Religious extremism in Indonesia became a major security concern for Australia after the Bali bombing. Research thus focused on the networks of small and rather marginal Islamic radical groups such as Jemaah Islamiyah (JI), while the broader national and international trends that give rise to this and other, more moderate and popular new forms of religiosity remained unexplored. This emphasis on extremism contributed to a stereotyping of Islam as intransigent, and of multi-ethnic and multi-religious Indonesia as an Islamic nation. The current project will deliver a more balanced appraisal of the impact of resurging religiosity in our region by focusing on the pluralistic and relativistic religious attitudes more representative of Indonesian society today.

印尼的宗教极端主义在巴厘岛爆炸事件后成为澳大利亚的一个主要安全问题。因此，研究的重点是伊斯兰祈祷团（Jemaah Islamiyah，JI）等小型和相当边缘的伊斯兰激进团体的网络，而导致这种和其他更温和和流行的新宗教形式的更广泛的国家和国际趋势仍未得到探索。这种对极端主义的强调助长了对伊斯兰教的刻板印象，认为伊斯兰教是顽固不化的，并认为印度尼西亚是一个多民族和多宗教的伊斯兰国家。目前的项目将对宗教信仰在本区域的复兴所产生的影响进行更平衡的评估，重点是更能代表当今印度尼西亚社会的多元和相对主义宗教态度。
