Security, Democracy, and Society in Bali
This book focuses on how diverse developments are reflected in the rise of the security groups in Bali, Indonesia. Bali’s security groups pose many interesting questions. Why did they put up so many huge posters around the streets of southern Bali promoting themselves? Are their claims to represent the community plausible or are they “gangs”? How are they shaped by Indonesia’s violent past? How does Hinduism affect their gender politics? Do they promote illiberal populism or ethnic and religious tolerance? Does their central role in money politics prevent local democratization? Rather than write bottom-up history or bring the state back in, this collection as a whole draws on the ideas that circulate among leaders. These circulating ideas construct contemporary politics around both reinterpretations of old practices and responses to problems around tourism, gender, populism, religion, and democracy.
Religions and the Global Rise of Civilizational Populism
This books explores the rise of civilizational populism throughout the world, and its consequences. Civilizational populism posits that democracy ought to be based upon enacting the ‘people’s will’, yet it adds a new and troubling dimension to populism’s thin ideology: a civilization based classification of peoples and division of society. Today, we increasingly find not conflict between civilizations, but conflict within states over their civilizational identity. From Western Europe to Turkey, and from India and Pakistan to Indonesia, populists are increasingly employing a civilization based classification of peoples in order to define the identities of ‘the people’ and their perceived enemies. This book is the first to examine civilizational populism as global phenomenon rather than a uniquely Western form of politics. Through a series of case studies, the book examines the role played by religion in forming civilizational identities, but also investigates the often deleterious consequences of civilizational populism entering the political mainstream.

Civilizational Populism in Democratic Nation-States
This edited book examines the growing worldwide phenomenon of civilizational populism in democratic nation-states and brings together research that explores this in a wide variety of religious, political, and geographic contexts. In doing so, the book shows how, from Europe to India and Pakistan, and from Indonesia to the Americas, populists increasingly define national belonging through civilizational identity, claiming that the world can be divided into several religion-defined civilizations with incompatible values. The volume also discusses the complex relationship between civilizational populism, democracy and nationalism and shows how nationalists often use civilizational identity to help define ingroups and outgroups within their society. With this, the book investigates the salience of the concept, its widespread and influential nature, and also explains how populists construct civilizational identities, and the factors behind the rise of civilizational populism.

Sanih, Kamu Tidak Perawan!
Sejauh ingatan saya, kesukaan pada puisi dimulai saat SMA. Sebagaimana teman-teman lainnya, saya kagum akan bunyi dan isi puisi-puisi Chairil Anwar yang diajarkan di sekolah. Saat dibacakan terasa sangat musical dan sekaligus membangun angan tentang sesuatu yang muncul dari baris-baris puisi itu. Klise? Memang. Tapi entah bagaimana, itulah yang saya ingat tentang puisi-puisi pertama yang saya sukai. Membaca puisi Chairil seperti menikmati musik klasik. Saat menikmati musik klasik, saya membayangkan padang rumput di pedesaan Vienna seperti dalam film ñSound of Musicî, atau membayangkan suasana jalan-jalan di kota-kota di Eropa. Saat membaca puisi Chairil saya membayangkan seorang yang berpidato berapi-api. CerahBudayaIndonesia
