“…The language used in media does not merely aim to convey meanings; it is also crucial to accomplish actions, goals, and purposes (Gee & Handford, 2012). Thus, people, particularly those behind the media, can exercise their power in any context by using language (Udasmoro, 2013). The linkage of media, language, social or cultural structures, and power were the basis of this study.…”

The media presents gender stereotyping through its journalism works on a daily basis. This media framing could shape consumers’ beliefs and values. Women become the objects of media stereotyping since they are omitted from the discourse, condemned for the traditional gender role, and trivialized for being dependent. The rise of alternative media, including feminist media, challenges this situation. Magdalene, as one of the feminist media, releases a project of ‘How Women Lead’ podcast series. These podcast series are highlighted as the object to analyze how feminist media framing challenges the symbolic annihilation of women leaders. This paper intends to explore the framing of Indonesian women leaders in feminist media and to elaborate on the ways this feminist media challenges symbolic annihilation. The concept of symbolic annihilation in mass media by Tuchman (2000) becomes the basis of analysis. She classifies this concept into three categories; omission, condemnation, and trivialization. By employing Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), this paper focuses on the power held by media for shaping people’s ideology through interpretation and explanation. The result proves that Magdalene through the ‘How Women Lead’ podcast series could promote inclusivity, opportunity, and independence as the main notions to challenge symbolic annihilation, particularly for women leaders.

“…Women experience marginalization, stereotypes, and exploitation in their life due to the masculine domination intensely practiced in society (Udasmoro & Anwar, 2019). However, those discriminative practices are always connected to other social categories, such as social class, age, education, and ethnicities (Crenshaw, 2013).…”

“…The exercise of power in this positioning is interesting to observe, particularly its occurrence in an international airport and its connections with gender relations and social class. Space is always positioned differently where the power is always exercised in many different ways (Udasmoro & Anwar, 2019).…”

Indonesian female migrant workers are a group that has over time experienced physical, psychological, and verbal violence in their jobs in foreign countries. The story presented of the struggles of this subordinated group of women remains one-sided and incomplete. The untold part of the story are the experiences they have encountered domestically from within their own country, Indonesia. This article argues that the subordinated position of Indonesian female migrant workers is initially created and strongly reinforced through the discrimination they face within specific social settings in the Indonesian context. One such social setting is at Indonesian international airports. Indonesian international airports are where the female migrant workers are positioned as “others”; rules put in place and their enforcement by airport officials and other passengers show the exclusion of female migrant workers from Indonesian society. Such positioning is an act of discrimination, exploitation, and exercise of power. This study examines what discourses are used in positioning these Indonesian female migrant workers in Soekarno Hatta International Airport, Jakarta. The authors argue, using research data and gender theories, that the positioning of Indonesian female migrant workers is a discursive act. It is committed by various individuals, particularly those (in the power system) that have the position of “we” and “us”, to preserve the social classes, which have become normalized throughout Indonesian history. The research found that the discrimination against female migrant workers is strongly connected to their social class. Although they have financial capital, their position is considered lower than other people in the airport, which creates multiple forms of discrimination, from material to symbolic discrimination and stereotypes.

“…Furthermore, the role of different agents in preserving the Javanese language in those areas is taken into account for analysis. As for globalization and cosmopolitanism, these two aspects occur at a macro level in DIY and have become an actual profile of the province (Udasmoro & Anwar, 2019). These mixtures include the amalgams of national, racial, ethnic, religious, and cultural backgrounds, among others.…”

The purpose of this study is to map the vulnerable Javanese language in the Special Region of Yogyakarta, namely in the City of Yogyakarta and in the regencies of Sleman, Gunungkidul, Kulon Progo, and Bantul. Furthermore, it seeks to understand the role of different agents in preserving the Javanese language in those areas. Due to the dominating use of Indonesian language, the Javanese language has decreased in usage in various modes of communication in schools especially Jawa krama (medium-register variety). Making this language vulnerability mapping is important to locate in the context of the region, the language vulnerability that occurs more than other regions. This mapping can be used by the policy makers to strengthen the Javanese language used in the regions. A geographic information system was used to map the language's vulnerability in this region. The findings of this research are, first, there is an even distribution of the level of language vulnerability throughout the region, especially in the declining usage of Jawa krama. Second, schools no longer serve as agents in the preservation of the usage and competence of the Javanese language, especially Jawa krama. Third, family and social environments still hold potential for the preservation of the Javanese language, although mostly for Jawa ngoko.
