islamic finance in Multicultural Indonesia Thomas B. Pepinsky Assistant Professor of Government Cornell University 1. Introduction In this essay I consider the case for islamic finance in multicultural Indonesia. I argue that as both a normative good and as a practical matter, the continued development of an islamic financial system that operates in parallel with the conventional financial system is desirable. While I accept the arguments made by several prominent Muslim critics of islamic banking, which question philosophical consistency of islamic finance as practiced in modern economies, I reject their conclusions that islamic banking as currently practiced should therefore either be eliminated or dramatically reformed. Rather, I maintain that if their arguments are actually true, then the Indonesian state should continue to provide islamic financial services for consumers who demand them.
