Abstract

Post-modernism perceives social phenomena through three fundamental structures, (1) deconstructionism, (2) relativism, and (3) pluralism. As one of the social symptoms of humanity, the religious movements of NU and Muhammadiyah also experienced a different development of thought from the beginning of its establishment. NU was established to provide "accompaniment" to the periphery Muslims of Indonesia, initially tending to be traditional-decentralized, but ultimately also accepting modernist-centralistic principles. Likewise, Muhammadiyah, with its modernist slogan of purification, initially rejected tradition (local Islam), but ultimately also appreciated the cultural values that developed in the community. It figures out that in both bodies (NU and Muhammadiyah) there is a dynamic of thought that continues to evolve along with the desired model of da'wah in its time. This certainly will give a different impression with decades ago, where both were founded. This situation is in accordance with the three main principles of post-modernism, i.e. deconstructionism, relativism, and pluralism.
