Abstract

ABSTRAK

Unsur tradisi yang terkandung dalam Perlembagaan Persekutuan Malaysia terdiri daripada agama persekutuan, bahasa kebangsaan, kedudukan istimewa bumiputera serta institusi Raja-raja. Menurut Dasar Perpaduan Negara 2021, penerimaan terhadap keempat-empat perkara tersebut adalah penting dalam pembentukan tapak integrasi bagi perpaduan. Justeru kajian ini meneroka anteseden yang dapat membawa kepada penerimaan unsur tradisi berdasarkan kepada kajian terdahulu sebagai panduan. Dalam hal ini, kaedah yang digunakan adalah dengan membangunkan cadangan kerangka kajian melibatkan kerangka teoretikal dan kerangka konseptual. Hasil kajian mendapati terdapat tiga anteseden yang dikenalpasti dapat membawa kepada penerimaan unsur tradisi iaitu pengetahuan, kefahaman dan kepercayaan. Selain itu, penerimaan unsur tradisi juga berperanan sebagai pengantara yang dapat membawa kepada penghayatan terhadap unsur tradisi yang termaktub dalam Perlembagaan Persekutuan. Sehubungan itu, kerangka kajian yang dicadangkan ini dapat diuji keabsahannya menerusi pelaksanaan kajian kuantitatif melibatkan kumpulan responden tertentu yang dipilih sebagai sampel kajian.

ABSTRACT

The elements of tradition contained in the Federal Constitution of Malaysia consist of the federal religion, the national language, the special position of the Bumiputera and the institution of the Rulers. According to the National Unity Policy 2021, acceptance of these four things is important in the formation of an integration site for unity. Therefore, this study explores the antecedents that can lead to the acceptance of traditional elements based on previous studies as a guide. In this case, the method used is to develop a proposed research framework involving a theoretical framework and a conceptual framework. The results of the study found that there are three antecedents that can lead to the acceptance of traditional elements, namely knowledge, understanding and belief. In addition, the acceptance of traditional elements also acts as a mediator that can lead to the appreciation of traditional elements enshrined in the Federal Constitution. In this regard, the validity of this proposed research framework can be tested through the implementation of a quantitative study involving a specific group of respondents selected as a study sample.
