Strategi Partai Politik untuk Meningkatkan Keterwakilan Perempuan dalam Kepengurusan Partai Sebagai Implementasi dari UU No. 2 Tahun 2008 tentang Partai Politik (Studi Kasus terhadap DPC PDIP Kota Medan)

Abstract

Enactment of a quota of 30% woman representation in 2008 Political Parties point 2, has provided an opportunity for women to participate in political arena. During this time, the management of political parties dominated by men due to political activities considered as a masculine activity. If the representation of women is left entirely to men as policy makers, of course, will result in an equitable conditions and a very small chance of men fight for the women interest because men do not act like women concept. It should encourages women to get involved in the membership of a political party that is able to involve themselves in the next parliament. 30% woman representation in the management of turns cannot be implemented properly by the DPC PDIP Medan. PDI-P as one of the big party in Indonesia and woman as a leader of the party have only 3 seats out of 15 women stewardship positions. If elected as party officials, lack of preparedness and commitment of women cadres make the multiple roles of women caders, they do not have enough time, the low level of political education and little experience in politics resulted in low representation of women in the management of DPC PDIP Medan. Then we need a strategy to increase the representation of women in management such as increasing political education, increasing the political recruitment, optimizing the role of party branch organization, develop the party system to be more democratic and do economic empowerment.
