Abstract

Penelitian ini berjudul BEHIND THE GLAMOUR: ANALYZING IMELDA MARCOS' POLITICAL TRANSFORMATION IN 'THE KINGMAKER' Movie 2019 yang menganalisa transformasi politik Imelda Marcos yang ditampilkan dalam film dokumenter "The Kingmaker". Film dokumenter ini menggambarkan perjalanan hidup Imelda Marcos sebagai istri dari Presiden Ferdinand Marcos dan upayanya untuk mengembalikan kejayaan keluarganya melalui transformasi kekuasaan politik yang ia raih di masa lalu melalui putranya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menjawab beberapa pertanyaan: (1) Apa saja representasi transformasi politik Imelda Marcos dalam film The Kingmaker yang merefleksikan dinamika kekuasaan dan gender? (2) Bagaimana perspektif feminis postmodern dapat digunakan untuk menganalisis pengaruh Imelda Marcos dalam politik Filipina, seperti yang digambarkan dalam film The Kingmaker tahun 2019? (3) Bagaimana film The Kingmaker menggambarkan dualitas antara citra publik dan pribadi Imelda Marcos, dan dampaknya terhadap persepsi gender dan kekuasaan? Penelitian ini menggunakan Butler, Judith. Masalah Gender: Feminisme dan Subversi Identitas. Routledge, 1990. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa naiknya Imelda Marcos ke puncak kekuasaan merupakan hasil dari penggunaan strategis posisinya sebagai istri Presiden, kontrolnya terhadap peran dan proyek-proyek utama pemerintah, kemampuannya untuk memanipulasi media dan persepsi publik, dan keterampilannya dalam membangun dan memelihara jaringan pribadi yang luas. Faktor-faktor ini dikombinasikan untuk menjadikannya salah satu tokoh paling kuat dan berpengaruh dalam politik perempuan Filipina, bahkan terkadang membayangi suaminya dalam beberapa aspek. Kata kunci: Imelda Marcos, transformasi politik, film dokumenter "The Kingmaker", teori politik feminis, politik Filipina. / This research is titled BEHIND THE GLAMOUR: ANALYZING IMELDA MARCOS' POLITICAL TRANSFORMATION IN 'THE KINGMAKER' Movie 2019. which analyzes Imelda Marcos' political transformation as shown in the documentary "The Kingmaker". The documentary depicts Imelda Marcos' life journey as the wife of President Ferdinand Marcos and her efforts to restore her family's glory through the transformation of political power she achieved in the past through her son. This research aims to answer several questions: (1) What are the representations of Imelda Marcos' political transformation in The Kingmaker that reflect power and gender dynamics? (2) How can a postmodern feminist perspective be used to analyze Imelda Marcos' influence on Philippine politics, as depicted in the film The Kingmaker movie 2019? (3) How does the movie The Kingmaker portray the duality between the public and private image of Imelda Marcos, and its impact on perceptions of gender and power?. This research uses Butler, Judith. Gender Trouble: Feminism and the Subversion of Identity. Routledge, 1990. The results show that Imelda Marcos' rise to the pinnacle of power was the result of her strategic use of her position as the President's wife, her control over key government roles and projects, her ability to manipulate the media and public perception, and her skill in building and maintaining an extensive personal network. These factors combined to make her one of the most powerful and influential figures in Philippine women's politics, sometimes even overshadowing her husband in some aspects. Keywords: Imelda Marcos, political transformation, the documentary "The Kingmaker", feminist political theory, Philippine politics.
