This review aims to provide a critical analytical perspective on the research entitled "Islamophobia and Communism: A Persistent Bias in Contemporary Indonesia" by diagnosing its theoretical foundations, deconstructing its premises and motivations, evaluating its methodology, and analyzing its findings to determine its significance within the political literature landscape. The study adopted a systematic analytical approach as its primary method for identifying inputs, tracking inferential outputs, and measuring the coherence of the study's cognitive structure. The review concluded that Islamophobia and communism represent a highly complex phenomenon in Indonesian society, transcending the cultural and religious dimension and linked to historical ideological conflicts between the political authority, which is considered an opposition to Islamic parties and forces, and whose policies are classified as forms of Islamophobia through the consolidation of a negative image of Islam and the Arabic language. The review also proposes forward-looking perspectives based on expanding the comparison with other models, which contributes to providing a deeper understanding of the subject of Islamophobia and communism in Indonesia and the Western world.
