REPRESENTASI PEREMPUAN DALAM DPRD PROVINSI JAWA TENGAH PERIODE 2019- 2024 DARI TINJAUAN FIQH SIYASAH

Abstract

Islam does not prohibit women from being involved in politics because everyone has the same rights and opportunities as servants of Allah SWT. The involvement of women in politics is highly expected to produce gender responsive policies. The purpose of this study is to analyze the representation of women in regional legislative institutions in Central Java province for the period 2019 to 2024 from the fiqh siyasah perspective. The novelty in this research is that it uses the fiqh siyasah theory in analyzing women’s representation in legislative institutions especially in Central Java which has not been widely used considering that previous research has mostly discussed women’s representation in general. The method in this study uses descriptive qualitative research and uses literature studies to collect secondary data. Literature study data analysis techniques emphasize secondary data that is relevant to the researcher’s research to solve research problems. The results of the study show that the representation of women in regional legislative institutions in Central Java province for the period 2019 to 2024 has not yet reached a quota of 30 percent in 2009 to 20 percent in 2019. Factors that cause women’s representation in DPRD Central Java 2019 to 2024 consists of a patriarchal culture, limited economic capita, the emergence of negative streotypes against women. The recommendation in this research is to improve recruitment within political parties which provides more opportunities for women to contest in politics, not just a 30 percent quota as an administrative requirement for political parties to be able to participate in elections.
