Rezensionen

'Well written, engaging, and thoroughly researched, this book is a welcome addition to the scholarship on Indonesian Islam. Its ethnographic and theoretical contributions make it particularly valuable to those who are interested in local Islam in global contexts, gender and religious movements, and the evolving role of Islam in contemporary Indonesian society.' - Suzanne Brenner, University of California, San Diego in The Asia Pacific Journal of Anthropology

'Essential to scholars, researchers, and university students in the field of Islamic studies, particularly those whose focus are in the context of Indonesia or Southeast Asia. Those in anthropology may also find the book a useful reference in understanding the religious practices by some of the Indonesian Muslim community in the country with the largest Muslim population in the world.' - Aan Diana, Desi Nuralim and Aulia Geger Jagatin in International Journal of Asian Studies

'Contributes to the discourse of gender studies in Asia and the wider context by unpacking the complexity of the everyday life experienced by cadari as they negotiate the interplay between piety, agency, and the rise of revivalist movements. The author provides strong theoretical foundations for each aspect.'- Nurti Rahayu, Myrza Rahmanita and Bayu Andika Prasatyo in Journal of Gender Studies
