Islam, Humanity and Indonesian
Identity.

One of the highlighted books is Islam, Humanity and Indonesian Identity, which Mark Woodward of Arizona State University's  Center for the Study of Religion and Conflict says is "...a stunning, and yet hopeful, critique of Indonesian political culture and global capitalism...This is not just a book about religion and politics in Indonesia. It is a major contribution to political philosophy."

In the book Ahmad Syafii Maarif argues for an understanding that is both faithful to Islam's essential teachings and open to constantly changing social and cultural contexts. 

He addresses contemporary issues such as democracy, human rights, religious freedom, the status of women, and the future of Islam.
