Religion, Law and Intolerance in Indonesia
Angebote / Angebote:
Despite its overwhelmingly Muslim majority, Indonesia has always been seen as exceptional for its diversity and pluralism. In recent years, however, there has been a rise in "majoritarianism", with resurgent Islamist groups pushing hard to impose conservative values on public life. This book contains essays exploring these issues by prominent scholars, lawyers and activists from within Indonesia and beyond. Examining particular cases of intolerance and violence against minorities, it also provides an account of the responses offered by a weak state that seems often unwilling to intervene to protect vulnerable minorities against rising religious intolerance.
