Structural analysis of Sundanese women’s participation in legislative institutions
Downloads
This study examines Sundanese women's participation in legislative institutions through a structuration theory approach. The purpose of this study is to understand how Sundanese women navigate and challenge socio-political barriers that hinder their political engagement. We used a qualitative phenomenological approach to collect data through in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis, aided by NVivo 12 software for data reduction and coding. The research findings reveal a complex dynamic in which structural factors significantly shape political participation, but individual agency plays an important role in challenging and changing these structures. This discussion contributes to the broader debate on gender, politics, and empowerment in the Indonesian context. To enhance women's political involvement, we require policies and initiatives that tackle systemic obstacles while also fostering personal autonomy.
