"This is an excellent and rare exploration of a sensitive religious issue from many perspectives _ legal, cultural and political. The case studies from Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand portray the important and exciting, yet very difficult, negotiation of Islamic teachings in the changing realities of Southeast Asia, home to the majority of Muslims in the world. Interreligious marriage is an important indicator of good relations between communities in religiously diverse countries. This book will also be of great interest to students and scholars of religious pluralism in a Southeast Asian context, which has not been studied adequately." - Zainal Abidin Bagir, Executive Director, ...

Pemikiran Islam Indonesia menghadapi tantangan yang berbeda dari era zaman Nurcholish Madjid, Harun Nasution, M. Dawam Rahardjo, Abdurrahman Wahid, Kuntowijoyo, Djohan Effendi atau Jalaluddin Rakhmat. Hal ini bisa diamati dari semakin redupnya pemikiran Islam di Indonesia saat ini. Terdapat banyak kritik dan gagasan baru yang menganggap pemikiran Islam telah “kabur”, atau tidak jelas dan spekulatif, bahkan era sekarang dianggap bukan lagi era agama, tapi telah memasuki era sains. Apakah pemikiran Islam masih relevan? Nurcholish Madjid adalah orang yang gelisah dengan tantangan terhadap pemikiran Islam pada tahun 1970-an. Sejak itu, ia terus mengembangkan pemikiran Islam sampai akhir hayatnya di tahun 2005. Kini banyak penerusnya juga mengalami kegelisahan; sebuah kegelisahan yang sama, namun dengan tantangan berbeda. Oleh karena itu, program beasiswa “Kader Pemikir Islam Indonesia” (Mencari Penerus Cak Nur) lahir sebagai langkah kaderisasi untuk membumikan kembali Pemikiran Islam Indonesia di masa depan.

In the 19th century, colonial rule brought the modern world closer to the Indonesian peoples, introducing mechanized transport, all-weather roads, postal and telegraph communications, and steamship networks that linked Indonesia's islands to each other, to Europe and the Middle East. This book looks at Indonesia's global importance, and traces the entwining of its peoples and economies with the wider world. The book discusses how products unique to Indonesia first slipped into regional trade networks and exposed scattered communities to the dynamic influence of far-off civilizations. It focuses on economic and cultural changes that resulted in the emergence of political units organized as oligarchies or monarchies, and goes on to look in detail at Indonesia's relationship with Holland's East Indies Company. The book analyses the attempts by politicians to negotiate ways of being modern but uniquely Indonesian, and considers the oscillations in Indonesia between movements for theocracy and democracy. It is a useful contribution for students and scholars of World History and Southeast Asian Studies.
Islam is a major religion in Southeast Asia, with Indonesian Muslims comprising the largest Muslim population in the world. Events and developments since 11 September 2001 have added greater attention to Islam and its adherents in this part of the world. This general survey of Islam in Southeast Asia is intended to inform, explain and update readers about the more significant aspects of Islam in Southeast Asia, then and now. These include the following: the geographical origins and sources by which the faith spread in this region; the social, economic and political profiles of the Muslim communities; relations between Muslims and non-Muslims and between Muslims and the State; the strands and...
Political Islam and Violence in Indonesia presents a penetrating new investigation of religious radicalism in the largest Muslim country in the world. Indonesia is a country long known for its diversity and tolerant brand of Islam. However, since the fall of Suharto, a more intolerant form of Islam has been growing, one whose adherents have carried out terrorist attacks, waged sectarian war, and voiced strident anti-Western rhetoric. Zachary Abuza’s unique analysis of radical Islam draws upon primary documents such as Jemaah Islamiyah’s operations manual, interviews, and recorded testimonies of politicians, religious figures, and known militants, as well as personal interviews with numerous security and intelligence experts in Indonesia and elsewhere, to paint a picture at once guardedly optimistic about the future of Indonesian democracy and concerned about the increasing role of conservative and radical Islam in Indonesian society. This book will be of great interest to students of Indonesian politics, Asian studies, political violence and security studies in general.
