Women’S Roles

Up to now, there is still a little number of activities for female choreographers sothat we can rarely watch dance performances composed by them. However,some dance performances in Yogyakarta and Surakarta are composed by femalechoreographers with gender themes. Setyastuti, Inong and Maruti perform theirworks with various themes related to woman life in Indonesia and describe theroles of women in the colonial era through these works. Some of the works areinteresting to be discussed from the gender perspective. The term ‘gender’ refersto social, cultural, and biological senses. This perspective leads to a view orunderstanding about women’s roles that are determined by nature, and theirgender roles, which are determined by society and culture. The different genderfor men and women creates problems if it causes unfair treatment related to menand women’s rights and opportunities.Keywords: dance performance, gender, female choreographers

Women’S Rights

Freud's translation of J.S. Mill involved an encounter with the traditions of British empirical philosophy and associationist psychology, both of which go back to Locke and Hume. The translation of Mill's essay on Plato also brought Freud into contact with the philosophical controversy between the advocates of intuition and faith and the advocates of perception and reason. A comparison of source and translated texts demonstrates Freud's faithfulness to his author. A few significant deviations may be connected with Freud's ambiguous attitude to women's rights, as advocated in the essay The Enfranchisement of Women. Stylistically Freud had nothing to learn from Mill. His model in English was Macaulay, whom he was also reading at this period.

The Impact

Promoting the ratification of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) was a key objective of the transnational women's movement of the 1980s and 1990s. Yet, few studies examine what factors contribute to ratification. The small body of literature on this topic comes from a world-society perspective, which suggests that CEDAW represented a global shift toward women's rights and that ratification increased as international NGOs proliferated. However, this framing fails to consider whether diffusion varies in a stratified world-system. I combine world-society and world-systems approaches, adding to the literature by examining the impact of women's and human rights transnational social movement organizations on CEDAW ratification at varied world-system positions. The findings illustrate the complex strengths and limitations of a global movement, with such organizations having a negative effect on ratification among core nations, a positive effect in the semiperiphery, and no effect among periphery nations. This suggests that the impact of mobilization was neither a universal application of global scripts nor simply representative of the broad domination of core nations, but a complex and diverse result of civil society actors embedded in a politically stratified world.
