This study stems from the phenomenon of social movements advocating for the legitimacy of the Domestic Workers Protection Bill. It questions the state’s ability to fulfill the demands of such social movements. Employing a socio-legal approach, this study utilizes the concept of cannibalistic capitalism and Nancy Fraser’s dualism perspective. This study reveals that the domestic workers’ social movement demands both recognition and redistribution through the enactment of the proposed bill. However, Indonesia’s legislative paradigm does not allow the state to provide both recognition and redistribution to domestic workers through the law. At best, the state might offer recognition, however redistribution remains unlikely. © 2024, Gadjah Mada University Faculty of Law. All rights reserved.
