The Muslim community constituting 90% of Indonesla's total population, remains divided into two major factions: the Secular Nationalists, who believe in a radical separation between state and religion, and the Islamic Nationalists who, while not insisting on a fully Islamic State maintain that the Constitution should include a recognition of the special place of Islam. This thesis offers a study of the controversies surrounding the Five Basic Principles of the State, the Panca Sila, officia1ly formulated for the first time in the Jakarta Charter signed on June 22nd 1945. Special attentionis paid to the revision of the Charter on August 18, 1945, and the reopening of the debates on the Jakarta Charter following the President's Decree of July 5, 1959.
