  • Social Education Through Digital Literacy Among
    Evi Fatimatur Rusydiyah DOI: 10.15642/JIIS.2020.14.1.210-247 SOCIAL EDUCATION THROUGH DIGITAL LITERACY AMONG INDONESIAN FEMALE MUSLIM ACTIVISTS The Experience of Abdurrahman Wahid’s Daughters Evi Fatimatur Rusydiyah | UIN Sunan Ampel Surabaya – Indonesia [email protected] Abstract: This article analyses the experience of Indonesian women Muslim activists in conducting social education through digital literacy. It focuses on Twitter as the media of digital literacy they actively employ. Responses to tweets are assessed with Anderson’s taxonomic indicators (namely remembering, understanding, applying, analyzing, evaluating, and creating) in order to know the cognitive level of society under the framework of social education. With regards to the notion of the Indonesian women Muslim activists, this article refers to four daughters of the late Abdurrahman Wahid, Alissa Qotrunnada, Zannuba Ariffah Chafsoh, Anita Hayatunnufus, and Inayah Wulandari, being known as social activists on religions, multiculturalism, equality, democracy, and human rights, particularly through their tweets. This paper argues that women Muslim activists play a key role in making use of digital media for leading the Indonesian Muslim community to become a critical society. Through the enhancement of the society’s cognitive level, it further argues, those women Muslim activists have skillfully developed digital literacy-based social education for people’s socio-political criticism. Keywords: Digital literacy, muslim society, social education, social media, muslim female figures Introduction Information and communication technology (ICT) continues to develop every year. It makes it easy for people, including the Indonesian Muslim society, to get the information they needed. Consequently, data and information have become a valuable commodity nowadays.

  • Opinionjournal - the WEEKEND INTERVIEW
    OpinionJournal - THE WEEKEND INTERVIEW http://www.opinionjournal.com/forms/printThis.html?id=110008016 PRINT WINDOW CLOSE WINDOW THE WEEKEND INTERVIEW Daughter of Islam An eloquent (and elegant) foe of Muslim fundamentalists. BY NANCY de WOLF SMITH Saturday, February 25, 2006 12:01 a.m. WASHINGTON--Yenny Wahid has a smile that could melt a Hershey bar at 100 yards. Her sunny disposition is all the more remarkable because Ms. Wahid is on what may be the world's most difficult mission right now: She's a prominent Muslim (and a woman at that) who speaks out against terror and the hijacking of her religion by ideologues who twist it to their own political ends. After 9/11, many Americans assume that the radical Islamic agenda is to destroy the U.S. The reality is that attacks on Western targets are designed to function as brutal propaganda coups that will attract recruits to the cause of violent revolution. The main goal of ideologues like Osama bin Laden is to topple the governments of Muslim countries, including, most famously, the Wahabi royal regime of Saudi Arabia. But the real strategic plum, Ms. Wahid says, would be her native Indonesia and its 220 million citizens--with the largest Muslim population on earth. "We are the ultimate target," she told me in Washington during a trip to the U.S. earlier this month. "The real battle for the hearts and minds of Muslims is happening in Indonesia, not anywhere else. And that's why the world should focus on Indonesia and help." Think of it as a potential domino whose fall would be felt far beyond Asia.

  • Fragmentation and Conflict Among Islamic Political
    Conflict among Islamist Political Parties in Indonesia FRAGMENTATION AND CONFLICT AMONG ISLAMIC POLITICAL PARTIES IN INDONESIA DURING REFORMASI ERA (1998-2009) Anatomy, Factors and Implications Sri Yunanto and Ahmad Fauzi Abdul Hamid Universiti Sains Malaysia, Penang - Malaysia Abstract: Since independence of the Republic of Indonesia, Muslims, as the majority population, have established diverse Islamic political parties. The nature of such parties has changed from the days of the Old Order to the New Order and Reformasi eras. Despite similar anatomies between Islamic parties of the Old Order and those of Reformasi, Islamic political parties profess different ideological missions. While the beginning of Old Order saw the confederation of Islamic political parties, Masyumi, seeking to promote the establishment of an Islamic State, none of the Islamic political parties which mushroomed during Reformasi era expressly struggled for the establishment of an Islamic state. However, the Islamic political parties had to weather similar problems of internal conflict and fragmentation. Different ideological strands, policy stances and leadership styles are believed to be amongst the pivotal root causes of their domestic troubles. With their popular votes and parliamentary seats significantly reduced, they prove to be no competition to the nationalist political parties. Keywords: Islamic political parties, reformasi era, conflict. Introduction Since the era of Dutch colonization, Islam in Indonesia has displayed the character of being not only a social movement but also a political force to be reckoned with. Series of armed resistence were campaigned by Muslims of the archipelago against the colonial masters. From the early of the twentieth century onward, the avenue of JOURNAL OF INDONESIAN ISLAM 337 Volume 07, Number 02, December 2013 Sri Yunanto and Ahmad Fauzi Abdul Hamid resistance of Muslims was not only manifested in armed-struggles against the colonial forces, but also in form of political parties.

    T he State a n d the Reactor: N uclear Politics in Post-Su h a r to In d o n e s ia 1 Sulfikar Amir2 Introduction Standing tall on Jepara's main street, the building was only halfway done when it was chosen as a venue to host an important gathering on a day in early September 2007. The owner of the building, the Jepara district branch of Nahdlatul Ulama (Pengurus Cabang Nahdlatul Ulama, PCNU), Indonesia's largest Islamic social organization, had only been able to place some decorations to embellish the unfinished three-story building. The urgency of this meeting PCNU was compelled to host had apparently prevented them from reserving a better place. A month of preparation had convinced PCNU's leaders that they would be able to act as mediators and facilitate a healthy dialogue between two conflicting groups that held opposing stances regarding Jakarta's plan to build nuclear power plants in the Muria Peninsula, about fifty kilometers from the PCNU headquarters. The presence of Minister of Research and Technology Kusmayanto Kadiman, who was invited to inaugurate the one-day meeting, pressured PCNU to ensure that everything was under control. Consequently, a battalion of security officers was deployed around the perimeter of the building, blocking off the front street to prevent uninvited guests from interrupting the proceedings. What occurred, it turned out, was not exactly what PCNU had anticipated. After a two-hour delay, Minister Kadiman, accompanied by the district 1 This paper stems from a manuscript written during my visiting fellowship at the East-West Center in Washington (Washington, DC).

In contrast to this logistical complexity, electoral competition revolves around a few central themes: the state of the economy, incumbent president Jokowi’s (Joko Widodo) record on infrastructure development, the role of Islam in politics, and the prospects for millennial voters who face the challenge of rapidly changing economic and technological circumstances.
