Abstract

This research is about whether or not Indonesian female youth Moslem are easily accepting religious values packaged with popular icons in a Moslem magazine. In this magazine, teenagers do not have to wear long, loose dark colored clothes, but they may wear light colored, tight and trendy dresses known as modern hijab. The main goal of this research is understanding female youths’ reception over Muslimah magazine applying Stuart Hall’s encoding and decoding approach. Primary data were collected by in-depth interview toward selected readers. The results are: (1) the ability of parents to control their teenagers’ religious behavior affect teenagers’ reading over Muslimah. (2) Informants who live with their parents younger than 20 years old, and have strong connection with religious peer group—tend to build negotiated readings. (3) Informants who do not depend on their parents—older than 20 years old, and have professional jobs—tend to rely more on mass media for seeking religious information more than their peer group or parents. Therefore, they tend to agree with Muslimah coverage which emphasized more on modern Moslem youth lifestyle than on its syariah (religious values).

Abstract

There was a discussion activity conducted by a small club of the University of Indonesia called SGRC (Support Group and Resource Center on Sexuality Studies) at the beginning of January 2016. It did not only discuss sexuality such as sexual preferences but also conduct peer support for LGBT groups. However, it was reported illegal for many reasons. Although later the “illegal” stamp was dubbed as an "internal problem" of Universitas Indonesia, the effect was unbelievable. The activity of SGRC was reported by media as “LGBT’s attack on campus”, “LGBT is dangerous for campus”, et cetera. Moral, Eastern hemisphere norms, and religious excuses were the main excuses by media to judge and “punish” the LGBT groups. After the SGRC incident, particularly in 2016, the media, both mainstream and online, massively promoted homophobia through hate speech. The media reported the LGBT phenomenon as not only dangerous but also as entities that must be destroyed. Although not as splashy as online news, some television stations reported the case in their ways. TvOne, compared to other Indonesian TV stations, was the most often to discuss LGBT issues from 2016-2018 through a debate programme titled Indonesia Lawyers Club (ILC). The most controversial episode was the one aired on February 16 whose topic was “LGBT Issues is Rising, How Should We React?” in which a participant, a psychiatrist, was accused of delivering false information. His statement was even responded by a U.S.-based international psychiatrist association which later sent him a warning letter. This paper will explore media framing on tvOne’s debate programme using Robert Entman’s Framing Methods. The result shows that through inviting certain debate participants who voiced certain statements, the TV programme promoted not only anti-LGBT actions but also homophobia.

Abstract

Wanita Tunggu Tubang secara paradoks memegang baik posisi terhormat maupun subordinat dalam komunitas Semende. Mereka bekerja untuk melestarikan budaya dan melakukan tugas mereka, namun pada saat yang sama mereka harus menghadapi berbagai masalah di ruang publik. Pertanyaan penelitian ini adalah bagaimana posisi ini secara sosial dibangun, dan teori yang diterapkan untuk menjawab pertanyaan adalah teori konstruksi realitas sosial. Pendekatan yang dipakai adalah kualitatif, dengan paradigma konstruksionisme kritis dan teknik sampling kriteria. Kegiatan para wanita dalam penelitian ini diamati dalam jangka waktu dua minggu, dan dua informan kunci dengan pekerjaan yang berbeda, kelas sosial, dan tempat tinggal diwawancarai. Studi ini menunjukkan bahwa konstruksi yang bias gender telah diproduksi dan direproduksi melalui penyebaran keyakinan seperti itu sejak kecil dan dominasi merajes di ranah sosial. Selain itu, perempuan Tunggu Tubang melihat posisi dan peran mereka sebagai takdir dan identitas budaya yang harus mereka terima. Namun, perspektif semacam itu tidak begitu luas di kalangan informan yang tinggal di daerah yang lebih maju karena gaya hidup mereka lebih berorientasi ekonomi dan praktis. The Tunggu Tubang women paradoxically hold both a respectable as well as subordinate position in the Semende community. They work to preserve the culture and perform their duties, yet at the same time they have to face various problems in the public sphere. The research question herein is how this position is socially constructed, and the theory applied to answer the question is that of the construction of social reality. The method chosen is that of the qualitative research, coupled with the critical constructionism paradigm and criterion sampling technique. The activities of the women in this study were observed in a period of two weeks, and two key informants with different jobs, social classes, and places of residence were interviewed. This study indicates that a gender-biased construction has been produced and reproduced through propagation of such belief since childhood and dominance of the Merajes in social realms. In addition, Tunggu Tubang women perceive their position and role as their destiny and a cultural identity which they have to assume. Such perspectives, however, are not as pervasive among informants living in more advanced areas as their lifestyle is more economy-oriented and practical

Abstract

Media telah menggambarkan kecilnya partisipasi perempuan dalam mengatasi dampak pemanasan global, walaupun perempuan memiliki peran penting dalam mengurangi dampak fenomena ini. Hal yang menarik untuk di pelajari adalah bagaimana perempuan memaknai pemberitaan lingkungan. Riset ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kesadaran perempuan terhadap perubahan iklim. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan menggunakan FGD dan hasilnya dianalisis dengan menggunakan paradigm konstruksionis kritis dan perspektif ekofeminisme. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa: (1) ada tiga kelompok khalayak perempuan, (a) mereka yang memiliki pekerjaan terkait dengan lingkungan, (b) mereka yang pekerjaannya tak terkait dengan lingkungan tetapi memiliki kepedulian untuk menjaga lingkungan, (c) mereka yang pekerjaannya tak berhbungan dengan lingkungan dan tak memiliki kepedulian terhadap dampak perubahan iklim. (2) Bagi kelompok kedua dan ketiga, melestarikan lingkungan berarti menjaga lingkungan tetap bersih dan hal ini tak terkait dengan kegiatan mengurangi dampak pemanasan global. (3) Kedua kelompok tersebut memiliki pemaknaan yang serupa dengan media: bagi mereka, perempuan adalah sosok yang bertanggungjawab atas kelestarian alam, dan proses sosialisasi terhadap ramah lingkungan dimulai dari rumah atau keluarga. Tentunya, kelompok yang pro terhadap lingkungan memiliki pemaknaan yang berbeda. Secara singkat, pemaknaan para narasumber bervariasi dan tergantung pada perspektif, karakter dan perilaku masing-masing kelompok.

Abstract

Fenomena kekerasan terhadap TKW (Tenaga Kerja Wanita) terus muncul, termasuk kasus Ruyati yang dianggap fenomenal karena pemberitaan media sangat intensif. Penelitian ini bertujuan mendeskripsikan kasus Ruyati yang dibingkai dan disuarakan oleh media melalui para narasumber perempuan. Teori yang digunakan adalah standpoint theory dan konsep feminist media. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode analisis framing Entman. Sumber data diperoleh dari pemberitaan koran Kompas, Media Indonesia, dan Republika, karena ketiganya memberitakan kasus Ruyati dan TKI lebih intensif dibandingkan dengan koran lain sejak tanggal 20 Juni sd 1 Juli 2011. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan; (1) Munculnya nada pesimis terhadap kinerja pemerintah dalam menyikapi kasus TKI; (2) Posisi perempuan sebagai narasumber jumlahnya lebih sedikit dibanding laki-laki. Secara kuantitatif, media massa belum menunjukkan pembelaan cukup berarti kepada TKW. Kaum perempuan yang biasanya menjadi korban kekerasan tidak diberi posisi berarti untuk menyuarakan kepentingannya; dan (3) Nada suara narasumber laki-laki menekankan pembenahan di bidang politik, hokum, dan ekonomi yang terkait dengan TKW, sedangkan kepedulian narasumber perempuan berfokus pada penyelamatan individu TKW seharusnya dilakukan melalui diplomasi tingkat tinggi.

Abstract

Social media plays an important role during the Covid-19 pandemic, where physical activity and community mobility are limited. Especially for women who work as domestic workers who live with their employers. Social media is the only means for them to connect with the outside world.Previous studies have shown that a person's identity can be shown through the front stage and the back stage. Theoretically, this study analyzing how women domestic workers identify themselves through the online realm using social media. This study uses a constructivist paradigm and a qualitative approach.  The research participants were three women domestic worker who were obtained purposively using the snowball sampling technique. Data was collected through in-depth interviews and observation to participants. The results of the study show that social media allows participants to construct a reality in the online realm that is different from their situation in real life. Therefore, social media has a very important meaning for participants, because with social media, participants feel their position is equal to other users. They also have access to create a front stage and a back stage, where they can create their ideal self-identity. The aspect of self that are presented by the participants on the front stage is individuals who are successful and happy with their lives. For participants, this is an aspect of their ideal self, even though it does not represent their actual state.

Abstract

Introduction: This study aims to show the misrepresentation of minority groups, specifically widowed women (hereinafter referred to as janda) in the era of convergence of media content (television as well as streaming and social media) in Indonesia. Media as the fourth pillar of democracy are supposed to inform and represent everything in a balanced and fair manner, instead of favoring the interests of the majority. The question we attempt to answer is: how the misrepresentation of janda on converged media content (FTVs) in a patriarchal society?Methods: This study applied feminist perspective in media convergence as well as the narrative analysis of Chatman.Findings: In general, the results of the study show that the convergence has not been in favor of janda, indicating that internet technology does not only strengthen the gender-biased values of media industry person in massively distributing FTVs (via streaming and social media) that threaten minorities, but also ignores the opposing feedback from netizens. As a result, the minority groups are increasingly muted. Reproduction of labelling of janda is a strategy of media owners to obtain maximum profits.Originality: We noted many studies on janda conducted from various scientific perspectives. However, studies that observe the depiction of janda in the media convergence in the perspective of communication studies are scarce. This study provides a discussion on the representation of janda in the vortex of capitalism in media convergence as the major novelty in this line of study.

Abstract

Women domestic workers are often associated with females whose only task is completing domestic work. However, this construction has changed along with the development of the labour industry. Currently, they are associated with skilled domestic workers. The relationship between women domestic workers and their employer that was previously based on kinship is supposed to have shifted to a formal relationship, with work and wage agreements. This construction is also strengthened by the presence of social media, as a means for conveying their narrative as skilled workers and not just servants for their employers. This study examines the process of symbolic interactionism in women domestic workers through their narratives as skilled domestic workers. The data was collected qualitatively from four women domestic workers in the Jakarta area as the research participants. As a metropolitan city, Jakarta has the highest number of domestic workers in Indonesia. Based on the data analysis, women domestic workers conceptualised their profession as experienced and versatile individuals in performing various domestic work and are the backbone of their respective families. Therefore, this conceptualisation shows that the participants can break away from the stereotype that domestic workers are lowly and unskilled workers. The interaction between participants and their employer raises non-physical symbols reflecting dedication and loyalty. In addition, the interaction process is a learning tool for subjects to obtain resources that equalise them with other workers in the domestic sector.
