Julia's Jihad

---

Does the proliferation of jilbabs (headscarves) in Indonesia since 1998 mean the nation has gone hardline? How did democracy happen in Indonesia, which has the largest population of Muslims in the world, and will it stick? Is the term ‘Muslim feminist’ an oxymoron? Do Muslims even like sex?

Julia’s Jihad provides the answer to these questions and much, much more: how the nation struggles to maintain the ‘unity in diversity’ of its 300 ethnic groups; how it practices ‘political cannibalism’ to deal with to its human rights problems; how environmentally we ‘burn our own house down’, and a whole lot of the other weird and wacky things that make Indonesia the fascinating bundle of contradictions it is.

Testimoni

Buku ini merupakan kumpulan esai pemikiran Julia selama 8 tahun yang pernah dimuat di The Jakarta Post dan majalah Tempo edisi bahasa Inggris. Tulisan Julia terasa tajam dan segar saat mengupas kompleksitas permasalahan di negeri ini. Mulai dari identitas wanita muslim, gerakan sosial, kebijakan publik, tradisi, kapitalisasi agama, hingga hak asasi manusia. Anda juga akan tersenyum-senyum sendiri saat menemukan selipan humor yang satir di dalam bahasan yang serius. Pas untuk Anda yang mencari bacaan alternatif dan menawarkan sudut pandang berbeda. – Femina.co.id
