Moral and Spiritual Causes of Mental Health Problems
This article extends models that connect religion and spirituality (R/S) to the diagnosis and treatment of mental health problems to the Indonesian context, which is highly religious while being dominated by secular psychological approaches. It is based on findings from a qualitative study that analyzed writings and speeches of 30 influential leaders from three religions in Indonesia (Buddhism, Islam and Protestant Christianity). While leaders fr…
Geothermal Narratives and Grassroots Resistance in Indonesia
This article examines the narratives of green energy adopted by opponents of geothermal developments in Indonesia and how they incorporate those narratives into grassroots social movements. Debates about energy transitions are more than pragmatic policy discussions; they are based on concepts of human-nature relations. Decoloniality provides a lens to engage with the energy transition debate by 1) examining to what extent energy transitions reinf…
The Dynamics of Religion and Ecology in Indonesia
In the longstanding debate over the relationship between religion and ecology, there are two major camps.

Religion, Decolonization, and the Planetary Community
Introduction
Estimating timber supply elasticity of private forest landowners in the US South
How social movements use religious creativity to address environmental crises in Indonesian local communities
Between international donors and local faith communities
This paper explores the crucial part that faith-based organisations (FBOs) play in acting as intermediaries between international donors and local faith communities (LFCs) implementing humanitarian relief projects for Syrian refugees. Humanitarian responses to the mounting Syrian refugee crisis have coincided with greater collaboration between international donors and LFCs. This cooperation often is facilitated by a complex web of non-state inter…

Religious Literacy in Policy and Practice
This valuable book is the first to bring together theory and policy with analysis and expertise on practices in key areas of the public realm to explore what religious literacy is, why it is needed and what might be done about it. It makes the case for a public realm which is well equipped to engage with the plurality and pervasiveness of religion and belief, whatever the individual's own stance. It is aimed at academics, policy-makers and practi…
