Islamism in Indonesia and Malaysia has undergone a fascinating
transformation from social movement roots to mainstream politics.
How did this take place, and to what ends? Drawing on social
movement theories, this Element explains this transformation by
focusing on key Islamic social movements in these two countries. It
argues: first, that the popularity and appeal of Islamism in
Indonesia and Malaysia cannot be understood without appreciating
how these social movements have enabled and facilitated
mobilization; and second, that it is precisely these roots in civil
societal mobilization that account for the enduring influence of
Islamist politics evident in how Islamic social movements have
shaped and transformed the political landscape. These arguments
will be developed by unpacking how Islamist ideas took root in
social movement settings, the kinds of institutional and
organizational structures through which these ideas were advanced,
and the changing political landscape that facilitated these
processes.
