Description
Summary:'Islam in Indonesia' maps the debates between progressive and reactionary Muslims in Indonesia since the regime change of 1998 and the start of a democratization process in the world's largest Muslim nation state. Conceived as an intellectual history or history of ideas, this text situates these debates in Indonesia's political context of the last fifteen years; it identifies and charts the genealogies of the different interlocutors; individual intellectuals and activists, institutions and outlets, which shape the discursive formations articulating the issues at hand.
