The ideology of Islamism is one of the significant phenomena of modernity. Having emerged at the very beginning of the 20th century, “political Islam” intensified in the second half of it, and at present it is one of the main problems of international relations. Southeast Asia is no exception. As a region with a significant Muslim population, local states encounter it directly in the form of terrorist organizations, political parties, and separatist movements. Given the geostrategic significance of the region, the study of the challenges that Islamism represents in South-East Asia seems to be absolutely necessary.
