The Potential of Localized Islamic Concepts in the Human Sciences: The Example of Silaturahmi for the Field of Diplomacy

摘要


Silaturahmi is a localized Islamic concept in Indonesia that is derived from what God and the Prophet Muhammad said about keeping or mending ties between family or kin. With the situated concept and practice of silaturahmi, I will illustrate how localized Islamic concepts have the potential to contribute to an existing body of knowledge. Combining two methodological approaches, those of new area studies and those of the "integration of knowledge", I aim to make an addition to the field of diplomacy and its connection to Islam. I propose that silaturahmi can be used to beautify and enrich the secular field of diplomacy. I will also show that silaturahmi as a conceptional framework for diplomacy has the potential to enhance international relations.
