Disparitas Sosial, Komunikasi Politik dan Partisipasi Politik Gender
Abstract
The aim of this research is to analyze and offer strategies to increase women's political participation
in Islamic societies. The benefit of this research is to increase awareness in Islamic communities
about the importance of gender equality in participating in politics and to increase women's political
participation in Islamic communities. The theory used in this research is the social construction
theory of gender. This research uses descriptive qualitative methods to analyze data related to gender
inequality in political participation in Islamic communities. Data was collected through interviews
with several informants who are experienced in Islamic politics and society. The research results
show that gender inequality in political participation in Islamic communities is visible in several
aspects. First, women are still given less opportunities to participate in the political decision-making
process. Second, women still experience discrimination in accessing information and resources
needed for political participation. Third, women still experience stigma and stereotypes that prevent
them from participating in politics. The suggestions and recommendations in this research, such as
increasing awareness, developing resources, eliminating stigma and stereotypes, and developing
partnerships, are expected to help overcome gender inequality in political participation in Islamic
communities.
