Sommario/riassunto

The Persatuan Islam (Islamic-Union) was a small group of Indonesian Muslim activists during the period 1923-1957. The story of these activists tells us much about the context of both Indonesian nationalism and Indonesian Islam as both developed during the first half of the 20th century.
