By: Material type: TextTextPublication details: 2020Subject(s): Online resources: In: Australian Journal of International Affairs: Vol.74 Issue 4, August 2020, pp.420-438 (36)Summary: This article discusses the conditions under which such a three-track populism could emerge in Indonesia. In identifying the drivers of populism, it points to the existence of a major religio-political cleavage, the framing of that cleavage in a narrative of economic inequality, the easy targeting of cultural minorities, and the collaboration of established parties. The discussion demonstrates that populist attitudes are spread widely across the ideological landscape; that its intensity is highest at the extreme ends of Indonesia's Islamist-pluralist spectrum
