Abstract

Bookreview: M.C. Ricklefs, Islamisation and Its Opponents in Java: A Political, Social, and Religious History, c. 1930 to the Present (Singapore: NUS Press, 2012, xxi+575 halaman)This work of Ricklefs is the last in a trilogy and follows Mystic Synthesis in Java: A History of Islamisation from the Fourteenth to the Early Nineteenth Centuries (2006), and Polarising Javanese Society: Islamic and Other Visions c. 1830–1930 (2007). The three works comprehensively discuss the Islamization of Java since the 14th century. Observing the process and dynamics of Islamization in Javanese society during the centuries up until the contemporary era, Ricklefs concludes that Javanese Muslims have surpassed the difficult times of the early spread of Islam, the era of Dutch and Japanese colonialism, the messy government of Soekarno, the totalitarian government of Soeharto, and contemporary democratic period. Undergoing various changes, Javanese Muslims have become an outstanding example of increased Islamic religiosity. The three works dispute the assumption of many scholars that a large part of Javanese–Muslim society is abangan, or nominal, Muslim.DOI: 10.15408/sdi.v20i1.352

Abstract

Book Review: Carool Kersten, Cosmopolitans and Heretics: New Muslim Intellectuals and the Study of Islam, London: Hurst & Company, 2011, xvi+324 pages.This book is a very important contribution to the study of Islam in Southeast Asia, especially Indonesia, a country with the largest Muslims population in the world. The inclusion of Nucholish Madjid in this work on the intellectual dynamics in the Muslim world has a symbolic significance that cannot be avoided. Until the last two decades, Indonesia and Southeast Asia Islam are not seen by most of the Islamic scholars as integral part of Islam and Muslim world. Islam and Muslim in this area are considered peripheral to Islam and Arabic Muslim entities. In fact, this region is home to the largest part of Muslims in the world with its prominent dynamics. Kersten's decision to include Indonesian Muslim intellectual, Nurcholish Madjid, to his work is motivated by his urge to address the imbalance representation on the studies of contemporary Islam and Muslim world.DOI: 10.15408/sdi.v19i1.373

Abstract

What is meant by the term Research University? Essentially, a Research university is a university based upon a research tradition. The implications are broad, being that the university must have the capabilities and facilities to support the strengthening of this research tradition. In realizing these aspirations, there is a need to identify how prepared the university is to begin developments in the areas of academic, financial and administrative, institutional, and student affairs. This is necessary to obtain an objective evaluation of the actual capacity of the institution in the above four areas.DOI: 10.15408/sdi.v10i2.635

Abstract

The involvement of the ulama of the Indian Ocean region took at least two forms. Firstly, through their travelling or migrating to the Holy Cities of Mecca and Medina (the Haramayn). The author found that a great number of ulama and students from the Indian Ocean region came to and later settled in the Holy Cities to study and teach. Secondly, students who felt that they possessed sufficient knowledge returned to their place of origin in the Indian Ocean region, teaching and forming networks of ulama and students in their own area. As a consequence, through these two methods, there appeared a complex criss-crossing of networks of ulama in the Indian Ocean region and other areas of the Muslim world.DOI: 10.15408/sdi.v8i2.689

Abstract

In the last two decades, the Islamic world has witnessed something of an Islamic revival. Indonesian Muslims to a certain extent are likewise affected by the euphoria of Islamic revivalism; and there is much evidence to suggest that Islam, like other religions in Indonesia, is also experiencing a revival. As a result frequently since the end of the 1980s, Muslims have succeeded in influencing the making of government domestic policy for the interests of Islam and Muslims. For this reason, it is interesting to consider how Muslims' increasing pressure on the government affect the course of Indonesia's foreign policy, so far as Islamic issues are at stake. This paper attempts to delineate the "role", or more appropriately the position of Islam in Indonesia's foreign policy by taking into consideration several cases, involving Islam directly or indirectly.DOI: 10.15408/sdi.v7i3.701

Abstract

This journal not only directly influenced the spread of Islamic reformism through its own articles, but most importantly also stimulated the publication of similar journals printed in the Maiay-Indonesian world. This paper is an early attempt to delineate and discuss in a comprehensive manner the transmission of Islamic reformism to the Maiay-Indonesian world by means of journals: primarly al-Imam in Singapore and al-Munir in Padang, West Sumatra, and other journals that were published in the area.DOI: 10.15408/sdi.v6i3.723

Abstract

As stated by Abdurrahman Wahid in his introduction, the book under discussion is the first one written in English, not in the Indonesian language, that discusses the Nahdatul Ulama (NU). This is of course very surprising, since the NU is one of the largest Muslim organizations in Indonesia.DOI: 10.15408/sdi.v4i4.770

Abstract

In the last view years there have emerged some new tendencies in studying Muslim societies. One of the most important of these is the study of religio-cultural exchange among the various Muslim societies in the world. There is a little doubt that this kind of study is both interesting and challenging. It involves not only a form of comparative study of the Muslim societies have influenced each other in the course of history.DOI: 10.15408/sdi.v2i3.832

Abstract

The absence of in-depth study of the 'ulama Hadhrami archipelago, especially the period after the 18th century when people Hadhrami emigration reached its peak, is something surprising. Indeed, there are records of the 'ulama certain Hadhrami, but many do not provide adequate information. Note that usually only contains a very brief description and not the whole of the presence and role of 'Hadhrami scholars in the history of Islam in the archipelago.It is not surprising, because most of the main motivations arrival Hadhrami people to this part of the world are traded, and not spreading religion. In other words, the arrival of their much more motivated by a desire to improve the economic conditions and acquire wealth. So if some of them are then receive certain positions, such as qadi or imam, is more likely to be motivated by economic interests rather than the interests of religion wages.DOI: 10.15408/sdi.v2i2.833
