This article examines the Nahdlatul Ulama in the Netherlands. Nahdlatul Ulama is the largest Muslim organization in Indonesia which is now starting to open branches overseas, including in the Netherlands. Despite its traditional pattern, NU has a religious vision which has been very responsive to global connectivity from the beginning. Based on interviews and observations, this article demonstrates the ability of the Dutch NU to portray itself as a religious diaspora organization that bridges the identity needs of its members regarding the homeland and the reality of daily life in the Dutch multicultural society. Keywords: Nahdlatul Ulama, traditional Islam, religious connectivity, Indonesia, Dutch multicultural society REFERENCE: Anderson, Bennedict R.
