Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk membahas representasi sosial perempuan pada sistem birokrasi. Semakin modern masyarakat, semakin luas ruang bagi perempuan untuk mengakses berbagai hal, akses terhadap pendidikan, sumber daya ekonomi, dan posisi di ruang kerja. Studi ini berfokus pada aksesibilitas perempuan pada posisi yang berkaitan dengan pengambilan keputusan. Aksesibilitas ini akan mengungkap seberapa mampu perempuan berperan dalam membangun dunia sosialnya. Penelitian ini menggunakan teori Representasi Sosial, Serge Moscovici untuk alat analisis. Teori Representasi Sosial merupakan teori turunan dari konsep Kesadaran Kolektif Emile Durkheim. Teori Representasi Sosial, Moscovici mengungkap sistem pengetahuan individu dibentuk oleh struktur budaya dan agama, sehingga mempengaruhinya dalam membuat pilihan dan menghadapi realitas sosial. Pendekatan kualitatif digunakan untuk mengetahui representasi sosial perempuan pada sistem birokrasi. Studi ini menganalis sistem pengetahuan perempuan berkontestasi dengan norma masyarakat demi menjaga keterlekatan dengan kolektifnya. Representasi sosial perempuan merupakan hasil negosiasi dan kontestasi sistem pengetahuan dan kesadaran individu (individual consciousness) dengan norma sosial
