Frontmatter -- FOREWORD -- The Serious Social Impact of Non-violent Extremism in Indonesia. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY -- The Serious Social Impact of Non-violent Extremism in Indonesia
Summary
The rise of religious extremism in public discourses is a cause for concern for government officials and moderate Muslims. While a substantial body of research on violent extremism is available, the issue of non-violent extremism remains neglected by scholars. Although exposure and subscription to non-violent extremism do not automatically lead to violence, it still needs to be curbed because it can fan hatred that in turn can lead to physical violence and repression of human rights. Non-violent extremism also boosts polarization in the community
