Konstruksi Sosial Perempuan Generasi Z atas Pernikahan di Era Digital: Studi pada Perempuan Berkarir di Desa Warujayeng Kabupaten Nganjuk
Abstract
This study aims to understand the social construction of generation Z women towards marriage in the digital era, especially for career women in Warujayeng Village, Nganjuk Regency. Using a social construction theory approach, this study reveals how changes in views on marriage are influenced by several aspects. The results of the study indicate that generation Z women see marriage as a choice that is adjusted to personal and career aspirations, no longer as a social obligation. Social media plays an important role in shaping this view and providing space to share broader perspectives on marriage. This study indicates that career women in the digital era can construct the meaning of marriage according to their needs and life conditions without being bound by traditional norms that apply in society.
