Politik dan Perempuan: Kajian Kegagalan Caleg Perempuan PDIP pada Pemilu Legislatif Kota Ambon Tahun 2019
Abstract
This article discusses the failure of female legislative candidates from the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP) in the 2019 Legislative General Election in Ambon City. This research employs a qualitative approach with an explanatory research method. The research findings reveal that this failure can be attributed to several key factors. First, party recruitment and cadreship have not been optimally executed, leading to inadequate preparation for female candidates. Second, the political leadership of women within the party remains minimal, resulting in a lack of support and opportunities for female candidates. Third, the prominence of female figures is also limited, leading to reduced appeal and influence for female candidates. Finally, a low social base diminishes the electability potential of female candidates. The results of this research provide crucial insights into the role of women in politics within a local context and highlight the need for improvements in party recruitment, cadreship, and support for female candidates. Additionally, this study underscores the importance of employing an explanatory qualitative approach in analyzing political and gender-related issues.
