ABSTRACT
This chapter looks at collateral momentums, diffusions and the spill-over effects of Islamisation projects in education, politics, and the economy. It provides a preliminary assessment of what has been implemented in terms of Islamisation policies relating to collective societal concerns, and serves to answer the question of how people get from the epistemic dimension of religion to economy and advocacy. The main field for discussion is Islamisation in the field of education with a particular focus on student activism in Indonesia and Malaysia and its transversal connectivities. In both countries, activists and protagonists from outside the traditional 'ulama' circles emerged as promotors of an Islamic resurgence, entailing not an Islamisation of Knowledge in its purely epistemic sense, but in a much broader understanding comprised in the phrase 'Islam as a way of life'. The resurgence movements that emerged during this wave of activism are conventionally called dakwah movements.
