Comparing Religious Intolerance in Indonesia by Affiliations to Muslim Organizations / Hariyadi   Journal Article
Hariyadi Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Very few studies explicitly, let alone quantitatively, examine gaps in religious intolerance among individual Muslims based on affiliation with major Muslim organizations in Indonesia. Most existing studies either focus on a single organization (non-comparative), are at the organizational policy level (not examining individual attitudes), or use a limited number of samples in their analysis. Against this backdrop, this study compares Indonesian Muslims’ levels of religious intolerance based on their affiliation with Muslim organizations or traditions: Nahdlatul Ulama (NU), Muhammadiyah, and other organizations. We utilize a large-scale household survey, the 2014 Indonesia Family Life Survey-5, and run an ordinal logistic regression to identify organizations’ rank on the religious intolerance scale. We find that Muslims without any affiliation with a Muslim organization (some 18 percent of Indonesian Muslims) are the most tolerant. Against this reference group, we find that NU followers are generally the most tolerant, followed by those affiliated with Muhammadiyah, and those affiliated with other Muslim organizations. This finding adds a stock of knowledge to our understanding of religion and society, especially regarding interfaith relations in Indonesia and in the Muslim world in general. Methodologically, this study also shows the benefit and feasibility of identifying the dynamic of religious intolerance using a quantitative approach at a micro level.

Ranjan, Rakesh Journal Article

Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract A diaspora exists precisely because it remembers the 'homeland' without this memory this migrants and settlers would be simply people in a new setting, into which they merge, bringing little or nothing to the new home, accepting in various way and forms the mores and attitudes that already exists in their new country and society … The people of the Diaspora, however do not merely settle in new countries: they recreate in their socio-economic, political and cultural institutions a version of that homeland that they remember. (Reeves and Rai 2006: 17).
