| dc.description.abstract | Women's leadership in executive and legislative positions has become an important phenomenon in Aceh, because the number of women's involvement in every public or political activity has not been significant. The purpose of this study is to find out how the Acehnese paradigm is historically constructed and deconstructed. The problem raised is how the Acehnese people's paradigm towards women's leadership in Aceh and what kind of discourse will help Acehnese women in achieving gender justice. The method in this research is a case study with a qualitative approach. The research subjects are Acehnese women figures, and the objects in this study are academics, NGO‟s (social institutions), community leaders and political figures. The location of this research is in the city of Banda Aceh. Data collection techniques through observation and in-depth interviews. The theory used is the theory of leadership, gender politics and habitus. The results of this study explain the paradigm of the Acehnese people towards the leadership of women who have held positions or are in the process of being nominated positions. The implementation of Islamic culture and system tends to hamper women's movement with the principle of protection. The restrictions on women's roles by patriarchal culture make Acehnese women shackled and receive discriminatory treatment. This inequality between the roles of men and women is one of the structural and cultural barriers that causes individuals in society to not have equal access. The differences in roles, functions, and responsibilities between men and women which are the result of social construction and can change according to the times. Although the government has enacted a law on gender representation, namely in Law number 2 and number 10 of 2008 concerning political parties related to women in political activities, 30% of positions. However, in practice, most Acehnese women are still used as a condition for fulfilling quotas. Some views of the community regarding the representation of women in the executive and legislative branches are considered to have not been able to meet the needs of the community, especially for Acehnese women. Judging from several periods in the legislature, the women who occupy these positions have never made any changes, because they only represent Acehnese women symbolically. | en_US |
