Dove guarda l'Indonesia? Cristiani e Musulmani nel paese del sorriso

Maria Laura Conte, Dove guarda l’Indonesia? Cristiani e musulmani nel paese del sorriso, (Where is Indonesia looking? Christians and Muslims in the country of the smile), Marcianum Press, Venezia 2006

Born of a journey, this book intends to narrate the reality of Indonesia, the world’s most densely populated Islamic Country, and its small but active Christian community. Each chapter ends with an instant picture of some aspects of local life and culture: Muslim, Christian, Buddhist and Hindu shrines; paddy fields; the issue of conversions; a big mosque in Jakarta; a shopping centre as the emblem of globalization.
