There are more Muslims in Indonesia than in any other country, but most people outside the region know little about the nation, much less about the practice of Islam among its diverse peoples or the religion's influence on the politics of the republic. In this illuminating publication, Robert Pringle explains the advent of Islam in Indonesia, its development, and especially its contemporary circumstances. The author's incisive writing provides the necessary background and demystifies the spectrum of politically active Muslim groups in Indonesia today.

"Once celebrated in the Western media as a shining example of a 'liberal' and 'tolerant' Islam, Indonesia since the end of the Soeharto regime (May 1998) has witnessed a variety of developments that bespeak a conservative turn in the country's Muslim politics. In this timely collection of original essays, Martin van Bruinessen, our most distinguished senior Western scholar of Indonesian Islam, and four leading Indonesian Muslim scholars explore and explain these developments. Each chapter examines recent trends from a strategic institutional perch: the Council of Indonesian Muslim scholars, the reformist Muhammadiyah, South Sulawesi's Committee for the Implementation of Islamic Shari'a, and radical Islamism in Solo. With van Bruinessen's brilliantly synthetic introduction and conclusion, these essays shed a bright light on what Indonesian Muslim politics was and where it seems to be going. The analysis is complex and by no means uniformly dire. For readers interested in Indonesian Muslim politics, and for analysts interested in the dialectical interplay of progressive and conservative Islam, this book is fascinating and essential reading." -Robert Hefner, Director Institute on Culture, Religion, and World Affairs, Boston University

[This book is written in Dual Language: English & Mandarin] This book is a collection of researches from the Taiwan Studies Project research team of Bina Nusantara University. This book consists of three parts. First, the relationship between Indonesia and Taiwan in the context of the New Southbound Policy. This part describes the collaboration scheme of the Taiwanese government, industry and high school in Indonesia to improve human resource competencies by providing scholarships for economically disadvantaged Indonesian students to study in Taiwan. It also illustrates the obstacles faced in implementing the New Southbound Policy in Indonesia due to the language and culture constraints of Taiwan and Indonesia. Second part discusses about cross culture. Through cultural acculturation research, it is hoped that Indonesia and Taiwan will better acknowledge each other's culture and realize the similarities in culture, especially in the Potehi puppet show, which is still performed in Taiwan today by using Hokkien. Whereas, the Potehi puppet show in Indonesia already uses Indonesian regional languages besides Hokkien. Also, the influence of Chinese culture on Betawi Bridal Dress. This closeness in history and culture is expected to be the glue of Taiwan and Indonesia relations. Last, the third part illustrates the BINUS University lecturers' visitation to Taiwan. They visit several places and Indonesian young people who obtained a scholarship from university in Taiwan. From this visitation, readers will better understand the good intentions of the Taiwanese government to help the development of the Indonesian economy by providing opportunities for young Indonesians to become educated and trained personnel when they graduate from higher institutions.

Across the Muslim world, religion plays an increasingly prominent role in both the private and public lives of over a billion people. Observers of these changes struggle to understand the consequences of an Islamic resurgence in a democratizing world. Will democratic political participation by an increasingly religious population lead to victories by Islamists at the ballot box? Will more conspicuously pious Muslims participate in politics and markets in a fundamentally different way than they had previously? Will a renewed attention to Islam lead Muslim democracies to reevaluate their place in the global community of states, turning away from alignments with the West or the Global South and towards an Islamic civilizational identity? The answers to all of these questions depend, at least in part, on what ordinary Muslims think and do. In order to provide these answers, the authors of this book look to Indonesia--the world's largest Muslim country and one of the world's only consolidated Muslim democracies. They draw on original public opinion data to explore how religiosity and religious belief translate into political and economic behavior at the individual level. Across various issue areas--support for democracy or Islamic law, partisan politics, Islamic finance, views about foreign engagement--they find no evidence that the religious orientations of Indonesian Muslims have any systematic relationships with their political preferences or economic behavior. The broad conclusion is that scholars of Islam, in Indonesia and elsewhere, must understand religious life and individual piety as part of a larger and more complex set of social transformations. These transformations include modernization, economic development, and globalization, each of which has occurred in parallel with Islamic revivalism throughout the world. Against the common assumption that piety would naturally inhibit any tendencies towards modernity, democracy, or cosmopolitanism, Piety and Public Opinion reveals the complex and subtle links between religion and political beliefs in a critically important Muslim democracy.
