The concepts of "frame continuation" and "value-based identity" can be used as theoretical foundation to explore and explain the phenomena of dakwah movement performed by the alumni of KAMMI. Field research on KAMMI alumni role provides the primary empirical foundation for investigating frame continuation, a sustainability of the dakwah movement beyond students' movement organization. Discussion about KAMMI alumni's role provides empirical evidences about how they have strong commitment on either political or religious activities (or both) as their strategies to maintain and continue their previous identity as both political and religious activists. The main foundation for their activism is a value of dakwah (proselytizing), in which Islamic values are believed to be a suitable vehicle for constructing a sacred society in democratic era of Indonesia. The KAMMI alumni believe their movement is a significant religious duty.展开更多
