In Indonesia diversity is generally seen as a blessing and the biggest asset of the nation that needs to be celebrated and protected. Bhinneka Tunggal Ika (Unity in diversity) is the epitome of national identity and an essential source of Indonesian soft power. Amid signs of growing intolerance this book by the Indonesian center for Islam and state studies is a timely and impressive compilation and reminder of real-life examples of tolerance in Indonesia - based on symbols, practices and personas. The mapping of multi-ethnic, multi-religion, mulita-culture, multi-beliefs and multi-practices in different parts of Indonesia provides rich realities of lived tolerance.
