Hukum, Ideologi Patriarki, dan Kekerasan Sistematik Atas Perempuan—Suatu Kajian Žižekian

Abstract

This article aims to reveal that the concept of law, which has been interpolated by patriarchal ideology, is systematic violence. This study uses a la Žižekian critique of ideology which also formulates a concept of systematic violence. In cultural practice, patriarchy has become a dominant ideology that causes the normality of circumstances so that the practices of repression and oppression that exist in society were covered in such away. Slavoj Žižek constitutes a conception of systematic violence, namelyviolence that is at the ideological level which in practice sublimates violence which in the end, this violence cannot be seen with the naked eye and becomes a common and even natural view. In practice, the legal constellation in the configuration of patriarchal ideology is present as a repressive and discriminatory tool of power. Thus, the solution is to destroy the proposition of a patriarchal ideology, which is a necessity to reformulate a gender-just legal politics, namely by redefining gender in its plural form instead of gender in a binary constellation.
