The book The Struggle of State, Religion, and Culture by Abdurrahman Wahid tells the story of a country that is not supposed to have anything to do with culture. According to Gus Dur, culture is the art of living or human social life which is built from interactions between humans; individuals and groups. Culture is thus a representation of human emancipation towards more survival. State intervention on culture, according to Gus Dur, will only create a bureaucratization of culture. Which will result in the freezing of the creative power of a society that is under massive change. This book, written by the former President of Indonesia, ulema, Muslim scholars, ulema, and cultural experts, is interesting to observe.
