Abstract

This research attempts to investigate an intermingled relationship of political interest and religious issues, particularly in the Jakarta's Gubernatorial Issues in 2017. Basuki Tjahaya Purnama or Ahok, one of the governor candidate and also the former governor was accused of blasphemy issues after his speech in the Pramuka Island becomes viral. Although this case ended with a court, which ruled that he was guilty and received a sentence of 2 years in prison, this has become an unforgettable fact of Indonesian democracy. The proposed inquiry is how far religious issues influence political tension for based non-religion countries such as Indonesia. By using approach of hate Spin, within the combination of hate speech (vilification or offense-giving) and indignation of the offense-taking framework, this paper focuses on the entanglements of a political campaign and religious issues in the election period. This issue is significant for the reason that the tension of religious and political issues put both democracy and multiculturalism in Indonesia. Indeed, there is still a good opportunity for maintaining diversity through producing tolerance view, and enforcing the law for the actor of hate speech and hate spin.

Abstract

Regarding Southeast Asia as a multi-ethnics region, this paper attempts to examine about why Buddhist Community turns into religious violence against Rohingyas in the State of Rakhine (formerly known as Arakan).

This paper also discusses how the influence of history has constructed the government’s policy under military regime to exclude Rohingya.

Abstract

Saudi Arabia’s founders inherited a legacy of oil wealth and conservative Islamic ideas in the Islamic world. Conversely, the crown prince seemed uninterested in preserving the heritage and attempted to change the tradition. Mohammed bin Salman, the crown prince of Saudi Arabia, wishes to transform the state’s conservative identity into a more moderate one. A main reason for the transformation is that Saudi can compete with other countries globally in developing various sectors. The crown prince initiated Saudi Vision 2030, a policy to establish a competitive identity and transform Saudi image globally, but that is not easy for Saudi, which is the heartland of religious conservatism and is likely to resist adopting transformation. Based on the statement above, this research explains how the crown prince tried to transform Saudi Arabia’s identity and build a different reputation through Saudi Vision 2030 became a contradiction in the Saudi government and society. The transformation and reconstruction of nation branding through Saudi Vision that promotes openness probably could eliminate the image of Saudi identity as a devout Islamic conservative. At the same time, this effort is a way to survive as a global economic actor without depending on the non-renewable energy sector. Finally, this paper found that norms, social and political culture, Saudi Arabia’s reputation, and Salman’s image hinder the construction of that identity.
