the Role of the 'Ulama" During the Japanese Occupation of Indonesia (1942-45).

This thesis is intended to describe the evolution of Indonesian Islam and the complex role played by the 'ulama' in the modern history of Indonesia and particularly during the Japanese occupation. In contrast to Dutch policy, the Japanese chose the 'ulama' to participate in their administration. The 'ulama ' seized this fortuitous opportunity to prepare the Indonesians for the achievement of their freedom. On the other hand, the Japanese also,attempted to Nipponize Indonesian Islàm, but this attempt failed because the 'ulama' resisted it. / Cette thèse se propose de décrire l'évolution de l'Islam indonésien et le rôle complexe qu'ont joué les 'ulamà' dans l'histoire moderne de l'Indonésie, et plus particuliérement pendant la période de l'occupation japonaise. Par opposition à la politique hollandaise, les japonais , quant à eux, choisirent les 'ulama' afin que ces derniers participent à leur administration gouvernementale. Les 'ulama' saisirent cette occasion imprèvue pour préparer les indonésiens à obtenir leur indépendance. D'autre part, les japonais essayérent de "nipponiser" l'Islam indonésien mais cet éffort echoua car les 'ulama' les resistérent.
