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.
Pemikiran Islam di kanvas peradaban
In recent years, Islamic fundamentalist, revolutionary, and jihadist movements have overshadowed more moderate and reformist voices and trends within Islam. This compelling volume introduces the current generation of reformist thinkers and activists, the intellectual traditions they carry on, and the reasons for the failure of reformist movements to sustain broad support in the Islamic world today. Richly detailed regionally focused chapters cover Iran, the Arab East, the Maghreb, South Asia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Turkey, Europe, and North America. The editor's introductory chapter traces the roots of reformist thinking both in Islamic tradition and as a response to the challenge of modernity for Muslims struggling to reconcile the requirements of modernization with their cultural and religious values. The concluding chapter identifies commonalities, comparisons, and trends in the modernizing movements.
Politics in Indonesia describes the attitudes, aspirations and frustrations of the key players in Indonesian politics as they struggle to shape the future. The book focuses on the role of political Islam; Douglas E. Ramage shows that the state has been remarkably successful in maintaining secular political institutions in a predominantly Muslim society. He analyses the way in which political questions are framed with reference to the national ideology, the Pancasila.
Counter The twenty-five contributors to this volume - who include such influential thinkers as Jacques Derrida, Jean-Luc Nancy, Talal Asad, and James Siegel - confront the conceptual, analytical, and empirical difficulties involved in addressing the complex relationship between religion and media. The book's introductory section offers a prolegomenon to the multiple problems raised by an interdisciplinary approach to these multifaceted phenomena. The essays in the following part provide exemplary approaches to the historical and systematic background to the study of religion and media. The third part presents case studies by anthropologists and scholars of comparative religion. The book concludes with two remarkable documents: a chapter from Theodor W. Adorno's study of the relationship between religion and media in the context of political agitation (The Psychological Technique of Martin Luther Thomas's Radio Addresses) and a section from Niklas Luhmann's monumental Die Gesellschaft der Gesellschaft (Society as a Social System).
This volume maps the international academic debate on secularity. It places seminal contributions from within 'Western' academia alongside less well-known texts from various parts of the world; in several cases this is the first time that they have been translated into English. The volume demonstrates that the academic debate on secularity was and is a global debate, with contributions from many regions. The collected texts relate to each other either directly or indirectly by referring to similar arguments - whether reinforcing or criticising them - and thus create a discourse. When speaking of global secularity, we therefore do not insinuate a uniform 'world secularity' resulting from the ...
Encyclopedia of Nurcholish Madjid's thought on putting Islam religion in plural civilized and modern society in Indonesia.
What should be the place of Shari‘a—Islamic religious law—in predominantly Muslim societies of the world? In this ambitious and topical book, a Muslim scholar and human rights activist envisions a positive and sustainable role for Shari‘a, based on a profound rethinking of the relationship between religion and the secular state in all societies. An-Na‘im argues that the coercive enforcement of Shari‘a by the state betrays the Qur’an’s insistence on voluntary acceptance of Islam. Just as the state should be secure from the misuse of religious authority, Shari‘a should be freed from the control of the state. State policies or legislation must be based on civic reasons accessi...
