Indonesia Betrayed
Supporters of neoliberalism claim that free markets lead to economic growth, the creation of a middle class, and the establishment of democratically accountable governments. Critics point to a widening gap between rich and poor as countries compete to win foreign investment, and to the effects on the poor of neoliberal programs that restrict funding for health, education, and welfare. This book offers a ground-level view from Sumatra of the realities behind these debates during the final years of Suharto’s New Order and the beginning of a transition to more democratic government. The author’s wealth of primary data from ten years of interviews and local newspaper reportage (1994–2004) ...

Gender and Islam in Indonesian Cinema
This book presents a historical overview of the Indonesian film industry, the relationship between censorship and representation, and the rise of Islamic popular culture. It considers scholarship on gender in Indonesian cinema through the lens of power relations. With key themes such as nationalism, women's rights, polygamy, and terrorism which have preoccupied local filmmakers for decades, Indonesia cinema resonates with the socio-political changes and upheavals in Indonesia’s modern history and projects images of the nation through the debates on gender and Islam. The text also sheds light on broader debates and questions about contemporary Islam and gender construction in contemporary Indonesia. Offering cutting edge accounts of the production of Islamic cinema, this new book considers gendered dimensions of Islamic media creation which further enrich the representations of the 'religious' and the 'Islamic' in the everyday lives of Muslims in South East Asia.

Kontekstualisasi Pemikiran Cak Nur di Tengah Transformasi Indonesia Kini
Buku ini membahas pentingnya menghidupkan kembali gerakan pembaruan Islam di Indonesia setelah munculnya wacana konservatif. Setelah Nurcholish Madjid, para pembaru Islam mengusung dua agenda utama: kebebasan berpikir dan redefinisi fungsi agama. Nurcholish menyoroti isu-isu seperti sekularisasi, liberalisasi ajaran Islam, dan pentingnya mengadopsi ide-ide kemajuan. Ia menekankan kebebasan berpikir, mengkritik sikap kaku tokoh Islam terhadap perbedaan pendapat, dan mengangkat ide kemajuan. Buku ini juga menyoroti bahwa Indonesia memilih jalan tengah Pancasila setelah kemerdekaan, bukan negara berlandaskan Islam atau sekuler.
Indonesian Cinema after the New Order
In Indonesian Cinema after the New Order: Going Mainstream, Thomas Barker presents the first systematic and most comprehensive history of contemporary Indonesian cinema. The book focuses on a 20-year period of great upheaval from modest, indie beginnings, through mainstream appeal, to international recognition. More than a simple narrative, Barker contributes to cultural studies and sociological research by defining the three stages of an industry moving from state administration; through needing to succeed in local pop culture, specifically succeeding with Indonesian youth, to remain financially viable; until it finally realizes international recognition as an art form. This “going mainst...
