This book provides new data and perspectives on the development of 'world religion' in post-colonial societies through an analysis of the development of 'Hinduism' in various parts of Indonesia from the early twentieth century to the present. This development has been largely driven by the religious and cultural policy of the Indonesian central government, although the process began during the colonial period as an indigenous response to the introduction of modernity.Ramstedt, Martin is the author of 'Hinduism in Modern Indonesia', published 2003 under ISBN 9780415405980 and ISBN 041540598X.
