This edited volume argues that the rise of Islamic conservatism
poses challenges to Indonesia's continued existence as a secular
state, with far-reaching implications for the social, cultural and
political fortunes of the country. It contributes a model of
analysis in the field of Indonesian and Islamic studies on the
logic of Islamic conservative activism in Indonesia. This volume
presents informative case studies of discourses and expressions of
Islamic conservatism expressed by leading mainstream and upcoming
Indonesian Islamic groups and interpret them in a nuanced
perspective. All volume contributors are Indonesian-based Islamic
Studies scholars with in-depth expertise on the Islamic groups they
have studied closely for years, if not decades. This book is an
up-to-date study addressing contemporary Indonesian politics that
should be read by Islamic Studies, Indonesian Studies, and more
broadly Southeast Asian Studies specialists. It is also a useful
reference for those studying Religion and Politics, and Comparative
Politics.
