Abstract

Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menguji bagaimana faktor gender dan kekuasaan dapat menentukan keberadaan perempuan sebagai pemimpin di lembaga pendidikan tinggi khususnya di daerah Jakarta dan Bandung, yang dianggap sebagai destinasi favorit untuk pendidikan tinggi. Dengan adanya dukungan dari pemerintah Indonesia yang didasari oleh hukum konstitusi yaitu Undang Undang 1945  pasal 28 (2) yang menyatakan bahwa setiap orang memiliki hak untuk bebas dari segala bentuk diskriminasi, bisa dikatakan bahwa tidak ada hambatan bagi kaum pria dan perempuan untuk memperoleh tingkat tertinggi dalam karir mereka, terutama di sektor pendidikan. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan pengumpulan data melalui wawancara mendalam dengan tiga Dekan perempuan dari Fakultas Matematika dan Ilmu Pengetahuan Alam (MIPA) dariuniversitas yang dipilih (swasta dan publik). Hasil penelitian menemukan keberadaanteori Glass ceiling yang masih dirasakan selama masa periode promosi jabatan dari ketiga Dekan MIPA yang diwawancara.  Gender, budaya, dan agama adalah tiga faktor yang memainkan peran yang sangat penting dalam menentukan apakah perempuan bisa tampil sebagai pemimpin di lembaga pendidikan tinggi. Dengan demikian, masih terbentang tantangan bagi kaum perempuan sebagai pemimpin di sektor pendidikan dimana tantangan tersebut masih merintangi kemampuan akademik dan bekerja mereka. Kata  Kunci: gender, kekuasaan, pendidikan tinggi, glass ceiling.   The objective of this research is to examine how gender and power will determine whetherwomen can be leaders in higher education institutions particularly in Jakarta and Bandung areas; as considered to be most favorable destination for higher education purposes. With support from the Indonesian government under constitution law article 28 (2) 1945that states everyone has the right to be free from any kind of discrimination, there is almost no barrier for men and women to obtain the highest level in their career, especially in the educational sector.  This research used a qualitative approach with data collection through in­depth interviews with three women who were deans of the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences (MIPA) from selected universities (private and public). The interviews uncovered the existence of a thin glass ceiling theory that was still felt during their promotional period.  Gender, culture, and religion play very important roles in determining whether women can perform as leaders in higher education institutions. Thus, overcoming the challenges for women as leaders in education sectors are still overpowering their academic and working capabilities. Keywords: gender, power, higher education, glass ceiling.

Abstract

This article dissects the practice of gender typification of the iPhone through three layers and explore how the hegemonic relationship between Apple, the community; the moderator and its members. Combining Judith Williamson's semiotics approach and the theory of encoding-decoding from Stuart Hall, it was found that there were differences in gender construction between Apple and the moderator of @idevice.indonesia community and its members. Apple has never explicitly proclaimed the iPhone as a sexed product, if so they have used subtle gender typifications through color coding, objects, and design. Whereas the @ idevice.indonesia community and members, carry out gender typification closely with stereotypes within patriarchal culture. This finding explains that prosumer such as @ idevice.indonesia community and its member has benefited Apple because as a producer, they continues to echoes iPhone through various uploads and comments on Instagram @ idevice.indonesia. On the other hand, prosumer was detrimental to Apple in terms of ideology because it destitute the gender awareness and gender bender ideas that Apple has carried throughout the iPhone’s marketing effort. The @ idevice.indonesia community and its member has ultimately looked at iPhone as a feminine product in a binary gender perspective. To cite this article (7th APA style):Kania, D. (2021).

Abstract

Excellence theory yang dikembangkan oleh James E. Grunig menyebutkan bahwa organisasi yang menerapkan excellence communication memiliki tiga komponen (sphere) yang saling berkaitan satu sama lain, yaitu knowledge core, shared expectation, dan participative culture. Studi ini bertujuan untuk melihat sejauhmana excellence theory dapat diterapkan pada lembaga pemerintah sebagai badan publik yang hingga kini sedang menjalani proses reformasi birokrasi. Penelitian dilakukan di Biro Humas Badan Pemeriksa Keuangan Republik Indonesia (BPK-RI), dengan menggunakan pendekatan deskriptif kualitatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa, pada organisasi yang belum sepenuhnya menjalankan budaya partisipatif, khususnya antara pimpinan BPK-RI sebagai koalisi dominan dengan Biro Humas sebagai komunikator, maka penerapan excellence theory tidak optimal. Hal ini karena, budaya partisipatif (participative culture) adalah dasar dari adanya hubungan yang sinergis antara harapan koalisi dominan dengan harapan komunikator (shared expectation), yang pada gilirannya juga memengaruhi bagaimana komunikator mengimplementasikan pengetahuan (knowledge core) dalam menjalankan tugasnya.
