"The Dalā’il al-nāshid ‘an aḥkām al-walā’im fī-l-masājid (Arguments of the Seeker for Legal Judgements concerning Festive Meals in Mosques) is a short tract, written in 1938 in Malay in Arabic script by Yaḥyā b. ‘Uthmān b. ‘AbdAllāh, none other than a son of the renowned Batavian muftī Sayyid ‘Uthmān (1822-1914). Protesting against the (in his view) bid‘a (unauthorized religious innovation) of organizing festive meals in mosques, he felt it his duty to try to stop his co-religionists from doing wrong. Not being a theologian himself, his pamphlet is basically a tissue of quotations drawn from the prolific work of his well-known father."

"The Dutch colonial state categorized animists and ancestor-worshippers and inscribed them into written records in ways that have had long-term effects. The immediate post-independence period in Maluku, despite early political turmoil, settled down to a kind of stability under the New Order, the paradoxical outcome of which was both gradual integration of Nuaulu into a wider political and cultural consensus and conditions favouring economic change that undermined that consensus. The new policies of reformasi after 1998 presented further opportunities for Nuaulu to engage with the state in ways that promoted their interests. The opportunities were short-lived, however, given the implosive events of the communal unrest that lasted until 2001. This paper illustrates how this history has influenced Nuaulu self-perceptions and conceptualization of themselves as a separate people with a “religion” that goes beyond simply adherence to adat, and how this process has been partly driven by demography and a desire for pragmatic accommodation."

"Seren Taun is a ritual ceremony and celebration, which is practiced in West Java by the Sundanese. It is similar to Thanksgiving in many countries. The village Cigugur, located 3 km west of Kuningan, is the focus of the paper, because the Seren Taun celebration there has been a major event and received a lot of attention from the media, government, and scholars. Many non-Javanese traditional celebrations were repressed during the Suharto era and traditional beliefs were either also repressed or co-opted into one of the five official religions. During the post-Suharto era, the spirit of reformation has brought diversity of more than 300 ethnic groups onto the surface. With the aim to preserve and maintain the tradition of Seren Taun, but as well as to preserve the identity and collective memory of the community, Djatikusumah, chairman of PACKU, has in these recent years developed several policies, concerning traditional art performances, buildings/sites used for ceremonies, and the batik motives that were taken from woodcarvings in the Paseban hall. This paper will explore the intersection between the role of Djatikusumah as an agency and the culture industry he invented."

"This study is about the role of Salafi pesantren (Islamic boarding school) in Salafi da’wa (conveying or inviting to the way of Islam) in Indonesia. A Salafi pesantren is a pesantren that teaches Salafism which mostly derives from the works of Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Wahhab, the founder of Wahhabism in Saudi Arabia. Salafi pesantren started to emerge in the late 1980s and were established by graduates from Saudi Arabia and Yemen universities, and supported by alumni of the Institute for the Study of Islam and Arabic (LIPIA) in Jakarta. While the precise number of Salafi pesantren is unavailable, it is estimated that the number reaches 50 pesantren. Salafi pesantren not only teach their students about Salafism, but also accustom them to practice the Salafi manhaj (path) in their daily life. The study focuses on three pesantren: al-Nur al-Atsari in Ciamis, Assunah in Cirebon (both in West Java), and al-Furqan in Gresik, East Java. I analyse various aspects of these educational institutions: their historical development, community responses, educational programs, curriculum, methods of instruction, students’ lives and activities, networks and fundraising."

"Unique local transformations of the practice of established religions in Asia and the Pacific are juxtaposed with the emergence of new religious movements whose incidence is growing across the region. In Flows of Faith, the contributing authors take as their starting point questions of how religions manifest outside their cultural boundaries and provide the basis for new social identities, political movements and social transformations. With fresh insights into the globalization of beliefs, their local inflections, and their institutionalization, the authors explore how old and new religions work in different settings, and how their reception and membership challenge orthodox understandings of religion and culture.The chapters, set in Asia, the Pacific, Australia, and the US, illustrate the contrasts and commonalities of these belief systems, and their allegiances and networks in the region and beyond. They include new religious movements, Falun Gong, Brahma Kumaris, the Hare Krishna movement, based in East and South Asia with outreach posts in Australia and the U.S. and established ‘old’ religions, Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism and Islam."

"ABSTRAKDisertasi ini mengkaji bagaimana orang Umalulu, mengkonstruksi identitas budaya mereka berkaitan dengan keagamaannya dalam menghadapi proses pendiskriminasian di sekeliling mereka. Pemeluk agama Marapu menjadi terdiskriminasi bukan karena identitas budaya yang melekat padanya, akan tetapi akibat pencitraan negatif terhadapnya. Kategori diskriminatif dengan semua atribut dan peran yang melekat padanya bukanlah konstruk alamiah, melainkan suatu produk sejarah dan produk representasi.Kajian bertujuan mengungkapkan aspek-aspek yang berkaitan dengan representasi budaya dan masyarakat Umalulu, untuk memperoleh pemahaman tentang bagaimana orang Umalulu telah direpresentasikan oleh orang-orang lain, dan bagaimana mereka telah menampilkan diri mereka sendiri kepada dunia luar. Identitas budaya adalah sesuatu yang dikonstruksi, untuk mengungkapkannya dalam penelitian ini saya merujuk pada konsep identitas (identity) dari Erik H. Erikson, yang melihat identitas sebagai suatu proses restrukturasi segala identifikasi dan gambaran diri terdahulu, di mana seluruh identitas fragmenter yang dahulu diolah dalam perspektif suatu masa depan yang diantisipasi.Penelitian kualitatif yang dilakukan, meliputi penelitian kepustakaan dan lapangan. Pengumpulan data melalui wawancara dan pengamatan terlibat dengan satuan analisisnya adalah penduduk kecamatan Umalulu, kabupaten Sumba Timur, propinsi Nusa Tenggara Timur.Temuan penelitian memperlihatkan bahwa identitas budaya orang Umalulu merupakan hasil dari interaksi antara kekuatan-kekuatan dari ?luar? dengan praktek kehidupan yang dilandasi tatanan hidup mereka. Marapu adalah agama yang merupakan identitas budaya orang Umalulu, yang menjadi pedoman dasar atau nilai-nilai yang menata kehidupan mereka. Bagi orang Umalulu yang bukan pemeluk agama Marapu, ke-Marapu-an dianggap sebagai adat istiadat dari nenek moyang saja, dan bukan sebagai suatu keyakinan yang mereka peluk. Bagi orang Umalulu, beralih agama merupakan suatu kompromi, yaitu merupakan salah satu bentuk ?strategi perlindungan budaya? yang dapat meredam ketakutan dan agresi yang timbul di antara individu dan masyarakat. Budaya yang bersifat kompromistis ini diaktifkan melalui lembaga adat yang tetap selalu mengedepankan musyawarah dan memegang teguh konsep kebersamaan dan solidaritas.

ABSTRACTThis dissertation examines how the people of Umalulu construct their cultural identity associated with their religiosity to face discrimination process around them. Marapu religion to be discriminated not because of cultural identity attached to it, but due to their negative image. Discriminated category with all the attributes and roles attached to it is not a natural construct, but a product of history and product of representation.The study aims to reveal the aspects relating to the representation of Umalulu?s culture and society, to gain an understanding of how people of Umalulu been represented by others, and how they have represented themselves to the outside world. The point of view that considers cultural identity as something that is constructed, then to express it I refer to the Erik H. Erikson?s concept of identity, who see the identity as a process of restructuring all previous self-identification and description, where all the fragmented identity of the first processed with a view of the future anticipated.Conducted qualitative research, including literature and field research. Data collection through interviews and participant observation with the unit of analysis is the population of Umalulu district, East Sumba regency, Eastern Nusa Tenggara province.The research findings show that cultural identities of the Umalulu?s people are the result of the interaction between the forces of the "outside" the practice of life based on the order of their lives. Marapu is a religion which is the cultural identity of the person Umalulu, which became the basis of guidelines or values that organize their lives. Even for people who are not follow the Marapu religion, the Marapu's for those limited to the customs of ancestors only, and not as a faith they profess. For people of Umalulu, switching religion is a compromise, which is one form of "cultural protection strategy", which can reduce fear and aggression that arise between the individuals and society. The nature of this compromise culture is enabled through the traditional institutions that remain always puts deliberation and uphold the concept of togetherness and solidarity."
