Ahmad-Norma Permata Muslim Insurgencies in Southeast Asia: Intractability, the Security Dilemma, and "Islamic Factor" Abstraksi: Danasa ini, konflik-konflik sosial-politik di Asia Tenggara kerap kali dipahami relatif terlepas darai faktor agama (Islam). Sikap ini terutama berkembang di lingkungan elit politik pemerintahan beberapa negara Asia Tenggara yang memiliki pengalaman konflik di wilayan mas- ing-masing. Sikap ini didasarkan pada sejumlah alasan: pertama, faktor agama akan menjerat negarapadaperdebatan isu-isu teologis dan ini cuk- up sensitif;kedua, faktor agnma (Islam) akan menimbulkan sentimen glo- bal masyarakat Muslim di dunia, Artiklel ini memberikan gambaran berbeda dari kalangan elit politik pemerintahan terhadap konflik yang terjadi di Asia Tenggara. Penulis melihat bahws propaganda politis untuk menghindari simbol agama se- b agai b agian dar i konflik memiliki alasan p enting. F akt or I slam tetap dom- inan dalam masalah konflik Asia Tenggara, di samping faktor-faktor lain yang bersifut politik dsn ekonomi, Islam misalnya memberikan peluang cukup penting dalam konflik; Islam memperkuat ideologi politik keagam- aan sebagai legitimasi pemberontaknn, di samping juga menjadi bahasa yang efektif untuk mobilisasi masa sebagai bagian dari jihad. Dalam hal terakhir ini, Islam telah menjadi komunitas global dengan konsep ummat, sehingga terhubungkan secar a transnational. KonJlik di Asia Tenggara berkaitan erat dengan konteks regional, sos- ial-b u day a d an kon st eI asi p oI i t ik kene gar a an. D i P hil ip in a, konfl ik b ermu - Iaberkaitan erat denganpersaingan misi agama (Islam dan Kristen) pasca abad ke-13. Diskriminasi negara terhadap kelompok minoritas Muslim menjadi lebih kentara ketika menyebut mereka sebagai Moro, artinya iden- tik dengan kelompok Islam yang dulu menduduki Spanyol. Dari sanakth 241 Studia Islamika, VoL1.3, No. 2.2005 242 Ahmad-NormaPermata konflik terus berkecamuk. Agama dan identitas etnik bahkan menempati bagian penting dari konflik itu. Pemberontakan oleh Muslim minoritas di Mindanao, Philiphina Selatan, misalny a, lebih karena dip erlakukan tidak adil dalam kehidupan ekonomi dan politik, walaupun ada unsur agama yang ikut berperan. Berbeda dengan Moro di Philipina, pemberontakan Aceh di Indonesia hingga awal tahun 2004 lebih dipengaruhi faktor ekonomi dan politik. Ralcyat Aceh secsra ekonomi tidak mendapatkan bagian hasil alam yang seimbnng karena dominasi kEentingan politik lakarta, Permasalahan kon- flik di Aceh hampir tidak terkait dengan agamn. Serupa dengan Philipina,konflik diThsiland dan Myanmat menampil' kan Islsm sebagai bagian yang tidak bisa dipisahkan dari masalah konflik. Sebagai komunitas minoritas di Thailsnd selatan, kelompok Muslim merasa diperlakukan tidak adil, setelah ter jadi pembagian wilayah teritorial pascn- penjajahan Inggris. Semenntara di Myanmar, komunitas Arakan-mny' oritas bergama Islam-menjadi kelompok minoritas yang diperlakukan se- cara diskriminatif oleh pemerintah. Karena itu, konflik dan pemberonta- kan dengan kekuatan militer sering muncul sebagai ekspresi ketidakpua- saanmasyarakat. Di samping persaingan agama dan politik, faktor global juga telah memberikan warna tersendiri terhadap konflik dan pemberontakan do Asia Tenggara. Ada empat hal dari peristiwa global yang mempengaruhi kon- lik: pertama berrmula dari kolonialisme, kemudian perang dunia ke-II dan ketiga karena masa perang dingin antara Amerika dan Uni Soaiet dan t er akhir a dal ah kasus p er an g m el aw an t er or ism e. HaI menarik daripengaruh global terhadap pemberontakan adalahfak- tor terorisme. Ia tidak saja menjadi bagian dari pemberontakan di Asia Tenggara tetapi juga telah meniadi propaganda utams Barat dalsm menS' hadapi kelompok lslam garis keras. Bahkan bagi para analis politik, Asia Tenggara telah menjadi areno perang bagi nl-Qaeda dan Amerika. Faktor ngama telah menjadi simbol penting menumbuhkan kesadaran kelompok Muslim tertentu dengan jargon jihad fi sabilillah (jihad di jalan Allah). Dengan demikian, dari pembahasan artikel ini, pemberontakan-pem- berontakan di Asia Tenggara memiliki berbagai dimensi, mulai dari per- masalnhan politikkeamanan, kepentingan ekonomi sampai pada faktor Is- lam. l..lntuk itu, konflik-konflik politik di Asia Tenggara dezasss ini- ber ikut perkemb angan-p erkembangan p olitik secara utnLtm--4nensy ar at- kan secara mutlak pentingnyn mempertimbangknn faktor agama.

This region is well known for the early history of Islamic education in Indonesia. This is a qualitative study where the data were gathered through observation, interview, focus group discussion, and documentation in eleven pesantrens in the province of West Sumatra. This study reveals three main characters of the Islamic boarding schools, namely institutional system, curriculum and learning system and typology. Institutionally, Islamic boarding schools is under the auspices of a foundation. However, leadership and regeneration are still closely linked to the family of the pesantren founders. The curriculum and learning system are integrated from general/state school curriculum, classical pesantren curriculum, and modern Islamic school curriculum. Various classical-medieval literature in Islamic studies, commonly known as kitab kuning, are to a great extent also still used, especially in the institutions that only run traditional Islamic boarding schools (pesantren salaf).

    Imagining an Islamic State in Indonesia: From Darul Islam TO JEMAAH ISLAMIYAH Sometime in September 1962, S. M. Kartosoewirjo,* 1 the leader of a once formidable insurgency that had proclaimed an Islamic State of Indonesia (Negara Islam Indonesia, Nil), was executed by a firing squad of the Indonesian Republic. This act has been recorded as the beginning of the end of the Islamic State and its so-called Darul Islam (Abode of Islam) rebellion.2 Forty years later, however, a young man called Iqbal wrote the following before he blew himself up along with hundreds of others at the Sari Club in Bali on October 12, 2002: Today I say: that I am a child of DI/NII [Darul Islam/Negara Islam Indonesia] who is ready to sacrifice myself for Islam. Remember, o mujahideen of Malingping,3 how our imam, S. M. Kartosuwirjo, built and upheld and proclaimed the independence of the Islamic State of Indonesia with the blood and lives of martyrs, not by relaxing and fooling around the way we do today.

  • Mohammad Natsir (1948) in M E M O R Ia M : M O H a M M a D N a T S Ir (1907- 1993)
    Mohammad Natsir (1948) In M e m o r ia m : M o h a m m a d N a t s ir (1907- 1993) George McT. Kahin On February 6,1993 Mohammad Natsir died in Jakarta at the age of 84. Last of the giants among Indonesia's nationalist and revolutionary political leaders, he undoubtedly had more influence on the course of Islamic thought and politics in postwar Indonesia than any of his contemporaries. By nature extraordinarily modest and unpretentious, he had a well deserved reputation for personal integrity and political probity. He always lived sim­ ply with respect to house and attire, even in 1950 as prime minister. (When I first met him in 1948 and he was the Republic's minister of information, I found a man in what was surely the most mended shirt of any official in Yogyakarta; it was his only shirt, and the staff of his office a few weeks later pooled their resources to get him a new one in order, they told me, that their boss would look like "a real minister.") Bom of Minangkabau parents in the West Sumatran town of Alahan Panjang ( some 30 miles south of Solok) on July 17,1908, Natsir grew up in what he remembered to be a very religious area. It was also agriculturally prosperous—in contrast, he recalled, to the impov­ erished nearby Silungkung district which was a center of the Communist uprising of 1927. His father was a clerk in a government office in Alahan Panjang who had graduated from an Indonesian language primary school and did not know Dutch (HIS schools had not yet been established in the area).

  • Day Three: Ap Essay Writing
    DAY THREE: WRITING ESSAYS ADVANCED PLACEMENT WORLD HISTORY 5 DAY SUMMER CONFERENCE – DAY THREE 166 DAY THREE: AP ESSAY WRITING At the heart of most Advanced Placement courses is the essay or short response, free writing portion. This is true of AP social studies courses, all of which have writing portions. In AP World History as with all other AP social studies classes, the essays constitute fifty percent of the final score a student earns. One critical point to keep in mind is that if a student scores a three or higher on the multiple choice portion of the test but earns a two or less on the composite essay portion, he or she cannot receive a score of three or higher. The reverse however is not true. A student who scores three or higher on the essay portion but two or less on the multiple choice section, can receive at least a three out of five points for his or her AP score. Most colleges will award some credit for threes and higher. As a measure of academic abilities, there are few things more useful than an essay. College admissions officials constant acknowledge the weight and important of student essays in the admissions process. Colleges and universities to whom students send their AP scores may request to read a student’s AP essays. Often essays alone can make a difference in admissions or rejection on a college application. Consequently, the AP World History class – as well as all AP Social Studies and English Language and Literature classes – must devote a significant portion of the class to writing.

  • The Conflict in Aceh Here Are Diverging Accounts of the Primary Causes of Aceh’S Contemporary Conflict
    An Acehnese boy watches a tank make its way through his village in Samalanga, Aceh, 2003. Source: Reuters/Supri Supri The conflict in Aceh here are diverging accounts of the primary causes of Aceh’s contemporary conflict. This T article charts causal factors and antecedents to context, precursors the contemporary conflict during the colonial period of Acehnese history and the early decades of and catalysts independence, before considering the immediate causes mediating the emergence of Free Aceh Movement (GAM) in the 1970s. Finally the processes unleashed by Aceh’s transformation into a ‘Military Operations Area’ (DOM) and the subsequent Michelle Ann Miller democratic breakthrough of 1998 are considered in terms of how the context for addressing the conflict in Aceh was transformed. Legacies of colonialism The narrative of colonial domination has been central to the interpretation of the conflict promoted by GAM, widely accepted in Aceh but rejected by most other Indonesian and foreign sources. In GAM’s view the conflict stemmed from the 1873 Dutch invasion of the ‘State of Acheh-Sumatra’, and was perpetuated by the ‘illegal transfer of sovereignty’ in 1949 from the ‘old, Dutch colonialists to the new, Javanese colonialists.’ GAM justified its claim to territorial sovereignty through the construct of a singular Acehnese national identity based on ethnicity, language, culture, history and geography. This narrative of outsiders’ repeated attempts at subjugation of a singular Acehnese nation is debatable. It is true that a distinctive Acehnese identity linked to sovereign statehood had existed for four centuries prior to Aceh’s incorporation into Indonesia. Aceh’s strategic location along the Malacca Straits trading route also led to the development of a Malay-Islamic written and cultural tradition, setting the Acehnese apart from Michelle Ann Miller is a postdoctoral many other ethnic groups in the archipelago closer fellow at the Asia Research Institute, at geographically to the island of Java.
