Abstract

The emergence of conservativism and populism, most specifically in Post-Suharto Indonesia, challenge the notion of “Indonesian Civil Islam” and the project of “rehermeneuticization of Islam” in Indonesia. The emergence of social media contributes to the increased participation of the citizens in effecting public policy, on the one hand, but on the other hand, it has an impact to the strengthening of conservativism, most specifically among millennial generation. It is worth remarking that conservative Muslims are active in social media, and accordingly considered as “new religious authorities”. They are outspoken in claiming that they are representing the Muslim community (al-ummah al-islamiyyah). Such propaganda and claim are quite attractive for many Muslims across the country, and consequently lead to the fragmentation of the Muslim community and Indonesian nation. The Indonesian Conference of Islam and Muslim Societies (ICONIS) will constitute a contribution in unravelling recent challenges and prospects of “Indonesian Civil Islam”. It is hoped that this conference not only contributes in purely theoretical domain, but also has significance in practical level, at least in providing policy recommendations for strengthening “Indonesian Civil Islam”. The ICONIS is one of leading programmes of the Postgraduate School of State Institute for Islamic for Islamic Studies (IAIN) Salatiga. Our postgraduate School and our university are concerned with the transformation from a teaching university to a research university. A research university mainly deals with knowledge production, knowledge sharing, and knowledge shopping. During the ICONIS, the scholars are involved in these three interrelated ventures. The scholars are concerned with “moving of bodies and ideas”. They have to be active, both physically and intellectually, so that they may pay a significant contribution for the scholarly world. The undertakings of the scholars will have an implication, not only for the accreditation of their respective university, but also the reputation of their university.
