Analisis dan refleksi mengenai perkembangan demokratisasi di Indonesia pasca-Orde Baru (setelah lengsernya Suharto sejak Mei 1998) dapat ditinjau dari perkembangan demokratisasi di tingkat lokal. Kebijakan desentralisasi baru, khususnya mengenai mekanisme pemilihan kepala daerah secara langsung (pemilukada langsung) sejak tahun 2005, merupakan salah satu rangkaian demokratisasi di tingkat lokal. Tulisan ini menganalisis demokratisasi di tingkat lokal, khususnya melihat dampak pemilukada langsung terhadap peran politik dan kepemimpinan perempuan. menganalisis tata cara pemilihan kepala daerah sesuai ketentuan UU No. 32/2004 dan data jumlah kandidat perempuan yang mencalonkan diri dalam pemilukada langsung sejak tahun 2005 memberikan gambaran tren, karakteristik, dan prospek kepemimpinan perempuan yang muncul di tingkat lokal. Analisis terhadap tren dan karakteristik kepemimpinan perempuan di tingkat lokal sebagai dampak positif demokratisasi di Indonesia merefleksikan pemahaman baru tentang peran agama (khususnya Islam), gender, dan hubungan kekerabatan (familial ties) sebagai faktor penting yang ditemukan dibalik fenomena politik tersebut.
