Abstract

This paper examined counter-radicalization at UIN Mataram (Mataram State Islamic University) through a systematic approach. It focused on the forms, typology, roots, and gateways of radicalism in the Islamic university. This study categorized the roots of radicalism to the internal aspect of the system, while the gateways are referred to the external component. The findings showed that the efforts to demolish radicalism at UIN Mataram should be preceded by the understanding of (a) forms and typology of radicalism, (b) understanding of the roots and gateways of the radical ideology, and (3) offering solutions through system approach. These include leadership involvement, disseminating moderate Islamic values (Washatiyyah), re-examining the curriculum and materials prone to misunderstanding, modifying the pedagogical methods, involving Islamic boarding schools, and carrying out more studies on radicalism at Islamic higher education institutions.
