Women and Political Parties: Equality, Justice in Feminist Law
Abstract
The need to present women's interests in politics is a necessity in order to achieve political equality, the State is obliged to make it happen. The fulfilment of women's rights in politics is the fulfilment of human rights that are often not fulfilled properly due to discrimination. Women as one of the vulnerable groups in human rights is due to various social, cultural, economic or religious conditions. This article argues that in Indonesia the representation of legislative members is still dominated by men. The justification of women in politics is only limited to numbers and only as a formal requirement for political parties participating in the general election. This is very likely to have an impact on the quality of decisions taken. Women's representation in politics in quantity is not merely intended to avoid the dominance of one gender in political institutions that formulate public policies. More than that, the policies taken by members of parliament should be regardless of gender, should still fight for the interests of women. This article concludes that women's representation in the political field seen in feminist law with a gender approach is in the context of revising the Law on Politics, especially in the Law on Political Parties. The function of political parties in political education for women as well as synchronisation and harmonisation of women's representation in the Political Package Law. Legal products made must reflect a sense of justice and equality for women themselves.
