| description | In the last few years Indonesia has been experiencing a new wave of Muslim revival. In addition to the growing
popularity of conservative and even radical Muslim ideologies such as Wahhabism and Salafism, this de facto
multi-religious society is facing a strong trend towards religious segregation. Indonesians are looking for new
forms of their religious manifestation and expressions of their piety. One of the most vivid examples of Muslim
separation from other religions is the perumahan syariah, a new form of gated communities in Indonesia. The
article describes the growing phenomenon of closed neighborhoods where residents’ lives are restricted by Sharia
law. The paper first describes the roots of the current religious revival and its impact on the social situation,
then deepens the definition of gated communities in the context of perumahan syariah as well as controversies
linked to the topic. In conclusion, the possible implications for social life in Indonesia are presented. |
