| Résumé: | Spirit in and out of southeast Asia's modernity / Peter J. Bräunlein -- The social placing of religion and spirituality in Vietnam in the the context of Asian modernity / Michael Dickhardt -- Where the dead go to the market : market and ritual as social systems in upland southeast Asia / Guido Sprenger -- Modernity and spirit possession in Java : horse dance and its contested magic / Paul Christensen -- Hadhrami modern : recurrent dynamics as historical rhymes of Indonesia's reformist Islamic organization Al-Irsyad / Martin Slama -- Mubeng Beteng : a contested ritual of circumambulation in Yogyakarta / Susanne Rodemeier -- 'Muslim modernities' in Makassar and Yogykarta : negotiating 'the West' as a frame of reference / Melanie V. Nertz -- Cosmological battles : understanding susceptibility and resistance to transnational Islamic revivalism in Java / Thomas Reuter -- Modes of interreligious coexistence and civility in Maluku / Birgit Bräuchler -- Ethnicity and violence in Bali : and what Barong Landung says about it / Volker Gottowik -- Contested Moksa in Balinese Agama Hindu : Balinese death rituals between ancestor worship and modern Hinduism / Annette Hornbacher -- Good girls : Christianity, modernity and gendered morality in Tanah Karo, North Sumatra / Karin Klenke -- Bukit Kasih, the Hill of Love : multireligiosity for pleasure / Judith Schlehe. Starting from the premise that modernity has cast a spell over people around the world, this collection explores the use of magic and religion as modern tools for connection. The contributors draw on new ethnographic research in Vietnam, Laos, Thailand, and Indonesia to show that residents of these countries no longer see religion and modernity as contradictory. Rather, religious ideas and magic practices help people across the region to meet the challenges of modern life. Revising our understanding of religion in Southeast Asia, this collection sheds new light on the multiple modernities that characterize our globalized world |
