Preaching Islam: politics, performers and publics in Indonesia.

印尼穆斯林举行的大规模布道集会可以吸引多达20万人，印尼的政治选区，包括主流和边缘，都利用这些集会来推进他们的目标。了解政治团体如何利用宗教来促进他们的利益，将增加澳大利亚对当代印度尼西亚伊斯兰教政治层面的认识。政治化的说教对印尼的内部安全和政治稳定产生了影响；这项研究将通过关注在敏感的政治环境中上演的演讲来增加澳大利亚对这一关键主题的了解：农村社区，城市穷人和军营。

Mass preaching gatherings held by Indonesia's Muslims can draw crowds of up to two hundred thousand people, and are used by Indonesia's political constituencies, mainstream and fringe, to further their goals. An understanding of how political groupings utilise orations to further their interests will add to Australia's awareness of the political dimensions of Islam in contemporary Indonesia. Politicised preaching has repercussions for Indonesia's internal security and political stability; this research will increase Australia's knowledge on this critical topic by focussing on orations staged in sensitive political environments: rural communities, the urban poor and army barracks.
