Abstract

The outset of ref orm asi or democratization in Indonesia was marked by both positive outcomes in terms of the freedom, fair and accountable election, good governance, improving the quality of life of the people and the negative outcome in terms of communal conflicts, violent movements, terrorism and the rise of radical groups. The spread of radical ideology has attracted the concern of social and political leaders as it has penetrated to education institutions from lower levels to universities. Hizbut Tahrir Indonesia (HTI) is one of the groups in radical category. Its teachings promote anti-unitary state of Indonesia, democracy, Human Rights and reject political pluralism. Entering Indonesia in the 1980, this trans-national organization has developed its network to 30 provinces with 300 branches. It develops its primary basis in campuses in entire Indonesia, notably in state university campuses. As an organization with semi- covert operation, HTI members remain un-identified completely. Open sources disclose its members numbered form two millions to seven millions. As with its massive movements and propaganda in terms of sermon, conference and demonstration which promotes Khilafah political system, the Government of Indonesia regards HTI as a threat to the Unitary State of Indonesia (NKRI)
