Rémy Madinier, « Majelis Syura Muslimin Indonesia (MASYUMI) », HAL SHS (Sciences de l’Homme et de la Société), ID : 10670/1.26301b...
The Masyumi party (1945-1960) was the main political group in Indonesia and apparently also the largest Muslim party in the world. Comprising almost all the country's Islamic organizations, Masyumi defined and defended the ideal of a Muslim democracy. A fervent supporter of parliamentary democracy, Masyumi was one of the rare parties to steadfastly oppose, from 1957 onwards, the 'Guided Democracy' of President Soekarno, an authoritarian regime founded on a social consensus of Javanese-inspired values of mutual aid. This led to Masyumi's being banned in August 1960 and its leaders thrown in jail.
