Abstract

Feminism is a political movement and the issue that makes women importance to enter the policy is limited participation and their small role in policy-making and decision making. Feminist critique of the policy field as in other areas is that the theory and concepts of political science are masculine and have been set by men, about men and in favor of men. Feminists believe that Power cannot be defined as universal. Definition of power as domination and control, prefers the male standards and possibility ignores the collective power. This aspect of power usually does not take into consideration of women. Even indications reveals that the development would not neutral. In fact, development in many ways ignored women. Concern and the key question in this respect is that how are the interactions of governments and organizations considering Feminism? The main hypothesis is that politics is in the sense that the presence of women in politics and foreign territory be ignored. From the feminist view, four major problems exist in the mainstream of international relations, namely: lack of gender awareness, lack of attention to women's issues and gender issues in international theories, ignoring the consequences of international issues for women, and patriarchy in the field of international relations. Evidence shows that development is never neutral. In fact, development in many ways ignored women. From Perspective of Feminist considering the foreign policy decision-making character variable that is male dominated, division of International work is gained gendered mode. International companies seek cheap labor force is cheap and in most cases means working women. Although the function of international organizations due to political issues of the world, especially in the context of human rights notes, is not without criticism, but they must be recognized as an environmental factor that can have influence to political systems.
