State Institutions, Civic Associations, and Identity Demands
In a project of this ambition-covering almost twenty regions in eight countries-the thanks spread far and wide.We first want to thank the incountry experts and informants who made each of the individual chapters possible.As a community of scholars, we are constantly reminded that we are students of the citizens and cultures of the countries that we study.We express deep gratitude to them for allowing us access to their worlds and for imparting wi…
Opposing Power
East and Southeast Asia have witnessed historic and at times surprising regime transitions in recent decades. Opposing Power by Elvin Ong offers a timely, well designed, and empirically rich account to explore the various ways in which opposition alliances are forged to bring about such transitions. Under what conditions are opposition leaders able to work together to challenge powerful autocrats at the ballot box? His comparative and historical …
Cleavages and Electoral Support to Islamist Party in Javan Urban Areas
Several studies have noted that electoral support for one of the Islamist parties in Indonesia, the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS), is mostly concentrated in urban areas. While I agree with this observation, I found that these studies did not pay adequate attention to the diversity of socio-political conditions in urban areas that contributed to the varying electoral support for PKS. One of these socio-political conditions is what Lipset and Rokk…

The Political Origins of Islamic Courts in Divided Societies
The way in which Islamic courts and laws are developed and how religious legal apparatuses shape the relations between—and within—religious communities has been a common source of debate among scholars. This article analyzes the growing institutional power and authority of Islamic courts and judges in Malaysia since the late 1980s to contribute to this theoretical debate. Specifically, it compares two critical phases of institutional development …
Muslim Democracy
How can we explain poor progress in the transition and consolidation of democracy in the Muslim world? What has gone wrong with Muslim-majority societies? Could Islamic traditions be compatible with democratic principles, norms, and values? Questions such as these have stirred much debate and controversy among scholars, policy-makers, and the public in the past decade. Edward Schneier’s Muslim Democracy is an attempt to answer those hotly debated…
Indonesia in 2015
The new Indonesian president, Joko Widodo (“Jokowi”), has faced formidable challenges on a number of fronts in his first year in office. Although Jokowi has managed to roll out his pet projects for the poor, management of competing partisan and personal interests as well as the economy and religious conflict continues to be a challenge. Overall, the new government’s contribution to democratic reforms has been modest thus far
Contemporary Islamic Law in Indonesia
The introduction of sharia (Islamic law) in Indonesia after the regime transition in 1998 has attracted considerable scholarly and media attention. The special autonomous region of Aceh is an especially popular site for research because the region not only is known for its traditionally strong Islamic identity, but also is the only province that has attained a special autonomous status in the process of implementing sharia. Arskal Salim’s Contemp…

Indonesia in 2014
In 2014, Indonesia inaugurated as president the former Governor of Jakarta, Joko Widodo, or “Jokowi,” raising public expectations for reform especially among people outside the powerful political and business elite circles. It is uncertain to what extent, and how, the new government will achieve his reform agendas. Moreover, a relatively weak economy and declining civil liberties may pose an additional challenge, despite Jokowi’s avowed commitmen…
Conservative Turn? Religion, State and Conflict in Indonesia
Towards a More Democratic Regime and Society? The Politics of Faith and Ethnicity in a Transitional Multi-Ethnic Malaysia
The rising antagonistic attitudes and tension between the Malay majority and ethnic and religious minorities in Malaysia since 2007 is intriguing because it has occurred when society experienced an unprecedentedly large-scale and assertive multi-ethnic pro-democracy movement. This article argues that precisely these assertive and confident civil and political societies -and their emphasis on equal rights and equitable development for all Malaysia…
The Limits of Civil Society in Democratic Indonesia
Indonesian democracy has been challenged by rising religious intolerance and discriminatory attitudes in civil society since the mid-2000s, despite expanded freedom in many areas including the media. Why has Indonesian civil society been put on the defensive by radical and conservative Islamic elements in the context of democratic consolidation? What role has expanded freedoms and a flourishing of new media and information technologies played? Th…
Once a Muslim, Always a Muslim
It is commonly assumed that greater enforcement of Syariah [Islamic law] is the result of growing Islamism in civil society and/or the state. This article investigates the most burning political issue relating to the state enforcement of Syariah in contemporary Malaysia, that of apostasy. The author argues that it is the electoral imperative of the secular Muslim ruling elites, especially prime ministers, to cultivate broader support to achieve p…
The End of Political Islam? A Comparative Analysis of Religious Parties in the Muslim Democracy of Indonesia
Why do some religious parties survive after adopting a moderate ideological outlook while others do not? The rise and fall of religious parties since the onset of democratic transition in Indonesia has set off an intriguing debate over the role and future of political Islam in electoral politics. This article seeks to explain the diverging – and unexpected – trajectories of the two most prominent religious parties, the National Awakening Party (P…
Beyond faith and identity
There is a prevailing assumption amongst scholars and observers of Indonesian politics that there is a close link between religious identity and political identity. How valid is this socio-cultural identity model in explaining the party affiliation and political allegiance of increasingly pious Muslim youth to a political organization in the context of democratic consolidation? In particular, how valid is this assumption with consideration to con…
The Political Rise of the Prosperous Justice Party in Post-Authoritarian Indonesia
This article explains distinctive patterns of Islamist mobilization in Indonesia by focusing on the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS). It argues that the relatively solid party-mass relations and broad spatial penetration of PKS are conditioned by its organizational ability to deliver welfare services to strategically targeted constituencies to help construct a community base
Crises of Identity in PAS and Beyond
Controversies and frictions related to Islam since the political ascendancy of the opposition coalition, Pakatan Rakyat, after the 8 March 2008 general elections have revealed multiple crises of identity not only in PAS (Islamic Party of Malaysia) and Pakatan Rakyat, but also in broader Malaysian society. It is argued that the pattern of frictions within PAS and Pakatan Rakyat has to do with the diminishing place of Muslim-Malay identity and inte…
Islam and Nation Building in Southeast Asia
Since the onset of the financial crisis in 1997, political developments in the two largest Muslim-majority countries in Southeast Asia - Malaysia and Indonesia - have emphasized a recurrent theme that has lingered in both countries after independence: the uneasy relationship between Islam and nation building. It is, however, the markedly contrasting nation-building processes in the two neighboring countries that present a fundamental challenge to…
