Funded Activity Summary

Islamist Militias, the Military and Indonesia’s Authoritarian Turn. 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.
