FEMINIZATION OF POVERTY: A STUDY OF WOMEN HOUSEWIFE IN COMMUNITIES IN MEDAN CITY
Main Article Content
Abstract
This paper tries to explain the phenomenon of women's marginalization in the city of Medan. Several feminist theoretical concepts are used to analyze how the construction of social systems positions women in the reality of their lives. Then, read the position of women's oppression in their poverty or women's poverty in their oppression. This discussion is important because the fact shows how many women struggle with poverty which often seems to go against their nature. In this position, this discussion is expected to open an understanding of the domination of women in culture. This study uses a descriptive-phenomenological approach, as an effort of exploration and clarification which then explains the phenomenon of impoverishment of women as a social reality. The shackles of poverty for women in this study are based on two things, namely their powerlessness in fighting paternalistic cultures and their obstacles in finding better economic access for a more dignified life.
