Abstract

Inter-religious conflicts and disputes in Indonesia are often triggered by polarization between extreme right (radical) and extreme left (liberal) groups. To overcome this problem, the Ministry of Religious Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia formulated the Religious Moderation program, which aims to reduce the two extreme groups. This program is expected to create a harmonious and peaceful religious and state life. However, its implementation has drawn criticism related to conceptual and practical issues. On that basis, the researcher wants to explain and critically analyze the concept of Religious Moderation and its practice in Indonesia. Religious moderation is an approach to building harmony between religious communities. The goal is that these efforts are based on religious values, not Western secular-liberal values. Islamic wasathiyyah theory is used as an analytical framework. This research uses a qualitative method, with literature study as the data collection method. After the data is collected, the researcher presents it using descriptive methods and critical analysis. This research describes the concept and practice of Religious Moderation in Indonesia and analyzes its fairness and balance between radical and liberal extreme groups. The researcher found that Religious Moderation leaves conceptual and practical problems. Conceptually, Religious Moderation contains religious pluralism and practically it is not fully fair and balanced in its application to the extreme left and right groups. So that it does not solve the problem of religious harmony, but instead creates new problems. In addition, Religious Moderation is different from wasathiyyah, which has the main characteristics of belief, sharia and morals that are inseparable, while Religious Moderation does not place Islamic belief and sharia as the main foundation. This research is expected to be a reference for further studies on Religious Moderation, especially in identifying problems that arise and exploring its implementation in building inter-religious harmony in Indonesia. Future research is suggested to conduct a more comprehensive and in-depth development of this program, including exploring the perspectives of various groups in society.
