Abstract:
Political education for women politicians is ineffective because women are still considered
merely as an ‘object’ to perpetuate patriarchy political dynasty. This study utilizes a legal inter-
diciplinary methodology. It selects five political parties. Respondents are female politicians who
have experiences on political education, anti-corruption and gender equality issues. Most of
political parties are dependent with political figure as a ‘strong leader’. Political education’s
curriculum is a doctrinization of parties’ political figures. It lacks of anti-corruption and gender
equality perspectives. Reform should start from within by changing its paradigm into member-
based mass political party, so political education can leverage female politicians.
Keywords: political education, anti-corruption, gender equality, oligarchy-patriarchy, mass-
party.
