Grassroots Muslim Majoritarianism: An Analysis of Salafi Islamic Expansion in Makassar & Its Socio-political Significance

Wednesday Forum – 19 October 2022

Over the past 30 years, Indonesia has witnessed the growing prominence of a number of transnational Islamic revivalist movements. These have had a considerable impact on political culture, as the popularity of these movements has gone hand-in-hand with increasingly sectarian views across segments of Indonesian society. Yet how do such movements successfully transmit their ideas at the grassroots level and present them in ways that influence national political opinion? Conversely, how does such grassroots activism alter the message and social aims of such activists? I aim to address these questions by focusing on the city of Makassar, South Sulawesi, and the activism of Indonesia’s largest Salafi-influenced organisation, Wahdah Islamiyah. Illuminating how Wahdah Islamiyah have grown their local network of mosques and schools, and the subtle practices they deploy to frame their Islamic message in ways that both relate to the anxieties of their audience, I explain how they promote a Muslim majoritarian vision of society. More broadly, I conclude by assessing the extent to which such activism can form an understandings pertaining to the socio-political mobilisation of religious social movements, and what it may tell us about the health of democratic debate and pluralism in 21st century Indonesia.

Chris Chaplin is Assistant Professorial Research Fellow in the Religion and Global Society Research Unit based at the London School of Economics and Political. Science (LSE). Chris is particularly interested in the affective geographies that define religious and non-religious encounters, and what these spatial dynamics may tell us about the creation of interconnected but diverse interpretations of plurality, and the emotive spiritual experiences behind them.

Have you ever been treated in a hospital with a di Have you ever been treated in a hospital with a different religious affiliation than what we believe in?

In an emergency, we often cannot choose where we will be treated. However, this "emergency" seems to be an entry point to get to know people who have different beliefs from us.

Berita kegagalan Indonesia menjadi tuan rumah Pial Berita kegagalan Indonesia menjadi tuan rumah Piala Dunia U-20 masih hangat di ruang media kita. Apa pun alasannya, "kekecewaan nasional" ini menunjukkan bahwa kultur sepak bola telah mengakar kuat di negeri ini. 

Di beberapa tempat di negara lain, sepak bola bukan sekadar mengakar sebagai kultur, melainkan sudah menghunjam menjadi kultus.

Pada tahun 2016 silam, Walt Disney Animation Studi Pada tahun 2016 silam, Walt Disney Animation Studios merilis "Zootopia", sebuah film animasi tentang peradaban hewan dan masalah kewargaan yang mereka alami. Di situ, hewan-hewan bertindak laiknya manusia bahkan memiliki sistem pemerintahan dan kewargaan yang tak kalah canggih. 

Tentu bukan peradaban utopis semacam itu yang dibayangkan oleh konsep kewargaan ekologis. Namun, keduanya punya persamaan: mengandaikan hewan, dan makhluk lain, sebagai bagian dari kesatuan warga negara; mengakui hak kewarganegaraan tidak sebatas manusia.

Simak tulisan menarik tentang kewargaan ekologis ini hanya di situs web crcs.
Religions and queer identities are often purported Religions and queer identities are often purportedly seen as antithetical to each other, impossible to reconcile, and harshly incompatible to be openly and mutually ‘holding hands’.

Yet in Indonesia, despite mainstream conservative attitude toward queer identities, queer-inclusive voices coming from faith leaders and queer activists are resisting and challenging the status quo.
