FAMILY ROOM NEGOTIATIONS IN INTERFAITH MARRIAGES
Main Article Content
Abstract
For Indonesia, the issue of interfaith marriage is a sensitive one. The most important issue is the legality of interfaith marriages, which has caused some couples who will or have entered interfaith marriages to ask the court as a forum that can legalize their marriages. The purpose of this research is to find out the negotiation process in families doing interfaith marriages, especially in Kupang. Methods used in this research are qualitative approach and case study methods. Data collection through interviews with credible sources. Result of this research, conclude dialogue and communication prevent latent conflicts from becoming a hot wild ball in the community. Interfaith marriages conducted by couples who are old enough, economically stable, and psychologically mature seem more acceptable to both families because they can think, examine, and articulate their desires more rationally than marriages conducted by couples at an early age.
