International Conferences on Nusantara Philosophy

The conference will take a broad approach toward the theme by inviting a range of different perspectives and crosscutting fields of research in the areas of humanities and social sciences in order to achieve theoretical, complex, and empirically grounded understanding about the intersection of democracy as an ethical and political concept, and the living and cross-cutting discourses of identity and ideology in Indonesia.

The Conference aims to:

1. Bring together the current studies, research and theoretical debates about the philosophy and dynamic of democracy, identities and ideologies within various settings of Indonesia.
2. Explore theoretical inquiries about the dynamics of democracy, identities and ideologies in Indonesian contexts.
3. Mediate theoretical exploration and debates about models, frameworks, and practice of democracy particularly in relation to overlapping and often contradictory discourses of identity and ideology in Indonesia.
4. Seek alternative strategies and formats of democratic model to achieve the understanding of democratic principle in its widest and liberating meaning.
