Abstract
The Indonesian government has passed the Law on the Elimination of
Domestic Violence (PKDRT Law) to provide comprehensive protection, including
guarantees of legal protection and victim recovery. Domestic violence is stated
in article 1 point 1 of Law Number. 23 of 2004 concerning the elimination of
domestic violence. means any action against a person, especially women, which
results in physical, sexual, psychological, and or domestic neglect, including
threats to commit acts, coercion, or unlawful deprivation of independence
within the scope of the household. Domestic violence can occur to husbands,
wives, and children as well as those within the scope of the household. There
are two main underlying causes of domestic violence. Firstly, economic factors.
The economic factor in question is the lack of established economic conditions
in the household so that the many demands that arise in the household are
unable to be fulfilled. This condition is what then triggers conflict and even
acts of domestic violence. Secondly, a patriarchal culture which embraces the
meaning of a social system that places men as the main power holders and
dominates in the role of political leadership, moral authority, social rights,
and control of property. A patriarchal culture that sees paternal lineage
indirectly gives birth to the idea that women have a lower position than men
(subordinate). Which ultimately involves many women becoming victims of
domestic violence. The objectives of this research are: To find out the
implementation of the Domestic Violence Policy at the Palu
City Women's Empowerment and Child Protection Office. The research design uses
descriptive qualitative. This research is designed within one year.

Policy Implementation, Domestic Violence
On 22 September 2004, the Indonesian government passed
the Law on the Elimination of Domestic Violence (UU PKDRT) to provide
comprehensive protection, including legal protection and victim recovery.
Domestic violence as stated in article one point one of
Law Number 23 of 2004 concerning the elimination of domestic violence. means
any action against a person, especially a woman, which results in physical,
sexual, psychological, and or domestic neglect, including threats to commit
acts, coercion, or unlawful deprivation of independence within the scope of the
household.
Seeing
the data on cases of domestic violence that always increases every year at the
end of the year issued by the National Commission on Violence Against Women, of
course, raises many questions to the public about the existence of Law No. 23
of 2004 which regulates the elimination of domestic violence.
To carry out the prevention of domestic violence, the
minister whose duties and responsibilities are in the field of women's
empowerment carries out preventive measures, among others, organizing
communication, information, and education on the prevention of domestic
violence.
The integrated service center
for women's and children's empowerment was established by the ministry of
women's empowerment and child protection in every province throughout
Indonesia, which aims to provide services for acts of violence against women
and children and seeks to contribute to the empowerment of women and children
to realise gender equality and justice, it can be seen how the process of implementing
the policy of Law Number. 23 of 2004 is by the laws and regulations.
Looking at the situation of the problem of high cases of
domestic violence that occurred in the province of Central Sulawesi, the
researcher was interested in taking a research locus, precisely in the city of Palu which
is also one of the cities that
reveals many cases of domestic violence. From the data obtained from interviews
with the integrated service center for women's
empowerment and child protection of Palu City, 88 cases of domestic violence were recorded
from 2017 to 2018 reported in the jurisdiction of Palu City.
�The implementation
of the elimination of domestic violence policy in the Palu
city women's empowerment and child protection office Researchers relate to the
theory put forward by Charles O. Jones (Leo, 2016) in
carrying out program implementation activities or policy implementation, there
are three types of activities that need to be considered carefully, namely
organization, interpretation, and application.
�From the
results of the study, researchers saw that the implementation of the Policy on
the elimination of domestic violence in the Palu City
Women's Empowerment and Child Protection Office showed that it had not run
optimally.
����� By looking at the problems described
above, researchers are interested in raising the theme of the implementation of
policies to eliminate domestic violence in the Palu
city women's empowerment and child protection office because looking at the
situation and conditions based on data, Palu city is
one of the areas with domestic violence emergencies. In addition, the reason
researchers took the theme of the elimination of domestic violence policy at
the women's empowerment and child protection office in Palu
city women's empowerment and child protection office was to find out how much
the government's role was in implementing the domestic violence elimination
policy.
To find out the
assessment of informants on the Implementation of the Elimination
of Domestic Violence Policy
at the Women's Empowerment and Child Protection Office of
Palu City, researchers have conducted in-depth interviews
consisting of three aspects, namely organisation,
interpretation, and application.
Where the three aspects above are based on the theory put forward by Charles O
Jones quoted (Agustino,
2016: 154: 155) (Wahid et al., 2022)
Charles O. Jones
(1996: 296) (Agustino, 2016: 154-155) (Archer et al., n.d.), explains the organization in policy implementation,
namely the formation or rearrangement of resources, units, and methods to make
the program run. Thus, each organization must have an organizational structure,
qualified human resources as implementing personnel, and facilities and
infrastructure that can support the implementation of policies to eliminate
domestic violence.
The
organizational structure provides a clear picture of positions, duties, and
functions and is a framework of work guidelines for employees to realize the
vision and mission of the Palu City Women's
Empowerment and Child
Protection Office. For the tasks
of implementing policies to eliminate domestic violence
to be carried out by applicable regulations,
each officer is required to have adequate abilities in their respective fields.
(Sovacool et al., 2018) states that
Interpretation is interpreting policy language into appropriate plans and
directions that can be accepted and implemented. Interpretation is a process of
oral communication between two or more people. To find out the Implementation
of the Elimination of Domestic Violence Policy at the Women's Empowerment and
Child Protection Office of Palu City in terms of
interpretation, it can be seen whether the implementation of the market
retribution policy has been implemented by the applicable rules and regulations.
According to Charles O. Jones (1996: 296), states
that implementation is the routine provision of services, payments, or others
tailored to the objectives or equipment of the program (Paulweber et al., 2010). An implementation
is an act of putting into practice a theory, method, and other things to
achieve certain goals for the benefit of a group that has been planned and
arranged in advance. Policy implementation can be carried out well if the
routine implementation of government regulations can be carried out by carrying
out activities to achieve policy objectives. Implementation in the form of
routine service provision in terms of providing services by policy goals and
objectives and equipped with clear work procedures.
METHODOLOGY
This research uses
a qualitative-descriptive approach through field
study. field study is conducted in in-depth interviews
to explore
information in-depth, open, and free with the problem and focus of research and
directed at the research center (Adongo et al., 2013).
Primary data
sources in this study are informants/resources who master the problem, have
data, and are willing to provide complete and accurate information. They are
the employees of the Office of Women's Empowerment and Child Protection of Palu
City. Data
collection of primary data sources was conducted through in-depth interviews with the people mentioned above. Secondary data
was also collected in the form of documents supporting the study.
The
collected data were then tested for data validity using construct validation
and internal validation techniques. Construct validation was carried out by
collecting as much evidence as possible and verification with key informants,
while internal validation was carried out by matching, explaining, and analyzing the timing of events. Furthermore, the validated data
were analyzed using qualitative data analysis techniques.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Implementation of the Policy on the elimination of domestic violence
in the Office of Women's Empowerment and Child Protection of Palu City by looking at the three pillars of policy
implementation, namely organization, interpretation, and implementation/application
by conducting interviews involving several informants who are considered to
know and understand the problems to be studied. Each informant is identified to
get to know each informant more closely to understand each informant's
characteristics so that the information obtained is optimal according to the
level of the researcher�s needs.
1.
Organization
In terms of organization, the implementation of
policies to eliminate domestic violence in the Palu
City Women's Empowerment and Child Protection Office shows that it has not gone
well, with several influencing factors, among others, the existing organizational
structure has not been running according to its duties and functions, human
resources and a sense of empathy are still very minimal and inadequate
infrastructure in implementing policies to eliminate domestic violence.
2.
Interpretation
In terms of interpretation of the Implementation
of the Policy on the elimination of domestic violence at the Palu City Women's Empowerment and Child Protection Office,
it shows that it has not been effective as a whole in carrying out procedures
by Law No. 23 of 2004 concerning the elimination of domestic violence regarding
socialization, communication and education to the community so that there are
still many people who do not know clearly about the policy.
3.
Application
In terms of application/implementation, the
implementation of the elimination of domestic violence policy in the women's
empowerment and child protection office of Palu City
shows that it has not been running optimally because it has not been fully
implemented in accordance with existing regulations, so that the services
provided by the relevant government agencies, namely the women's empowerment
and child protection office of Palu City together
with the integrated service center for women's empowerment and child protection
of Palu City are very limited. So that the community
complains about the services provided. besides that, economic and cultural
factors are also one of the obstacles to the application of the elimination of
domestic violence policy in Palu City.
CONCLUSION
The implementation of the policy on the
elimination of domestic violence in the Office of Women's Empowerment and Child
Protection of Palu City shows that it has not gone
well because three aspects are not fulfilled as a tool used to research, namely
organisation, interpretation, and application.
This can be seen from the organisational
aspects that have not fully carried out their respective duties and functions,
minimal resources and empathy, and also inadequate infrastructure in the
implementation of policies to eliminate domestic violence. Apart from that, the
Interpretation aspect has not been running well as a whole. As well as from the
aspect of Application / Application has not been running well because it has
not been fully implemented by existing regulations, so the services provided by
the relevant government agencies, namely the Office of Women's Empowerment and
Child Protection of Palu City, in addition to
economic and cultural factors are also one of the major obstacles to the
application of policies to eliminate domestic violence in Palu
City.
