“…The research of state ibusim (motherhood) in Indonesia, for instance, tries to reveal gender trouble in terms of motherhood but the researcher more focused on the power relation between state and women (Suryakusuma, 1996). Also, in other exploration of woman and labor, some scholars tended to elaborate the problem of feminization of labor as the trigger to criticize motherhood conception (Caraway 2007, Jones 2004.…”

This paper attempts to explain the discourse of motherhood in both South Korea and Indonesia. It is based on the interesting dynamic of being mother that is much influenced by the interrelated actions played by number of dominant actors around woman itself. By using a comparative study, it is found that the map or the trace of political economy in terms of developmental agenda, in fact drives the difference flows in shaping the notion of motherhood. In Indonesia, for being mother, women exist in the intersection of state intention, industrialization and culture pressure. Indonesian motherhood is interestingly in line with another analysis, such in their relation with housemaids. Meanwhile, in South Korea, the description of motherhood occurs in the middle of nationalism spirit, competition, ambience and family routine. Hence, this study concludes that being mother is highly contested and closely associated with the endless structural and cultural issues.

“…The Indonesian New Order state enjoined women to feel a sense of duty through discourses of familism, 'mother-ism' and 'house-wifization,' all of which idealized women's domestic roles (Jones, 2004). But employment in Saudi Arabia involves long periods of time spent away from families.…”

This paper focuses on the emotional discourses invoked in efforts to frame and control Indonesian women's labor migration to Saudi Arabia. Based on interviews with migrant recruiters, state officials, and migrants in West Java, as well as data collected by migrant rights activists, the paper examines the emotional vocabularies and imagined geographies of gendered piety that are deployed in attempts to mobilize, direct, and discipline women's transnational labor migration. It explores articulations of women's virtue as a key dimension of the moral geographies of Indonesian women's overseas migration. More broadly, it suggests that such attention to struggles over the regulation of emotion can serve as a lens onto the ways in which gender articulates with the religiously-inflected transnational labor market linking Indonesia with Saudi Arabia.
