Summary: | Contemporary Indonesian society is marked by a conservative turn among Muslims, both in the private and the public sphere that includes identity politics. This development has affected Christian-Muslim relations. In certain circles there is a growing sense of mutual alienation between the two communities. Yet this agonizing tension also begets an intense and concerted effort among mainstream Muslim organizations to push for a programmatic vision of an inclusive Islam within the framework of Indonesian nationalism as a platform for the common good. On their part, the Christian communities have also responded by developing more inclusive and contextual engagement with Muslims and other religious traditions through the framework of the common good and inclusive nationalism. |
