in overcoming digital-based violence against women using the KUPI (Kongres Ulama Perempuan Indonesia) trilogy approach at the Al-Hikam Pesantren. This study used a qualitative approach with a case study research type. Data collection used participatory observation, interviews, and documentation. For the informant, the female guardians, the female student organization administrators, and several female students, because they were most knowledgeable about the research focus. The documents obtained included the female student organization's work program for preventing digital-based violence against women. The results, the santriwati's role in overcoming violence against women using the KUPI trilogy approach, namely santriwati as agents of pioneering good content in the digital world (ma'ruf), santriwati together with santri act as partners in the digital world (mubadalah), and santriwati as drivers of social justice in the digital world (keadilan hakiki). The novelty in the study was the concept of "Mbak Santri Cantik Jelita" as a concept for increasing the role of santriwati in preventing digital-based violence against women. The concept embodied in several pesantren's programs, theoretically has implications for the development of role theory and practically can become a role model, namely santriwati who have intelligence, ethics, and insight in innovating and using digital media for digital-based prevention of violence against women in other pesantren.

Abstract

Early childhood educators, especially in faith-based institutions, need to have a deep understanding of children's spirituality in order to design and respond to spiritual experiences that arise spontaneously. This study aimed to explore the personal insights and experiences of educators regarding spirituality, as well as their understanding and approaches in fostering spirituality among young children. A qualitative research design was employed, guided by three key questions. The sample included nine educators from a faith-based early childhood program in Kudus, Central Java, specifically involved with 3 and 4-year-olds in class A, which consisted of three classes. Data collection techniques using observation, interviews, and documentation. Findings indicated that the personal insights and experiences of educators play a pivotal role in boosting children's spirituality. Consequently, there are significant opportunities to support educators in their own development and to provide relevant information regarding children's spirituality. Based on the findings, it is suggested that to effectively nurture children's spirituality, educators should cultivate their own sense of personal spirituality, which entails having experienced spiritual events in their own lives essentially spiritual formation. Additionally, educators must possess the knowledge and skills to reflect on their spirituality and effectively integrate these experiences with their early childhood teaching methodologies in order to create meaningful spiritual opportunities for children. The study recommends enhancing the competencies of educators in promoting the spirituality of young children. This research contributes valuable insights into the understanding of spirituality within religious-affiliated early childhood education settings.

Abstract

This article examines women’s collective action against land grabbing on Pari Island, Jakarta Bay, through the framework of Feminist Political Ecology (FPE). Land grabbing in Indonesia’s coastal areas often marginalises local communities, with women disproportionately affected due to their reliance on land and marine resources for subsistence and livelihoods. Using a qualitative case study approach, the research draws on in-depth interviews and focus group discussions (FGDs) with four women from the Women’s Group in Pari Island. The findings show that women’s struggles extended beyond direct protest to include the development of gendered ecological knowledge—such as vegetable gardening and mangrove planting—and grassroots activism through arisan, beach management, and solidarity networks. These are transforming everyday ecological labour into claims over space, rights, and justice. Despite persistent challenges—restrictive gender norms, criminalisation, stigma, and the lack of generational succession—women secured small but significant victories. These included the Ombudsman’s recognition of maladministration, political support from the UN Special Rapporteur on the Right to Food, and local economic strengthening through community-based tourism. The study emphasises the importance of integrating gender perspectives into the analysis of coastal land conflicts and calls for greater institutional support for women’s leadership, education, and advocacy in sustainable resource governance.

Abstract

The high prevalence of child marriage in Indonesia has become a pressing issue, not only at the national but also at the global level. Preventive efforts require a collaborative and multi-faceted approach that goes beyond legal regulations and incorporates social, psychological, spiritual dimensions, as well as marriage guidance. This article aims to explore a collaborative psychosocial-spiritual governance model that integrates marriage guidance in the prevention of child marriage in Indonesia. This research was conducted using an exploratory qualitative approach in Jombok Village, Trenggalek, East Java, and Woro Village, Rembang, Central Java. Data was collected through in-depth interviews with various stakeholders including government officials, religious leaders, local psychologists and cultural figures, local activists, NGOs, as well as couples/families experiencing child marriage. The research results indicate that social innovation for preventing child marriage is implemented through the principles of collaborative governance based on a psychosocial-spiritual approach, with multi-level involvement from villages, sub-districts, to districts. Education, mentoring, and marriage counseling programs are carried out in stages, encompassing social assistance based on child protection, psychological support, and strengthening religious values. This approach demonstrates that effective prevention strategies are not only focused on formal regulations but also on value transformation, community capacity building, and creating an ecosystem that supports children's rights. The overall efforts aim at preventing child marriage in a more holistic, inclusive, gender-just manner, and contextualized with the local values of Indonesian society.
Harmonizing law and faith: The validity of female instrumentaire witnesses in notarial deeds and the principle of gender justice Effendi, Basri; Qasthary, Auzan; Angkasa, Muhammad Akbar; Lestari, Chadijah Rizki

Abstract

The issue of female instrumentary witnesses in notarial deeds is significant due to differing perspectives between Indonesian positive law and Islamic law. The Notary Office Act (UUJN) does not differentiate witnesses based on gender, as long as they are adults, legally competent, and independent. In contrast, some classical Islamic views consider women’s testimony in muamalah matters to be worth half that of men, as stated in Surah Al-Baqarah verse 282. This raises questions regarding the validity of notarial deeds involving female instrumentary witnesses. This study employs a normative juridical method with a conceptual approach through library research, including UUJN, the Qur’an, classical exegesis, and academic literature. The analysis is qualitative with deductive reasoning, comparing positive legal norms and Islamic law, while also interpreting their relevance through the principle of maqashid al-shari‘ah. The findings show that under Indonesian positive law, a notarial deed remains valid even with female witnesses, since the key requirement lies in legal competence rather than gender. Meanwhile, classical Islamic law restricts women’s testimony, but contemporary interpretations grounded in maqashid al-shari‘ah emphasize justice and equality, thereby granting women equal standing in giving testimony. In conclusion, the use of female instrumentary witnesses in notarial deeds does not contradict Indonesian positive law or contemporary Islamic legal principles. This study highlights the importance of harmonizing national law and Islamic law so that Indonesia’s legal system can be more responsive to justice and gender equality values.

Abstract

TikTok was one of the fastest-growing social media platforms in Indonesia, particularly among Gen Z and millennials. This article aimed to analyze the role of the TikTok algorithm in shaping content consumption patterns based on gender and age. The study employed a qualitative approach using two main techniques. First, content analysis was conducted on 200 popular videos appearing on the For You Page to identify thematic tendencies. Second, in-depth interviews were carried out with 30 active users in Surabaya (15 women and 15 men), selected purposively based on the intensity of their usage and the diversity of their backgrounds. These findings were complemented with data from two audiences’ insight platforms revealing fluctuating gender distribution among TikTok users in Indonesia. At certain periods, women dominated the user base, while at other times, men accounted for a higher percentage. This dynamic indicated that the TikTok algorithm was responsive not only to individual preferences but also to demographic shifts. The results showed that women were more likely to consume lifestyle, beauty, and aesthetic-related content, whereas men more frequently engaged with humor, sports, and technology. The novelty of this study lay in the finding that Gen Z demonstrated flexibility in crossing gender stereotypes; for instance, women actively engaged with technology content, while men were interested in beauty-related content. Thus, the TikTok algorithm functioned both to reinforce gender- and age-based preferences and to provide space for identity negotiation within the digital cultural sphere. This study contributed to gender, technology, and social media studies in Indonesia.
