Dinamika relasi agama dan negara di dunia Islam secara masif menjadi perdebatan abadi, yakni menjadikan negara teokrasi berhadapan dengan negara sekuler. Pusaran ini menggiring bangsa Indonesia terlibat di dalam perdebatan. Meski demikian, pembentukan dasar konstitusi Indonesia pada akhirnya tidak mengadopsi pemisahan agama dan negara, atau sebaliknya. Adapun bentukan dasar konstitusi yang disepakati adalah mengantarkan pada gagasan substansial civil religion. Sebuah gagasan yang menempatkan makna general di dalam keberagamaan. Pemaknaan civil religion menemukan momentum pada saat kemerdekaan Indonesia yang menempatkan Pancasila sebagai dasar konstitusi setelah merevisi Piagam Jakarta. Sebagai konstitusi negara berdasarkan konsensus dan kompromi, dalam realitasnya terdapat ketegangan-ketegangan khususnya konflik antara agama yang inheren. Pemberontakan dan intrik-intrik politik berusaha untuk mengamandemem menjadi tak terelakkan. Pancasila sebagai padanan civil religion adalah sebagai norma bersama yang esensial dan transendental, mengandung semangat profetik setiap agama dan kepercayaan, untuk mempertahankan kesatuan nasional yang religius. Dengan Pancasila sebagai dasar negara menjadikan Indonesia tidak murni menjadi negara sekuler tidak juga menjadi negara Islam

Religion im Internet ist ein bisher kaum untersuchtes Phänomen. Dies gilt ohne Zweifel auch für den Bereich des Islams im Internet. In Einzelstudien und einem umfangreichen Katalog wird versucht, erste Ansätze zu formulieren, Theorien zum Verständnis dieses Phänomens zu entwickeln. Themen sind der Koran im Internet, Fatwas und die Minderheit der Submitters. Ziel ist es, über die Schlagworte vom "digital jihad" u.ä. hinauszugehen und den Islam im Internet als Teil des zeitgenössischen Islams zu begreifen. Wandlungen, die sich aus den benutzten Medien ergeben, sind dabei von besonderem Interesse. (DÜI-DOI)

Cuando la religión se convierte en parte integrante de los debates políticos modernos, las ideas religiosas influyen en las decisiones y definiciones de conceptos como la educación, la participación en el mercado laboral, la estructura y función de la familia como unidad social y la igualdad. La integración y la inmigración pasan a primer plano a medida que el concepto de ciudadanía adquiere dimensiones culturalistas y moralizantes. Finalmente, religión, política y educación se interfieren en las áreas de la vida que pertenecen a la esfera privada y pública. Desde nuestra perspectiva pedagógica, entendemos que las líneas educativas marcadas por la religión influyen notablemente en el devenir de muchos ciudadanos y se incrustan en el foro político-social. Así nos encontramos que la religión como poderoso instrumento de socialización ejerce una gran influencia intencionada en la educación y valores de los ciudadanos y se configura como el currículo social, normalmente oculto, del contexto próximo de muchos ciudadanos. La presencia del Islam y los musulmanes en Europa, aunque no es un fenómeno nuevo, es cuestionada por los Estados-nación confrontando el currículo oficial, la educación reglada, con el currículo social, muy influido por el Islam entre sus fieles. De esta manera se convierte en parte integrante de la lucha por la identidad nacional individual y colectiva, ya sea en lo referente al laicismo, la democracia o ciudadanía. Y en este sentido, queremos aportar una revisión actualizada de esta cuestión tan presente en Europa. ; When religion is converted in an integral part of modern political debates, religious ideas influence the decisions and definitions of concepts such as education, the participation in the labor market, the structure and function of the family as a social unit, and the equality. Integration and immigration come to the forefront as the concept of citizenship acquires culturalist and moralizing dimensions. Finally, religion, politics and education begin to interfere in the areas of life that belong to the private and public spheres. From our pedagogical perspective we understand that the educational lines marked by religion influence remarkably the future of many citizens, and attach themselves to the social-political realm. We thus become aware of the fact that religion as a powerful instrument of socialization exerts a strong influence upon citizens' education and values, and presents itself as the - normally hidden - social curriculum of the context closer to many citizens. The presence of Islam and of Muslims in Europe, though not a new phenomenon, is questioned by the nation-states, confronting the official curriculum and the regulated education, with the social curriculum, strongly influenced by Islam among its followers. It therefore converts itself in an integral part of the struggle for individual and collective national identity, be it with respect to laity, to democracy or to citizenship. And, in this sense, we would like to present an up-to-date review of this question so present in Europe today.

Zusammenfassung
Trotz vieler Gemeinsamkeiten kam und kommt es oft zu Konflikten zwischen den drei "Religionen des Buches" – Judentum, Christentum und Islam. Viele von ihnen machen sich an der Geschlechterordnung fest. Diese ist zwar symbolischer Art, wird aber von allen Seiten nicht nur als gottgegeben, sondern auch als "natürlich" betrachtet. Der Aufsatz versucht, den strukturellen Unterschieden zwischen den symbolischen Geschlechterordnungen in den drei Religionen des Buches nachzugehen und zeigt auf, dass das Verhältnis von Mann und Frau in jeder der drei Religionen nach ganz ähnlichen Muster konstruiert ist wie das jeweilige Verhältnis von Gott und Mensch. Diese Verhältnisse, so wird dargestellt, setzen sich fort im nicht-religiösen Leben und prägen das Verständnis von "Welt".

The aim of this article is to translate religious practices of Muslims in Kashmir in the backdrop of changing contexts of communication. This article attempts to look at the ways in which religion and media intersect in the spaces of political, social and cultural practices in the Muslim society of Kashmir. The article derives its basis from the close assessment of historical and ethnographic methods employed while studying the relationship between media and religion in Kashmir. To explore whether the transition from one mode of communication to another contributes in refiguring a distinctive religious practice, this article looks at media forms such as orality, manuscript tradition, printing technology, radio, television, cassettes and new media technologies in Kashmir. The article argues that it is not possible to fully understand either media or Islamic traditions in the region without making reference to each other. Islam and media in Kashmir have never been two separate realms and therefore Islam in Kashmir cannot be defined outside the forms and practices of mediation that define it.

"This book provides a pioneering and original study of the regional effects of political Islam. It sets out the multifaceted interactions between Islam and politics in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, focussing in particular on the so-called Islamic State (IS) organization in its broad discussion of political Islam. Utilizing a trans-disciplinary perspective, the book interacts with social constructivism and complex realism theories to analyse the clash between the modern notion of the state and that of identity in the region. Looking at issues such as the rise of IS and its attempts to establish a caliphate, the book offers three different, yet complementary, levels of analysis for its discussion. These being: Regional (dis)order, the erosion of state power and its boundaries, and the role of non-state actors in shaping the politics of the MENA region. Each of these levels are addressed in detail in turn in order to build a comprehensive picture of state and political Islam in the Arab core of the MENA region. What emerges is a comprehensive analysis of the interlinked relationships between political and Islamic elements of Arab polities and societies. As such, this book will be of great interest to academics and policymakers focusing on matters relating to the study of Islam, Islam and politics, study of religion more broadly, and security studies and area studies, particularly in the MENA region"--
