| description | Tesis ini adalah satu kajian ilmiah tentang perkembangan politik semasa Berjaya memegang tampuk pemerintahan di negeri Sabah, dari tahun 1976-1985. Tesis ini bertujuan untuk memberi tumpuan kepada tema-tema yang dominan dalam
bidang kajian sains sosial mengenai Sabah. Tema-tema ini khususnya berhubungkait dengan isu-isu federalisme, ke-etnikan dan juga politik Pembangunan (developmentalisme). Secara amnya, tesis ini mencadangkan bahawa: Kemunculan
suatu wacana politik Pembangunan dalam pemerintahan Berjaya berasal-usul dari kegagalan Berjaya untuk menyelaraskan isu-isu politik tempatan berikutan dengan tuntutan-tuntutan daripada pemerintahan Pusat yang berkedudukan lebih kuat.
Kegagalan inilah yang menyebabkan Berjaya untuk mencari suatu strategi alternatif yang bertujuan untuk mengukuhkan sokongan dan juga kedudukan politiknya sendiri.
This thesis is a study of the political development of the Malaysian state of
Sabah under the administration of Parti Bersatu Rakyat Jelata Sabah (BERJA Y A -
Sabah People's United Party), which controlled the state legislature between 1976
and 1985. It attempts to disentangle the three dominant themes within social
scientific studies of Sabah: the issues of federalism, the politics of ethnicity, and the
political economy of development. The broad argument that the thesis makes can be
summarized thus: The emergence of a developmentalist discourse under the
BERJA YA regime in Sabah can largely be traced to its failure to reconcile the
localized ethnic politics of Sabah with the demands of a strong central state and thus
the need to find an alternative strategy of political support and control.
