3. EMANSIPASI KEJAHATAN: STUDI GENDER TERHADAP PEREMPUAN SEBAGAI PELAKU KEJAHATAN NARKOBA TRANSNASIONAL

Abstract

It has been long and common to accept that female are less likely to commit crime than
do male. However, some researchers rejected this idea (Adler, 1975; Simon 1975;
Steffensmeier & Allan, 1998). They argued that emancipation and gender equality were
decisive factors to explain how and why female with better equality and represent in
previously male dominated occupations caused a steady increase in the number of crime
over recent years. According to those assumptions, this paper tries to connect the relation
between emancipation and gender equality with transnational drug crime. This paper
deduces that the higher emancipation and gender equality which female get, the higher
transnational drug crime will occurred. But after further testing through mixed method
analysis, this paper concludes that higher emancipation and gender equality will precisely
reduce the intensity of transnational drug crime by female. Later, this paper also
discovers that female with higher emancipation and gender equality actually are the
victim, and so female with lower emancipation and gender equality are the pure doer of
transnational drug crime.
