Country: Indonesia Topic: History of Indonesia in 20th century and role of Islam A 15-minute presentation on the political history of one Muslim-majority country with the use of materials such as PowerPoint and/or handouts with an attached bibliography. The presentation should: • Focus on the over-arching political history of the chosen country from the 20th century to the present, but with a much larger focus on the 20th century. • Discuss the key turning points and major events in this period. • Choose an appropriate point in the 20th century and explain your start date. For example: For Saudi Arabia you can start with 1932 and explain the significance of this moment. Or for Pakistan start with the Partition in 1947 and briefly explain these events. • Examine the main political groups who want power – who are they and what is their ideology? (left liberals, secularists, Islamists, religious scholars etc) • Pay particular attention to the issue of democracy (if your country even acknowledges this!) or the type of leadership (monarchy, authoritarianism) • Other than explaining what happened, also give your own assessment of the events. • At the end briefly give some recommendations to the country. If you were a government advisor, what would you advise? Attached is the guidelines and grading criteria. Please follow very carefully
