Islamic thought in Southeast Asia: New Interpretations and Movements
Recent years have witnessed a remarkable growth in scholarship on Islam within Southeast Asia. Underlying this scholarship is a desire to resolve pressing social and political problems facing Muslim communities, an awareness of the significance of pluralism and cultural hybridity within Southeast Asian societies, and the rapidly growing interaction between Southeast Asian Muslims and the outside world. The chapters in this book represent some of the exciting new directions young scholars in Southeast Asia universities are taking Islamic Studies. Themes covered include Islam and liberalism, the diverse streams of contemporary Islamic thought, “neo-Sufi” movements, Islam and human rights, the growing influence of Islamic law, Islam and democratic politics, Islamic education, and the relationship between Islam and ethnic identity.
Popular Movements and Democratization in the Islamic World
Kisaichi gives a timely and important book that develops a comparative view of Islam and democracy that goes beyond the usual stereotype of Islam being incompatible with democracy.
Environmental and Climate Change in South and Southeast Asia
Based on pioneering research, this volume on South and Southeast Asia offers a cultural studies' perspective on the vast and largely uncharted domain of how local cultures are coping with climate changes and environmental crises.The primary focus is on three countries that have high emission rates: India, Indonesia, and Thailand. Whereas the dominant discourse on climate largely reflects the view of Western cultures, this volume adds indigenous views and practices that provide insight into Hindu, Buddhist and Islamic responses. Making use of textual materials, fieldwork, and analyses, it highlights the close links between climate solutions, forms of knowledge, and the various socio-cultural and political practices and agencies within societies. The volume demonstrates that climate is global and plural. Contributors are: Monika Arnez, Somnath Batabyal, Joachim Betz, Susan M. Darlington, Dennis Eucker, Rüdiger Haum, Albertina Nugteren, Marcus Nüsser & Ravi Baghel, Martin Seeger, and Janice Stargardt.
THE CONSEQUENCES OF DISASTERS

Chapters have a wide global range across both democratic and transforming governance systems which spotlight the many different ways in which different political jurisdictions respond to the d...
Partai Politik dan Pemilu Serentak 2019: Kandidasi dan Koalisi
Pemilu 2019 untuk pertama kalinya diselenggarakan dengan skema serentak. Dalam skema ini, pemilihan anggota legislatif dan pemilihan presiden dan wakil presiden dilaksanakan dalam waktu bersamaan. Skema ini berbeda dengan skema pemilu-pemilu sebelumnya di era reformasi, yakni pemilihan legislatif pelaksanaannya mendahului pelaksanaan pemilu presiden dan wakil presiden. Dengan skema keserentakan, yang dicermati adalah bagaimana partai politik menyiapkan calon atau kandidatnya baik untuk pemilu legislatif maupun pemilu presiden. Bagi partai politik, untuk mendapatkan calon-calon yang akan diajukan dalam surat suara pemilu dilakukan melalui proses seleksi. Selain kandidasi, partai politik juga membangun koalisi untuk mengajukan calonnya dalam pemilihan presiden. Buku ini mengkaji mengenai kandidasi dan koalisi partai politik pada Pemilu Serentak 2019. Di dalamnya membahas sistem pemilu serentak, kandidasi untuk pemilihan legislatif tingkat pusat, kandidasi pemilihan presiden, dan koalisi partai politik.
The New Santri
Just like the Gutenberg revolution in the fifteenth century, which led to the emergence of non-conventional religious authority in the Christian world, the current information technology revolution, particularly through mediums such as Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and Twitter, has triggered the re-construction and decentralization of religious authority in Islam. New santri (pious individuals) and preachers emerged from the non-conventional religious educational system. They not only challenged the traditional authorities, but also redefine and re-conceptualize old religious terminologies, such as hijra and wasatiyya. This book explores the dynamics of religious authority in Indonesia with ...
Personalisasi Partai Politik di Indonesia Era Reformasi
Dengan hanya menyebutkan nama Megawati, Prabowo, Gus Dur, Amien Rais, dan Surya Paloh, tentu kita sudah dapat membayangkan partai-partai apa saja yang direpresentasikan oleh masing-masing elite tersebut. Pada era reformasi ini, justru identitas individu elite melekat pada partai politik dengan sangat kuat. Sosok ketua umum atau jabatan strategis lainnya tidak hanya menjadi pemimpin dan pengelola partai politik, tetapi lebih dari itu menjadi citra (image) partai politik. Hal ini sesungguhnya menandakan adanya gejala personalisasi politik pada partai-partai politik di Indonesia. Personalisasi partai politik tidak hanya berlangsung pada satu dua partai saja, tetapi dialami atau pernah menggejala hampir di semua partai berpengaruh di Indonesia dalam dua dekade terakhir. Mengapa partai-partai politik di Indonesia mengalaminya? Padahal, Undang-Undang Partai Politik kita telah dirancang sedemikian rupa agar partai politik menjadi institusi yang demokratis. Lalu apa dampak personalisasi partai terhadap sistem kepartaian dan demokrasi negara ini. Buku ini mengulas secara komperehensif sebab dan dampak dari terperangkapnya partai-partai pada kecenderungan personalisasi politik.
