WOMEN'S POLITICAL PARTICIPATION IN THE VILLAGE

Women in Kabobona Village are still trapped in a patriarchal culture during the rapid development of rural culture toward modern culture. As a result, they still feel gender inequality. Patriarchal culture places men as superior, both in the household and the public sector. Women are considered as parties who have to work hard in the household and in the public sector, but their efforts are not appreciated, even though their existence is seen as a compliment. Women are the main actor inside and outside the house, but their nature is to serve the family (servant). This study aims to identify the role of women in the household and the public sector viewed from their participation in politics. This descriptive study used a qualitative design. The data search used observation, in-depth interviews, secondary data searches, and literature studies.
