Islam dan Demokrasi di Malaysia: Hubungan Agama dan Negara yang Unik
Abstract: Some Malaysian
people has repudiated their country as an Islamic state. At the same time, the
other people, especially Muslims, asserted that Malaysia already is and ought
to be regarded such. The participation of Malaysia in Organization of the
Islamic Conference and the enactment of syari’ah in its law system has evident
in it self. From the discourse of Islamic politics, however, the Islamic state
is not a monolithic concept. Interestingly, after the Pakatan Rakyat won many
seats in parliament in 2008, politicians has paid attention on welfare state
issues, not Islamic state, as a common denominator between Islamic party and
secular party that has made a shared coalition to be an alternative from the
National Front.
