Abstract

The legitimisation of power through Islamic law in identity politics represents a fundamental paradox of Muslim political modernity, whereby divine norms intended to liberate humans ethically are instead rearticulated as a language of power that structures obedience, normalises the moral domination of the majority, and reduces citizenship to symbolic compliance. The purpose of this study is to comprehensively analyse the relationship between Islamic law, the legitimisation of power, and identity politics in the context of modern politics. This study uses a qualitative approach with a library research design integrated with legal-political discourse analysis. The results state that the legitimacy of power through Islamic law in identity politics is not merely an expression of collective piety, but a battleground that determines the direction of democracy, the limits of citizenship, and the future of pluralism. Sharia, which was originally understood as a religious normative guideline, can shift into a language of power that disciplines the body, regulates social space, and produces a moral hierarchy between more legitimate citizens and stigmatised citizens, so that piety changes from spiritual ethics into political capital that is traded in the market of support. The main problem is not sharia as a value, but rather the mechanism of instrumentalisation that turns religion into a tool of social control and covert moral majoritarianism. The constructive implication is that policy design must uphold religious aspirations without sacrificing civil rights, while also allowing for criticism so that the law does not become a tool of exclusion.

Abstract

Amidst the global euphoria surrounding the transition to a low-carbon economy, decarbonisation is in fact ushering in a new chapter in the politics of natural resources. This study aims to analyse the relationship between the global decarbonisation agenda and the politics of natural resource management in Indonesia, with a particular focus on its implications for the rights of indigenous peoples. This study employs a qualitative, critical case study design, given that the phenomenon is complex, contextual, and involves power relations that a purely quantitative approach cannot adequately explain. The findings confirm that decarbonisation not only brings about an energy transition but also creates new political arenas in the struggle for authority over territories and natural resources, where the state, the global market, and the carbon regime form a configuration of power that risks reproducing the logic of extractivism in a greener guise. The energy transition, which is normatively promoted as a solution to the climate crisis, risks creating an ecological-political paradox as strategic mineral projects, green industrial zones, and market-based carbon economies expand institutional control over forests and indigenous territories that have long served as the foundation for ecosystem sustainability. The conflict between climate mitigation and the sovereignty of indigenous communities is not an anomaly but a structural consequence of integrating nature into the logic of the carbon market and the industrialisation of clean energy.

Abstract

The protection of human life and dignity must transcend legal boundaries to encompass a universal and inescapable moral responsibility. This study aims to analyse in depth how the principles of maqāṣid al-sharīʿah can be articulated as a normative foundation for global humanitarian justice, and how this concept can be implemented in response to various contemporary humanitarian challenges. This study employs a qualitative approach with a conceptual–normative analytical design, combined to a limited extent with exploratory empirical research. The results indicate that positioning maqāṣid al-sharīʿah as a framework for global humanitarian justice not only represents an effort to reinterpret the Islamic legal tradition but also offers an epistemological contribution to enriching global ethical discourse, which has predominantly been shaped by secular and technocratic approaches. Focused on the public interest, the protection of human dignity and substantive justice, the maqāṣid al-sharīʿah present a normative perspective that is more holistic, contextual and centred on human needs, thereby having the potential to serve as an alternative ethical foundation for responding to various contemporary humanitarian challenges in a fairer, more inclusive and sustainable manner.

Abstract

This study analyses the use of moderate Islamic narratives as a strategy for political legitimisation in Indonesia. It aims to explain how political actors build legitimacy through moderate Islamic narratives and to identify the discursive strategies employed in this process. This study adopts a qualitative approach, using a critical case study design grounded in critical discourse analysis. The findings indicate that moderate Islamic narratives not only represent the values of tolerance, nationalism, and anti-extremism but can also function as political instruments to build public acceptance, strengthen the image of political actors, and manage contestations over religious identity. These narratives are ambivalent, as they can support social harmony while also potentially marginalising groups that do not conform to the dominant definition of moderation. The novelty of this study lies in its critical analysis of moderation as a discursive practice linked to legitimacy, power, and political communication. Consequently, the use of moderation narratives must be accompanied by policy commitments that are more inclusive, participatory, and sensitive to social justice, so that they do not remain mere political rhetoric.
