Gender, Islam and Sexuality in Contemporary Indonesia

這本開放存取的專書探討了印尼這個世界上穆斯林人口最多的國家中，性別、伊斯蘭教和性取向之間的複雜互動。作者們透過各種文化表達和產物，包括時尚、伊斯蘭約會、流行文學和YouTube上的影片，提供了對於當地與全球之間的張力的新觀點。這本書圍繞著三個核心主題進行組織：性取向與暴力、清真生活方式，以及恥辱與自主性。第一部分探討了活動家和進步的宗教學者如何主張制定《性暴力法案》的必要性，並檢視了對待LGBTQ+人群的刑事化和關懷之間的矛盾態度。在第二部分中，作者們提供了關於當地伊斯蘭教、性別和性取向在日益全球化的世界中如何協商的新見解。第三個主題的貢獻則涉及到在香港、台灣、新加坡、美國和印尼等文化多樣的地區中的性別角色和流動性。這本書是一本必讀之作，對於想要了解印尼性別、性取向和伊斯蘭景觀變化的人來說。- Sharyn Graham Davies教授，澳大利亞蒙納士大學Herb Feith Indonesia Engagement Centre主任
