Women, Class, Society in Indonesia - ZHSS3505 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Description In past Indonesian state ideology, women were predominantly confirmed in their roles as loyal companions to their husbands, educators and guides for their children, and procreators for the nation. In reality, women's contribution to Indonesian society has been in much wider fields and more diverse roles. This course will analyse women's thoughts about and experiences in both mainstream and alternative categories of marriage, family life and sexuality; politics, professional work and the informal sector; and culture, art and media representation. The course will identify class as one of the key factors determining the social conditions of individual Indonesian women and men. Indonesian major students will be required to read some Indonesian materials in this course.
