Description
Summary:As many of the youth in Malaysia have refused to register as voters, this research is meant to address the major issue in the field of political science regarding the engagement of students in politics, particularly in terms of elections. This research is about to reveal the perceptions of Malay students from the KIRKHS (Kuliyyah of Islamic Revealed Knowledge and Human Sciences) of IIUM (International Islamic University Malaysia) towards the election in Malaysia, since there is still a lack of information about the students' feelings about elections. The focus of the study is on the perceptions of KIRKHS IIUM students in relation to social, political, and religious factors that influenced their ways of looking at elections. This research will answer such research questions as “How do the students of KIRKHS at IIUM perceive elections in Malaysia?” with a theoretical framework of Political Socialization theory as a research guideline. 351 participating students chosen by random sampling will be given a set of questionnaires.
