Abstract

Objective: The dominance of Western civilization in various aspects of life, including politics, economics, and science, has created conditions in which Muslims experience an inferiority complex in the face of modern science. To overcome this, Muslim intellectuals initiated the concept of the Islamization of science as an effort to build a scientific system based on Islamic values. However, this idea has been criticized by several Muslim thinkers who consider that the Islamization of science approach tends to be ideological rather than methodological, and has the potential to create a dichotomy between Islam and global science. Theoretical Framework: The theoretical framework used in this study combines social psychology theories about inferiority complexes and Islamic educational theories that emphasize the importance of building knowledge through Islamic teachings without losing relevance in the global world. Literature Review: The literature reviewed in this study includes various works that discuss the Islamization of knowledge, critiques of the dominance of Western culture, and issues related to globalization and its impact on Muslim identity. Methods: This study uses a qualitative approach with a discourse analysis method to critically examine the various perspectives that have developed regarding the Islamization of science. The data sources used come from literature studies, including the works of Muslim thinkers such as Syed Naquib al-Attas and Ismail Raji' al-Faruqi, as well as criticism from academics who highlight the limitations of this approach. Results: The results of the study show that although the Islamization of science attempts to restore the intellectual superiority of Muslims, this approach faces serious challenges, such as the lack of a transparent methodology, limited implementation in higher education, and the possibility of academic isolation from the global scientific community. Implications: Therefore, this study offers an alternative, more integrative approach, namely the reconstruction of the Islamic scientific paradigm that not only maintains Islamic values but can contribute to universal scientific discourse without getting caught up in the Islam vs West dichotomy. Novelty: This study presents a novel critique of the Islamization of knowledge by addressing the inferiority complex among Muslims in the face of Western scientific dominance. Unlike prior ideological approaches, it proposes a methodological reconstruction of the Islamic scientific paradigm that integrates Islamic values with global discourse, avoiding the Islam-versus-West dichotomy.

Abstract

Objective: This study aims to analyze the strategic role of youth in driving national economic growth through innovation and cross-sector collaboration, and to examine the relevance and effectiveness of legal policies that support this role in the context of achieving the vision of Golden Indonesia 2045. Theoretical framework: This study uses an interdisciplinary approach that combines the theories of youth empowerment, innovation-driven economy, and the legal framework of national development. This approach strengthens the understanding of how national regulations, such as Law No. 40 of 2009 concerning Youth and Presidential Regulation No. 18 of 2020 concerning RPJMN 2020–2024, support the role of youth in economic growth. Literature review: Youth Innovation in Economic Development, Cross-Sector Collaboration by Youth, Legal Basis for Youth Empowerment. Methods: This study uses a descriptive qualitative method, literature study, and policy analysis techniques. Data sources were obtained from national legal documents, academic journals, BAPPENAS policy reports, and relevant youth innovation case studies. The analysis technique was carried out through the stages of data reduction, thematic categorization, and normative interpretation. Results: The study indicate that youth have great potential to create digital innovation, social entrepreneurship, and creative economy that have a direct impact on national economic growth. However, the implementation of legal policies that support youth innovation still faces challenges in terms of institutional synergy, legal assistance, and access to capital. Implications: These findings provide implications that policy reform and strengthening of youth-friendly legal governance need to be a strategic priority for the government to achieve the goal of Indonesia Emas 2045. The synergy between vocational education, the business world, and legal institutions is the key to successful cross-sector collaboration. Novelty: The uniqueness of this study lies in the integration of strategic analysis of youth innovation and legal approaches in one systematic framework, as well as an emphasis on the importance of legal, social, and economic collaboration in long-term development based on the youth generation.
