"Creative State-Making" & Some (Un)intended Consequences of Islamization
« Creative State-Making » et quelques conséquences (im)prévues de l’islamisation
Surprising Trajectories in Islam, Gender & Politics in Southeast Asia
Trajectoires surprenantes de l’islam, genre et politique en Asie du Sud-Est
Publicado vendredi, 04 de octobre de 2019
Resumo
Islam in Southeast Asia has enjoyed a thriving trajectory in recent years. This is in large part attributable to various state-led Islamization movements that have succeeded in weaving the values and tenets of Islam into the very fabric of Muslims’ everyday life, thereby fortifying the power of the state that claims to embody the divine authority and immutability of Islam. But while the state imagines itself to be the legitimate (and only) “guardian” of Islam, its attempts to monopolize Islamic interpretations and institutions also – perhaps unintentionally – open up a more complex, discursive space that allows non-state actors to submit to, challenge, or appropriate and refashion various forms of symbolic state power, often in unpredictable ways.

Presentation
Islam in Southeast Asia has enjoyed a thriving trajectory in recent years. This is in large part attributable to various state-led Islamization movements that have succeeded in weaving the values and tenets of Islam into the very fabric of Muslims’ everyday life, thereby fortifying the power of the state that claims to embody the divine authority and immutability of Islam. But while the state imagines itself to be the legitimate (and only) “guardian” of Islam, its attempts to monopolize Islamic interpretations and institutions also – perhaps unintentionally – open up a more complex, discursive space that allows non-state actors to submit to, challenge, or appropriate and refashion various forms of symbolic state power, often in unpredictable ways.
Inspired by an emerging anthropological focus on the bureaucratization of Islam in Southeast Asia, this workshop aims to explore how states adopt policies that engender surprising consequences on the ground, and the dynamic ways in which non-state actors too engage in processes of “creative state-making” (Müller 2018). The contributors to this workshop will offer theoretical and ethnographic insights from Southeast Asia to illuminate the unpredictability – and limits – of state-making, how these are tied to an intensified state investment on the bureaucratization of Islam, and the ways in which this directly impacts the intimacies of everyday life for Muslims in Southeast Asia.
Workshop organised by Nurul Mohd Razif, International Institute for Asian studies Postdoctoral fellow.
