The fluid realities of youth in postcolonial nation-states can reflect changing and challenging landscapes. Their engagements with environment, for example, are not only elaborated in social, political, and economical contexts, but also generated through values, beliefs, and identities. This article adds to contemporary debates by positing that discussions on postcolonial civic identities have to be accompanied by youth narratives and their considerations on nature, time, and digital world(s) by taking Malaysian youths as examples. Specifically, it attempts to theorize youth civic identity within postcolonial context(s) by scrutinizing personal narratives that are symbiotically yoked with discourses on ecology and technology. Through administering personal narratives at a suburban district in West Peninsular Malaysia, this paper opens 'windows' into what it means for youths to participate in civic projects. Reading these narratives from the lens of growth into citizenship, their wideranging experiences in civic affairs can be understood in four ways, namely, recognition, responsibilities, reconciliation, and reciprocity. Two of these emerging themes, recognition and responsibilities, will be discussed in this article. Our attempt at depicting postcolonial civic identity, therefore, is part of a large-scale investigation on civic mindedness that will compel us to reflect on unofficial, continuous accounts of youth reflecting on a sense of belongingness and what the future might bring.

“…The other two papers (a) discuss the emergence of the global television in the 80s of the 20th century (Dyreson, 2015) and (b) provide a very informative perspective from Malaysian scholars on the TV content and globalization (Idrus, Hashim, & Raihanah, 2016). Relying on qualitative research methods, the authors demonstrate that their TV viewer is concerned with the Westernimposed globalization but demonstrate "cultural hybridity."…”

“…Relying on qualitative research methods, the authors demonstrate that their TV viewer is concerned with the Westernimposed globalization but demonstrate "cultural hybridity." The influence of TV fiction is enormous, according to Idrus, Hashim, & Raihanah (2016), with respect to its influence on how these people create their understanding of violence, terrorism, war, and conflict.…”

There have been continuous debates on the influence of globalization and cultural interactions on the origins and spread of terrorism, Hence, there are numerous attempts to analyze the underlying causal mechanism between these concepts. Given the interdisciplinary nature of the already established body of knowledge, the paper provides a detailed review of the contemporary scholarship on such diverse concepts as "globalization," "culture," and "terrorism." The goal is to systemize the existing approaches used by researchers to analyze the interconnectedness of globalization, culture, and terrorism and present a holistic picture of the current state-of-the-art (which could be used to identify potentials for future research). Relying on the data available from the Scopus abstract and citation database, the paper covers the period from 1998 to 2019. First of all, the paper analyzed a number of quantitative indicators, such as an overall number of papers published, their document types, the leading countries in terms of the scholarly output, and the biggest subject areas. Second, the authors select a total of 40 research papers from the database and conduct a detailed review, the purpose of which is to present a holistic view on the key perspectives developed to analyze such concepts as "globalization," "culture," and "terrorism." The review clearly demonstrates that one could identify the total of five distinct perspectives in the contemporary scholarship: (1) "Postcolonialism," (2) "Religion and Identity Studies," (3) "Social Science Approaches," (4) "Education and Culture," and (5) "Popular Culture and Mass Media." The paper provides a summary of each approach, with a detailed account of the relevant papers. Thus, the review presents unique insights into how the current body of knowledge on the concepts "globalization," "culture," and "terrorism" is organized, highlighting the critical and well-established research avenues (at least how they are reflected in one of the leading abstract and citation database).

In Malaysia, a number of issues have transpired concerning the proliferation of TV fiction. Many of these complications include, but are not limited to concerns regarding feminism, patriarchy, economic imbalance, equity, power, social inequity, and religion. In this paper, we aim to locate TV fiction and Malay cultural identities across mediascape. Two primary objectives are central; firstly, this review embodies contextualization of TV fiction through examining some trajectories in which many popular TV fiction have been established. Secondly, this paper places Malay cultural identities in relation to the development and progress of mediascape. By examining these two central questions, we explore some of the many possibilities in which Malay cultural identities are explored, preserved, contested, and blurred in times of changing and challenging realities of Malaysian mediascape.
