Abstract

Reformation in line with democratization post-1998 in Indonesia provided an increasingly open space as a forum for the dissemination and the contestation of ideological identity resulting in the development of transnational and local Islamic movements in various regions. The contestation and dissemination of ideological identity, particularly Islamic identity, has penetrated into academic culture of education in Indonesia. This article is a study on secondary data and literature concerning Islamic populism discourse as one of dissemination and contestation discourses in digital society in Indonesia. The approach used in conducting research was a descriptive qualitative method by means of analyzing secondary data such as scientific journal, article, and observation on social media. The author concluded that the process of digital infrastructure highly developing recently has been a capital in resonating and building populism politics. It is triggered by democratization in using social media, so that the people can choose which religious guidance or religious authority they believe in (private theology). Therefore, digitization through social media makes Islamic populism work effectively and efficiently.
