MEMBUKA RUANG PUBLIK: GERAKAN DEMOKRATISASI LOKAL MELALUI FORUM WARGA DAN PERAN STRATEGIS PEREMPUAN
ABSTRACT: This paper argues
that in the era of decentralization of developmental democratization at the
local level through forums involving citizens have not yet formally involved
strategic roles of women. The author reviews on how women’s strategic role on
the local level has not been entirely met by mechanisms of formal channels at
the village level. Taking a case study in Indramayu, the author outlines issues
of democratization through various citizen forums that show problems of
political participation that turn out to limit the role of women. The
transformation of the public decision making structure on the local level
should collaboratively involve aspirations of women who are still engaged in
informal political context.
