Abstract

This article examines the political relevance of Pancasila in the context of shifting political orientations among the younger generation in the digital era. The advancement of information technology has significantly reshaped patterns of political participation, the internalization of national values, and the ethical behavior of youth in digital spaces. Employing a qualitative descriptive method through a comprehensive literature review, this study draws from a wide range of academic sources to explore the evolving relationship between digitalization and civic identity. The findings suggest that while digital platforms offer new avenues for political engagement, they simultaneously pose critical challenges such as polarization, the spread of disinformation, and the erosion of Pancasila-based values. Strengthening the political relevance of Pancasila in the digital realm is therefore imperative for preserving national identity and moral integrity. This effort requires strategic synergy among families, educational institutions, government entities, and media platforms to instill Pancasila values in a contextual and meaningful manner for the digital-native generation. Ultimately, the study underscores Pancasila not merely as a constitutional foundation, but as a guiding ethical framework for nurturing responsible and dignified digital citizenship.
