*Book launch of Dr. Daniel Peterson's new book, "Islam, Blasphemy, and
Human Rights in Indonesia: The Trial of Ahok"
*About this Event*
With introductory comments from Associate Professor*Greg Fealy* (Australian
National University)*, Dr. Daniel Peterson*, a lawyer associated with the
Centre for Indonesian Law, Islam and Society at the University of
Melbourne, will discuss his book, ‘Islam, Blasphemy, and Human Rights in
Indonesia: The Trial of Ahok’. Through an examination of the blasphemy
trial of the former governor of Jakarta, Basuki ‘Ahok’ Tjahaja Purnama,
this book asks whether Indonesia’s liberal democratic human rights regime
can withstand the rise of Islamist majoritarian sentiment and moral panic.
