Kesemua perkara yang terkandung di dalamnya menyentuh aspek berkaitan masyarakat tempatan dan lingkungannya. Kekayaan budaya lokal ini tercermin melalui kajian dan penulisan makalah yang menghubungkan kearifan tempatan dengan pelbagai dimensi seperti budaya Melayu dan keturunan Jawa, seni kraf, adat perkahwinan, sosioekonomi, sosiobudaya, arkeologi, seni reka dan makanan tradisi. Selain itu, buku ini akan mengangkat kearifan tempatan sebagai potensi pelancongan dengan mengenal pasti kawasan-kawasan yang terlibat. Dalam penjelasan yang berbeza, ia turut dibahaskan dalam aspek tertentu dalam Islam untuk menjelaskan nilai tambah definisi kearifan tempatan itu sendiri. Tentunya, ia memberi satu pengertian bahawa kearifan tempatan itu luas sifatnya dan sumbangannya tidak terhad kepada pentafsiran dan pemahaman satu cabang disiplin ilmu sahaja. Keterbukaan inilah yang mampu membangunkan semula takrif kearifan tempatan dan menangkis paradigma-paradigma yang menyimpang daripada nilai-nilai kearifan tempatan.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Buku ini memberi fokus kepada warisan sakral sama ada yang masih wujud serta diamalkan, mahupun yang telah lama ditinggalkan oleh masyarakat, umumnya di Nusantara. Sakral secara khusus bermaksud suci, mempunyai kuasa khas malah ajaib serta luar biasa, sering dikaitkan dengan hal yang bersifat kudus, transenden, misteri, sempurna dan mempunyai kesan transformatif kepada kehidupan dan takdir masyarakat yang mengamalkan dan menganutinya. Biarpun dunia kini telah semakin maju dan menjunjung tinggi nilai sains dan teknologi dalam kehidupan dan pembangunan negara, hakikatnya masyarakat yang menjadi asas kemajuan itu adalah manusia yang pernah tinggal dan merasai pengalaman sakral yang dilaksanakan dan dipercayai oleh generasi terdahulu. Sakral adalah sebuah pengalaman yang dilalui dan dipelajari secara tidak langsung oleh semua kelompok masyarakat dan wajar untuk dijadikan warisan dan rujukan kepada generasi akan datang tentang konsep “suci” yang pernah menjadi tonggak kepada kebudayaan dan adat istiadat sesebuah masyarakat. Konsep suci ini menyangkut hal-hal yang wajib diterima tanpa bantahan dan diakui benar-benar terjadi tanpa pembuktian dan hanya bersandarkan cerita dan kepercayaan orang tua-tua yang pernah mengalami, mendengar kembali atau mengaitkan amalan tersebut dengan peristiwa dahsyat yang pernah terjadi puluhan tahun malah ribuan tahun sebelumnya. Buku ini mengumpulkan 11 bab yang memberikan fokus kepada pelbagai aspek warisan sakral yang menarik dan luas sifatnya di Nusantara. Penelitian dibuat sekitar pelbagai isu yang melibatkan masyarakat Melayu di Semenanjung Malaysia, Melayu di Selatan Thailand, Bajau Semporna di Sabah, Dusun di Brunei, Mandailing di Medan, Indonesia, Cina di Pulau Pinang, Malaysia dan Tionghua di Jawa Barat, Indonesia. Buku ini merupakan hasil pendokumentasian ketiga kumpulan tujahan Warisan Sakral dengan pengumpulan data kajian yang menghubungjalinkan para penyelidik dari Malaysia dengan rakan-rakan serantau di Thailand, Brunei dan Indonesia. Semoga buku ini dapat dimanfaatkan sebaiknya untuk meningkatkan pemahaman serta pengetahuan masyarakat tentang warisan sakral Nusantara yang pelbagai rencam, unik serta menarik sifatnya untuk diperhalusi.

Download or read book The Divine Bureaucracy and Disenchantment of Social Life written by Maznah Mohamad and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-03-02 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book traces the expansion of Islamisation within a modern and plural state such as Malaysia. It elaborates on how elements of theology, sacred space, resources, and their interactivity with secular instruments such as legislative, electoral, and new social technological platforms are all instrumentally employed to consolidate a divine bureaucracy. The book makes the point that religious social movements and political parties are only few of the important agents of Islamisation in society. The other is the modern and secular state structure itself. Weber’s legal rational bureaucracy or Hegel’s ethical bureaucracy predominantly characterises a modern feature of governmentality. In this instance an Islamic bureaucracy is advantageously situated not only within an ambit of modernity and therefore legality, but divinity and therefore sacrality as well. This positioning gives religious state agents more salience than any other form of bureaucracy leading to their unquestioned authority in the current contexts of societies with Muslim majority rule. One of the requisites of this condition is the homogenisation of Islam followed by ring-fencing of its constituents. The latter can involve contestations with women, other genders, ‘secular’ Muslims, non-Muslims as well as dissenting Muslims with their differing truthful ‘Islams’.

Download or read book Language Choice in Postcolonial Law written by Richard Powell and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-02-24 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses multilingual postcolonial common law, focusing on Malaysia’s efforts to shift the language of law from English to Malay, and weighing the pros and cons of planned language shift as a solution to language-based disadvantage before the law in jurisdictions where the majority of citizens lack proficiency in the traditional legal medium. Through analysis of legislation and policy documents, interviews with lawyers, law students and law lecturers, and observations of court proceedings and law lectures, the book reflects on what is entailed in changing the language of the law. It reviews the implications of societal bilingualism for postcolonial justice systems, and raises an important question for language planners to consider: if the language of the law is changed, what else about the law changes?

Download or read book Creating Greater Malaysia written by Tai Yong Tan and published by Institute of Southeast Asian Studies. This book was released on 2008 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Malaysia came into existence on 9/16/63 as a federation of Malaya, Singapore, Sabah (North Borneo), and Sarawak; in 1965 Singapore withdrew from the federation. Offers an in-depth and detailed analysis of the political processes that led to formation of the Federation of Malaysia in 1963. It argues that the Malaysia that came into being following the amalgamation of Malaya, Singapore, Sarawak and North Borneo was a political creation whose only rationale was that it served a convergence of political and economic expediency for the departing colonial power, the Malayan leadership and the ruling party of self-governing Singapore. 'Greater Malaysia' was thus an artificial political entity, the outcome of a concatenation of interests and motives of a number of political actors in London and Southeast Asia from the 1950s to the early 1960s. This led to a number of unresolved compromises between Singapore and Kuala Lumpur and did not obviate the possibility of future difficulties, and the seeds of dissension sown by the disagreements between the two governments were to sprout into major crises during Singapore's brief history in the Federation of Malaysia.
