Summary: | Social Citizenship is a concept that is used to represent acceptance and identity
by the local community. This is a manifestation expressed in the form of space,
monument or buildings. Buildings such as mosques and other religious buildings
are a form of manifestation to such expression left for other generations to see
and study. This manifestation of citizenship through religious buildings can be an
expression of struggle, establishment, sense of belonging and local acceptance
towards achieving social citizenship. The understanding of this concept implicitly
shows that these elements are the driving forces behind the architecture that is
erected in order to find approval from the local population. This paper reviews
the employed research designs, methods and procedures in the process of
understanding the translation of social citizenship to architecture expressed by
mosques. The methods adopted were aimed toward obtaining archival/historical
evidence that can elicit proof of the concept. The methods also involved the
process of inquiry that would be the basis for discussion and to draw a conclusion
to the relationship between social citizenship and architecture. This paper also
highlights the strengths and limitations of the methodological techniques besides
spelling out the variables needed to prove the relationship |
