"Islamic revival" after 1950 and "Islamic fundamentalism" after the national elections of December 1995 have been regarded by the state elite and by scholars as a threat to the secular republic and an accidental, even pathological, phenomenon. The author argues that this approach is erroneous, because Islam is embedded in Turkish society, not only as a religious faith but also as a code of conduct. The republican history shows that it is impossible to undermine the Islamic social base. So the author concludes: "Turkey's political elite must learn to live with Islam. If Turkey really wants to be a democracy, it will do so successfully only with Islam, not by attempting to cast it off." (DÜI-Cls)

This book compares Islamic and Western political formulations, highlighting areas of agreement and disparity. Building on this analysis, the author goes on to show that political Islam offers a serious alternative to the dominant political system and ideology of the West. Sabet argues that rather than leading to a "Clash of Civlizations" or the assimilation of Islam into the Western system, a positive process of interactive self-reflection between Islam and liberal democracy is the best way forward. Beginning this process, Sabet highlights key concepts of Islamic political thought and brings them into dialogue with Western modernity. The resulting synthesis is essential reading for advanced undergraduate and graduate students of Islamic and Middle Eastern politics, political theory, comparative politics and international relations

For decades, scholars of Indonesia have rejected the religious claims of the Darul Islam movement, interpreting the antagonism between the Islamic state and Soekarno's republic as a fight for power, self-assertion, or land rights. Recently Kartosuwiryo and the Darul Islam have become heroic symbols of the local Islamist struggle, offering an alternative vision of this politician. The author looks beyond this dichotomy between rebel and martyr to unveil a 'third' dimension of Kartosuwiryo--a politician whose legacy has been shaping the role of Islam in Indonesian politics for over fifty years. In a blend of archival sources, printed material, and oral accounts, the author follows the career and ideology of Kartosuwiryo, nationalist leader of the Sarekat Islam party and later Imam of the Islamic State of Indonesia. Following the trajectory of a political activism that was consistently dedicated to the formation of an independent Indonesian state, the chapters delineate the gradual radicalization of the Islamic party and of Kartosuwiryo's own ideals from the 1920s until the 1950s. Focusing on the dialectic between the religious and secular anti-colonial movements, this book explores the failure of political Islam in the mid-1950s; the consolidation of the Pancasila state under Soekarno's and Suharto's regimes; the latter's attempt to co-opt what was left of the Darul Islam in the 1970s; and the re-emergence of political Islam and Kartosuwiryo's memory in the post-1998 era. A testament to the relevance of historical enquiry in understanding contemporary politics, Islam and the making of the nation guides the reader through the contingencies of the past that have led to the transformation of a nationalist leader into a 'separatist rebel' and a 'martyr', while at the same time shaping the public perception of political Islam and strengthening the position of the Pancasila in contemporary Indonesia.

And , the problem is almost always associated with Islam, although this sociologically Indonesia is predominantly Muslim. This study is a phenomenological study focused on the analysis of the description and explanation of the Indonesian democratic model in the perspective of the development of Islamic political thought with the aim to describe a model of democracy in Indonesia , and its implications for the development of Islamic political thought in Indonesia. This research was conducted using qualitative methods because of the symptoms studied are socio - political phenomenon that is dynamic .
