Law and Social Movements

The work of both socio-legal scholars and specialists working in social movements research continues to contribute to our understanding of how law relates to and informs the politics of social movements. In the 1990s, an important line of new research, most of it initiated by those working in the law and society tradition, began to bridge the gaps between these two areas of scholarship. This work includes new approaches to group legal mobilization politics; analysis of the judicial impact on social reform struggles; studies of individual legal mobilization in civil disputing and an almost entirely new area of research in cause lawyering. It brings together the best of this research introduced by a detailed essay by the editor.

Leadership and Social Movements

Despite the explosion of social movement research in Europe and the US in the last 20 years, the question of leadership has been relatively neglected. This probing examination of the theory and practice of social movement leadership critically re-examines a series of classic cases. The essays illuminate the complex dynamics and competing forms taken by social movement leadership as well as its impact on movement successes and failures.

Social Movements and Organization Theory

Although the fields of organization theory and social movement theory have long been viewed as belonging to different worlds, recent events have intervened, reminding us that organizations are becoming more movement-like - more volatile and politicized - while movements are more likely to borrow strategies from organizations. Organization theory and social movement theory are two of the most vibrant areas within the social sciences. This collection of original essays and studies both calls for a closer connection between these fields and demonstrates the value of this interchange. Three introductory, programmatic essays by leading scholars in the two fields are followed by eight empirical studies that directly illustrate the benefits of this type of cross-pollination. The studies variously examine the processes by which movements become organized and the role of movement processes within and among organizations. The topics covered range from globalization and transnational social movement organizations to community recycling programs.

Gerakan Buruh Indonesia

Gerakan buruh merupakan gerakan sosial tertua di Indonesia. Tetapi belum berhasil menempatkan kader-kadernya dalam pemerintahan, kecuali di era Soekarno. Gerakan keagamaan yang lebih muda usianya seperti Nahdlatul Ulama dan Muhammadiyah selalu berhasil menempatkan kadernya di pemerintahan bahkan menjadi presiden. Tidak disangsikan fragmentasi gerakan yang terus berlangsung dari masa ke masa telah menguras energi dan tidak bisa memanfaatkan momen-momen penting dalam transisi kekuasaan. Fragmentasi semacam ini di era Orde Baru selalu dialamatkan kepada besarnya campur tangan pemerintah. Tetapi setelah era demokrasi, fragmentasi tidak kunjung berhenti. Watak politik dari gerakan yang lekat sejak kelahirannya, kuatnya gerakan buruh berbasis agama, lemahnya gerakan buruh berbasis lapangan kerja, kekerasan dari kekuatan eksternal, lemah dalam membangun koalisi merupakan beberapa faktor yang mendorong fragmentasi. Meskipun disadari banyak faktor lain, seperti kekuatan eksternal tetapi lemahnya konsensus antar serikat membuat tantangan kolektif terutama terhadap kekuasaan tidak memiliki makna berarti. Dilihat dari jumlah, pada tahun 2019 ada 55,3 juta pekerja formal, suatu potensi suara yang sangat besar. PDIP sebagai pemenang pemilu 2019 hanya meraih suara 27,05 juta. Jika serikat buruh bersatu dan berhasil meyakinkan buruh, bukan mustahil kekuasaan dapat dipegang oleh buruh.

Reforms in Islamic Education

International Perspectives

In recent times, there has been intense global interest on and scrutiny of Islamic education. In reforming Islamic schools, what are the key actions initiated and are they contested or negotiated by and among Muslims? This edited collection brings together leading scholars to explore current reforms in Islamic schools. Drawing together international case studies, Reforms in Islamic Education critically discusses the reforms, considering the motivations for them, nature of them and perceptions and experiences of people affected by them. The contributors also explore the tensions, resistance, contestations and negotiations between Muslims and non-Muslims, and among Muslims, in relation to the reforms. Highlighting the need to understand and critique reforms in Islamic schools within broad historical, political and socio-cultural contexts, this book is a valuable resource for academics, policymakers and educators.

For example, in 2007, the MoE declared that students of Islamic education would only be admitted from Grade 7 onwards, that is, after the completion of their primary education. Based on this policy, the Ministry designed the curriculum ...

Islamic Education and Indoctrination

The Case in Indonesia

Islamic schools, especially madrasahs, have been viewed as sites of indoctrination for Muslim students and militants. Some educators and parents in the United States have also regarded introductory courses on Islam in some public schools as indoctrinatory. But what do we mean by "indoctrination"? And is Islamic education indoctrinatory? This book critically discusses the concept of indoctrination in the context of Islamic education. It explains that indoctrination occurs when a person holds to a type of beliefs known as control beliefs that result in ideological totalism. Using Indonesia as an illustrative case study, the book expounds on the conditions for an indoctrinatory tradition to exist and thrive. Examples include the Islamic school co-founded by Abu Bakar Ba’asyir and the militant organisation Jemaah Islamiyah. The book further proposes ways to counter and avoid indoctrination through formal, non-formal, and informal education. It argues for the creation and promotion of educative traditions that are underpinned by religious pluralism, strong rationality, and strong autonomy. Examples of such educative Muslim traditions in Indonesia will be highlighted. Combining philosophical inquiry with empirical research, this book is a timely contribution to the study of contemporary and often controversial issues in Islamic education.

Islamic Education in the Soviet Union and Its Successor States

This book provides a comparative history of Islamic education in the Soviet Union and the post-Soviet countries. Case studies on Ukraine, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and Tajikistan and on two regions of the Russian Federation, Tatarstan and Daghestan, highlight the importance which Muslim communities in all parts of the Soviet Union attached to their formal and informal institutions of Islamic instruction. New light is shed on the continuity of pre-revolutionary educational traditions – including Jadidist ethics and teaching methods – throughout the New Economic Policy period (1921-1928), on Muslim efforts to maintain their religious schools under Stalinist repression, and on the complete institutional breakdown of the Islamic educational sector by the late 1930s. A second focus of the book is on the remarkable boom of Islamic education in the post-Soviet republics after 1991. Contrary to general assumptions on the overwhelming influence of foreign missionary activities on this revival, this study stresses the primary role of the Soviet Islamic institutions which were developed during and after the Second World War, and of the persisting regional and even international networks of Islamic teachers and muftis. Throughout the book, special attention is paid to the specific regional traditions of Islamic learning and to the teachers’ affiliations with Islamic legal schools and Sufi brotherhoods. The book thus testifies to the astounding dynamics of Islamic education under rapidly changing and oftentimes extremely harsh political conditions.
