Countering Patriarchy Hegemony

The dominance of male leadership in politics indicates that patriarchal hegemony by the media is deeply entrenched in various layers of society. Women who enter political leadership are considered subordinates of men. Such dominant patriarchal hegemony has undermined and suppressed women’s leadership in the political sphere. This article aims to discuss how Megawati Soekarnoputri in Indonesia and Margaret Thatcher in the United Kingdom emerged against the patriarchal hegemony entrenched in the political systems of their respective countries. We applied a qualitative approach and desk study as a research method, as well as Gramsci’s concept of counter-hegemony. The analysis shows that there were three primary issues that Megawati and Thatcher opposed: (1) dependence on men in building political careers, (2) weak female leadership, and (3) the expectation for women to be obedient. By opposing these issues, these two women leaders could stand out in their respective political arena.

Analisis Retorik Pidato Politik Megawati Soekarno Putri Pada Peringatan Ke-50 Tahun PDI-P

Megawati Soekarno Putri's existence on the Indonesian political stage has been going on for more than two decades. During this period, Megawati has managed to maintain her position as a charismatic female political figure. Despite public doubts about her figure, Megawati is the de facto leader of one of the largest parties, as well as the only female president who has ever led the Republic of Indonesia. As a politician who has a strong character, Megawati has never escaped the media spotlight. Through her various controversial statements, Megawati's remarks are cited as a hot topic of discussion in the media. Reflecting on his charisma and rhetorical power, Megawati's speech is an interesting rhetorical phenomenon to analyze. Speech by Megawati Soekarno Putri on the Birthday of the Indonesian Democratic Party – Struggle (PDI Perjuangan), was a form of ceremonial speech filled with political messages. Megawati's speech was delivered in a heated political atmosphere, ahead of the contestation moment for the 2024 Presidential Election. This study aims to analyze the rhetorical strategy used by Megawati to reveal the implicit meaning contained in it. Referring to the rhetorical analysis method, the results of the study show that Megawati's speech applies the typical communication style of female leaders. Apart from that, Megawati's speech also applied a rhetorical strategy that was oriented towards emphasizing aspects of personal identity as a descendant of Bung Karno, authority as chairman of the PDI-P, and his superiority over President Jokowi as his cadre. Megawati's rhetorical strategy also shows that she is not an inferior female leader.

DINAMIKA PERTUMBUHAN POHON DI HUTAN RESTORASI BODOGOL TAMAN NASIONAL GUNUNG GEDE PANGRANGO, JAWA BARAT

The Restored Forest (RF) in Bodogol, Gunung Gede Pangrango National Park (GGPNP) is located in the degraded lowland forest area. The Bodogol RF constituted the area of the ecosystem restoration program, where the initial tree planting was carried out by Mrs. Megawati Soekarnoputri the 5th President of the Republic of Indonesia. In that restored forest area, a study was conducted by establishing one hektare plots. We recorded 26 tree species and 16 families, including 14 tree species that were used in the restoration, four cultivated species, and eight species that naturally enter the site as new arrival (recruitment). The total basal area was 7.47 m2/Ha and tree density was 256 trees/Ha. The mean diameter growth was 1.78 cm/year, and the highest diameter growth was Hibiscus tilliaceus (2.42 cm/year). The mean total height growth was 0.52 m/year, and the highest was Paraserianthes falcataria (0.85 m/year). The density of Toona sureni was very high (61 trees/Ha) and in the future it ay dominate the forest will, therefore other tree species native to Mt. Gede-Pangrango should be planted to enrich the present restored forest so as to encourage the development of mixed lowland or montane forests similar to the original climax forests with high species diversity. Structurally, about 50 % of the RF has been achieved, but species composition still needs further enrichment either by active intervention of planting native TNGGP species if deemed necessary or by allowing succession to take place naturally, although it will take a very long time.

Reproduction of Knowledge for Power: Critical Discourse Analysis of Scientific Articles and Speeches of Megeawati

The inauguration of Megawati Soekarnoputri as an honorary professor at the Defense University of the Republic of Indonesia became a topic of conversation among the public because this was the first time this had happened in Indonesia. Megawati wrote a scientific work entitled "President Megawati's Leadership in the Era of Multidimensional Crisis, 2001-2004" and gave a speech at her inauguration as Non-Permanent Professor. The two texts discuss the problems that occurred during the era of Megawati's leadership, policies to overcome problems, and the emergence of a model of "strategic leadership based on Pancasila". The leadership discourse formed by Megawati is interesting to discuss considering Megawati's position, who is the general chair of the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDI-P), as well as chair of the Steering Committee of the Pancasila Ideology Development Agency (BPIP) and the National Research and Innovation Agency (BRIN). This research uses a qualitative approach with a critical paradigm. The research method uses critical discourse analysis coined by Fairclough, where Megawati's scientific work and inauguration speech are reviewed from the perspective of text, discursive practice and social practice. Fuchs, Habermas, and Foucault's views on knowledge and power are used to help uncover discursive practices and their impact on social practice. Based on the results of the analysis, Megawati is building a positive image as an influential strategic leader to this day. The leadership model he initiated focuses on the leader's ability to influence others and pay attention to the role of the people in decision making. The knowledge that is built is Pancasila, which is the basis for every social activity which actually reduces its values to a controlled knowledge system. The impact that arises is that the state's control over individuals is increasingly tight, down to the cognitive level. When drawn to the momentum of the 2024 general election, leadership discourse was used to help Megawati and her group return to power.

Political Pathways and Performance of Women Opposition Leaders in Indonesia and South Korea

While some world regions have seen women opposition leaders with no ties to political families rise to national leadership, in East Asia, women opposition leaders who ascend to national executive positions have been largely limited to the wives, daughters, or sisters of prominent male politicians. Locally, however, there have been some broadening and diversification of women who seek and win executive office through oppositional politics. Given the small number of women opposition leaders who have gained leadership positions in the government, this article develops an interpretive study of the relationship between becoming “critical actors” and doing “critical acts” as women opposition leaders. Using four illustrative cases of women who have pursued executive power through oppositional politics, this article questions whether and how the variation in women’s pathways affects their exercise of power in Indonesia and South Korea, two young though consolidating democracies in East Asia. Drawing on the biographies and policies of two presidents (Megawati Soekarnoputri and Park Geun-hye) and two mayors (Tri Rismaharini and Kim Soo-young) it shows that local women opposition leaders use their executive leadership to initiate and implement public policies, unlike their national counterparts whose pathways and performance are intertwined with family background. By doing so, the article sheds light on the complex nexus between political pathways and performance of women opposition leaders.

The diversity of staple foods in contemporary government policies is accommodated in short-term, local, or partial scale programs, and not adaptive to changing times. Thus, the fulfillment of community’s staple food is still dominated by non-inclusive food policies.
