This research aims to explore women’s political interactions in the modern era. The development of 4.0 industrial society which is characterized by the digitalization in people’s daily life also has an influence on women in politics. Changes in the participation of women in politics develop and take various forms that are influenced by advances in technology. This study used qualitative analytical descriptive approach with female informants. They were divided into groups of women who used their right to vote and women who had the right to vote. Huntington’s theory of political modernization is used as the instrument to analyze the data in this research, a research with a feminist perspective. The results showed that; 1) women have made progress in politics, seen from; their political participation, political socialization, political education, and the increasing women’s empowerment in politics and government, 2) women’s political modernization was in line with the increasingly strong demands for gender equality from global and national feminists, the rule of law that still affirms women, and this modernization had an impact on women’s participation. Based on these results, a recommendation could be given, that is the need for government intervention and political parties in directing women in facing change for the better.
