Abstract

This research was aimed at exploring the influence of intellectual communities in the development of intellectuals in a Syarif Hidayatullah State Islamic University of Jakarta. To get the historical data of the student’s involvement on intellectual activities inside and outside the campus, we collected the premier and secondary data from the library and conducted informal interview with some influential figures. The study reveals that the intellectuals’ influence flows from generation to generation evidenced by the growth of discussion activities handled by the internal and external organizations in the campus of Syarif Hidayatullah State Islamic University of Jakarta. In the 1970s the students of this campus not only talked about Islam, but also social and regional issues, such as the New Order policy about the constitution of marriage for Indonesian Muslims and spiritualism school. Therefore, the students were aware the political and social condition so that they intensified the discussion to look for the solution. In addition, the intellectual communities had been able to immerse themselves in many non-governmental organizations. This social historical condition provided a spirit for bureaucracy, political parties, and scientific development, and was transmitted to the post reform era. This led to conclude that there was intellectual struggle among Syarif Hidayatullah State Islamic University students in many aspects of religious and political life or activities.
