"Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis konstruksi politik tubuh dalam tokoh-tokoh perempuan utama dalam novel Pillars of Salt dan My Name is Salma karya Fadia Faqir, serta menyimpulkan apakah ilustrasi perjuangan para tokoh tersebut dalam melawan manifestasi politik tubuh yang opresif mendobrak atau justru menguatkan representasi Barat mengenai perempuan Muslim. Menggunakan metodologi kualitatif-deskriptif dengan pendekatan close reading sebagai metode analisis, penelitian ini berangkat dari stereotipe perempuan Muslim dari sudut pandang Barat yang cenderung negatif dan asumsi bahwa novel-novel penulis perempuan Arab umumnya bertujuan untuk mendobrak stereotipe tersebut. Penemuan penelitian ini adalah: pertama, tokoh-tokoh protagonis dalam kedua novel menjadi obyek dari berbagai bentuk politik tubuh yang dikenakan para tokoh laki-laki Timur maupun Barat, dan kedua, meskipun kedua teks tersebut terlihat menguatkan representasi Barat bahwa perempuan Muslim mengalami opresi, namun sesungguhnya mendobrak anggapan Barat bahwa perempuan Muslim cenderung pasif dan patuh. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa patriarki dan kolonialisme merupakan dua sistem yang membatasi resistensi dan menguatkan marjinalisasi perempuan, dan media operasi kedua sistem tersebut adalah tubuh.

This research aims to analyse the construction of body politics in the female protagonists in Pillars of Salt and My Name is Salma by Fadia Faqir, and to draw a conclusion on whether the illustration of the female characters‘ struggles against the oppressive manifestation of body politics succeed to challenge, or conversely to strengthen, western representation of Muslim women. Using a qualitative methodology with a close reading approach as a method of analysis, this research builds on the western stereotype of Muslim women that tends to be negative and the assumption that Anglophone Arab female writers commonly intends to challenge such stereotype.

The findings of this research are: first, the female protagonists in the novels of Pillars of Salt and My Name Is Salma underwent several forms of body politics that were imposed by both eastern and western men, and second, although these texts seem to strengthen western representations of Muslim women as oppressed, but it actually challenge the western portrayals of Muslim women as passive and obedient. This research concludes that it is both patriarchy and colonialism that overturn their resistance and strengthen female marginalisation, and that both systems take place first and foremost through the body."

"Movements advocating body positivity aim to subvert the stigma surrounding certain body types, including the stigma of the ‘fat’ body. Such movements are widespread across different regions around the world, and the messages they uphold are being brought up in many art and media forms. This research studies two films made in America, I Feel Pretty (2018), and Indonesia, Imperfect (2019), which focus on protagonists struggling with their body image. Looking into the narrative and cultural context, the writer conducts textual analysis to reveal the body politics that is portrayed in both films. Using Jeannine Gailey’s theory of hyper(in)visibility and Susan Bordo’s feminist body politics, this research found that even though the films attempt to show an extent of resistance and inclusivity, the ‘fat’ female bodies are portrayed in a paradoxical manner as they affirm fat stigmatization.
