Islam Liberal in Indonesia: A New Beginning
By Redaksi
Goenawan Mohamad will talk about a trend in Moslem political and theological thinking in Indonesia that sets itself against more “fundamentalist” interpretations of the faith. It is a story about young Moslem intellectuals, many of them coming from traditional, rural-based Islamic backgrounds, fluent in Arabic and well-versed in theological and legal debates, who are currently active in promoting what they call “liberal Islam.” They disseminate their ideas via books, syndicated columns, radio talks, circulars, political activism, etc. The talk will also explore the link between their ideas and Indonesian pro-democracy movements before and after the fall of the military-backed Soeharto government.
