| 520 | |a This study is about how the Malay youth construct their identity through the means of discourse. To realise the discursive formation of identity, the researcher used ‘interview’ as a means to elicit information. The texts of interviews produced by thirty subjects were analysed using the framework of critical discourse analysis (CDA), particularly ‘the discourse historical approach’ (Wodak 2001) within CDA. The researcher also used the ‘survey method’ by sending questionnaires to another threehundred-fifty individuals in order to realise the pattern in the formation of identity. The data gathered from questionnaire were analysed by using quantitative method, particularly, SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Science). The subjects chosen for this study were selected from the International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM). Malay identity was realised in this study in relation to global popular culture of Anglo-American origin. As such, the competence to interpret popular culture texts in English was a criterion used to exclude samples who are not English educated. The selected subjects were able to interpret popular texts (e.g., films, music and TV shows) satisfactorily. The samples chosen here, the researcher claims, do represent the Malay society rightly as they belong to this society. To realise the theoretical aspects of formation of identity in Malaysia and among the Malays another twenty-five intellectuals were interviewed. The discourse-data produced by these intellectuals provides the theoretical background to interpret identity as a product of discursive formation: it is ‘desired,’ ‘intended,’ ‘imagined’ and often ‘dictated’ by and for a community. Neither the youth nor the intellectuals interviewed in this study produced a homogeneous Malay identity. If it is difficult to produce a homogeneous identity one should not aim at ‘fixing’ the identity of a certain people once and for all. | ||
