NYAI SUTARTINAH'S NATIONALISM BASED ON PSYCHOHISTORY APPROACH

Abstract

Ethical politics is a response from the Netherlands to Indonesia, which has filled its cash void. There are three moral politics programs: education, irrigation, and emigration. The field of education is very influential because it can give birth to a specific group. They are aware of the gap between their people and the colonial. A fighting organization was born and dominated by men, resulting in a women's organization. The research method used in this journal is the theme of Nyai Sutartinah; heuristics are carried out on books and journals, source criticism is carried out by reading these sources to find credible data; interpretation processes sources into writing data, and historiography, writing about Nyai Sutartinah's nationalism with a psychohistorical approach. Psychohistory is part of psychoanalysis that studies a person's behaviour in the past and its influence on an attitude. The attitude to be learned is nationalism. Nationalism is an identity of a unified group regardless of language, ethnicity and religion. The figure of Nyai Sutartinah is the subject of this research. He is a descendant of the Pakualaman palace and was born in 1890. Since childhood, he has received an education. Seeing the education inequality for women around him, he and Ki Hadjar Dewantara founded an educational institution called Wanita Taman Siswa. Apart from that, another struggle is being involved in the women's congress in Yogyakarta.
