This book studies the political and institutional project of Al-Qur’an dan Terjemahnya, the official translation of the Qurʾān into Indonesian by the Indonesian government. It investigates how the translation was produced and presented, and how it is read, as well as considering the implications of the state’s involvement in such a work. Lukman analyses the politicisation of the Qurʾān commentary through discussion of how the tafsīr mechanism functions in this version, weighing up the translation’s dual constraints: the growing political context, on the one hand, and the tafsīr tradition on the other. In doing so, the book pays attention to three key areas: the production phase, the textual material, and the reception of the translation by readers. This book will be of value to scholars with an interest in tafsīr studies, modern and Southeast Asian or Indonesian tafsīr sub-fields, the study of Qurʾān translations, and Indonesian politics and religion more broadly.

Basuki Tjahaja Purnama, pemimpin muda yang tangkas bicara. Ahok, begitu ia disapa, terbiasa bicara seterang matahari, blak-blakan, terkadang sedikit norak dan terkesan arogan. Sikapnya yang tegas, galak, dan ceplas-ceplos tak jarang membuat orang lain jengah, terusik, tersinggung, bahkan marah. Demi nilai yang diperjuangkan, tak sungkan Ahok melepas kontroversi. Ahok adalah pejabat dengan tekad kuat melawan korupsi dan apa pun yang bertentangan dengan Konstitusi. Ia terkadang kelewat nekat. Tak hanya besar nyali, urat takutnya pun seakan sudah putus. Ia sering berseteru dengan pejabat negara, anggota dewan, petinggi partai, sampai para konglomerat. “Jangan pernah membeli Ahok!” tegasnya, “Harga saya adalah nyawa saya.” Demi nilai yang ia junjung tinggi dan melawan korupsi, baginya kematian pun adalah keuntungan.

Pura Besakih is the paramount Hindu temple on Bali. Located high on the slopes of the volcano Mt Agung, it has developed over more than a thousand years into a great complex of 22 separate temples, the largest and central being Pura Penataran Agung. The annual cycle of more than seventy rituals, which symbolically link the temples into a whole, culminates in the centenary ceremony called Ekadasa Rudra (last held in 1979). The temple complex, state-supported at least since the fifteenth century, has undergone a series of architectural and ritual changes. This study combines an analysis of textual and historical sources with the fieldwork methods of anthropology in creating a unified interpretation of this great temple.
"This is a bold project recording the lives of a particular group of Southeast Asians. Most of the people whose biographies are included here have settled down in the ten countries that constitute the region. Each of them has either self-identified as Chinese or is comfortable to be known as someone of Chinese ancestry. There are also those who were born in China or elsewhere who came here to work and do business, including seeking help from others who have ethnic Chinese connections. With the political and economic conditions of the region in a great state of flux for the past two centuries, it is impossible to find consistency in the naming process. Confucius had stressed that correct name...

This book examines education transfer, specifically focusing on pedagogic transfer, and analyzes what happens when lesson study is introduced into foreign contextual settings. Lesson study, a professional development approach that originated in Japan 150 years ago, has been widely considered one of the best practices for collaborative professional development. There is an underlying assumption behind education transfer that when “best practice” is transferred to another country, it will generate a similar effect and improve schooling quality. Since pedagogic practice is socially constructed, the best practice in one setting may not be meaningful in another contextual setting. This book m...
