New Publication in Contemporary Southeast Asia, April 2025

Excited to share my latest publication in Contemporary Southeast Asia: 'The Rise of Religious Brokerage: Nahdlatul Ulama in Indonesia's 2024 Presidential Elections', co-authored with my colleague Aisah Putri Budiatri.
In this research, we examine the dramatic shift in Nahdlatul Ulama's political strategy during Indonesia's 2024 presidential elections. As Indonesia's largest Islamic organisation, NU implemented stricter policies and actively mobilised members to support government-endorsed candidates--notably backing Prabowo-Gibran despite neither having ties to the organisation.
This is actually my second publication this month (my keyboard is still recovering from the workout 😅...)
