Islamist Militias, the Military and Indonesia’s Authoritarian Turn

这个项目考察了伊斯兰民兵和印尼军队之间的关系。采用多尺度方法，它评估了全国和亚齐省的这种关系，亚齐省有着悠久的军事-民兵关系和政治生活的伊斯兰化历史。在第一次尝试系统地定位当前发展的历史背景下，本研究将利用访谈和档案研究来记录和分析军方使用长期建立的平民动员战术来重申其政治权力的程度。它所产生的分析将为了解军方在印尼当前的独裁转型中所扮演的角色提供新的视角。

This project examines the relationship between Islamist militias and the Indonesian military. Adopting a multi-scalar approach, it assesses this relationship nationally and in Aceh, a province with a long history of military–militia relations and Islamisation of political life. In the first attempt to systematically locate current developments in their historical context, this study will draw on interviews and archival research to document and analyse the extent to which the military is using long-established tactics of civilian mobilisation to reassert its political power. The analysis it generates will provide new insight into the role of the military in Indonesia’s current authoritarian turn.
