Childfree Discourse in the Kasisolusi Podcast: Critical Discourse Analysis of Teun A. Van Dijk’s Model
Journal Title: International Journal of Social Science And Human Research - Year 2025, Vol 8, Issue 01
Abstract
Gita Savitri and her husband discussed the childfree phenomenon in 2023. Her actions, which have drawn pros and cons, have been widely discussed by the media, including the Kasi Solusi Podcast. The podcast has the power to influence public opinion and show the marginalization of Gita Savitri. This study examines the child-free discourse using Teun A. Van Dijk's Critical Discourse Analysis model. The aim is to describe the form of text, social cognitive, and social context dimensions of the child-free discourse in the Kasi Solusi Podcast. This study uses qualitative methods and collects data through observation and documentation techniques. Data were collected and analyzed through three stages: data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion. The form of the text dimension is described through verbal expressions dominated by Gita Savitri's childfree theme and three supporting themes (childfree is outside human nature, childfree is influenced by the social environment, and childfree is influenced by psychological factors). The form of the social cognitive dimension consists of religious and psychological perspectives that reject childfree because religious and professional ideologies influence it. The form of social context dimension shows the existence of Dery's great power so that Dery has broad access to managing the platform. Especially for monetization purposes.
