<![CDATA[The emergence of social conflicts and violence rooted in religion as a justification has been a recurring issue throughout the history of violence up to the present day. Of course, social conflicts followed by religious-themed violence do not occur in Indonesia without reason, irrespective of several socio-political phenomena they may trigger.
