This empirically grounded work explores the emerging aspects of
cultural politics in the world's most populous Muslim nation. It
engages with complex issues of cultural translation, localization
and globalization from various perspectives through analyzing a
diverse range of cultural forms, including government or
palace-based celebrations, ceremonies and rituals, modern student
theatre, and Islamic revival sessions. With its discussion of both
old and new Islamic movements, alongside the contested religious
interpretations of public cultural events, this book will be of
interest not only to anthropologists, but also to scholars of
religion, culture and sociology.
