Mobilizing Mainstream Islam: The Politics of Orthodoxy in Indonesia in Comparative Perspective

＂This book examines the transformation of Islam, nationalism, and democracy in Indonesia during the 2000s and 2010s. It analyzes how the construction of ＂Mainstream Islam＂ and an Islamist Conservative Majoritarian Synthesis reshaped national identity, deepened religious nationalism, and constrained democratic pluralism by bureaucratizing religion and marginalizing intra-Islamic diversity＂-- Provided by publisher.
