Recensies en Artikelen

"Contrary to Islam in many other countries, Islam in Indonesia has always had the reputation of being moderate and tolerant. This timely book addresses the issue of this alleged special nature of Indonesian Islam from a theoretical perspective, and presents case studies which both confirm as well as contradict this liberal image, thus showing the complexity of Islam in this country with more than 200 million Muslim inhabitants." -- Dr. Nico J.G. Kaptein, Leiden Institute for Area Studies, Leiden University

Islam in Indonesia

Contrasting Images and Interpretations

De islam in Indonesië wordt vaak afgeschilderd als gematigd en tolerant en ten voorbeeld gesteld aan andere islamitische landen. Maar is dit beeld juist? Ook in Indonesië doen fundamentalistische groepen van zich spreken.
Islam in Indonesia gaat in op de specifieke manifestaties van de islam in Indonesië en de gevolgen daarvan voor de maatschappij en de politiek. Aan de orde komen onder andere salafistische organisaties, de voortrekkersrol van islamitische feministen en de discussies over erfrecht en echtscheiding.
