Persepsi Masyarakat Urban Mengenai Fenomena Pernikahan Beda Agama dalam Kehidupan Masyarakat Kota

Abstract

Indonesia is a country that has many differences. Usually urban communities often show a
portrait of pluralism. Currently, interfaith marriages have developed rapidly in urban
communities. In fact, now there are so many artists in the capital who have had interfaith
marriages. The existence of an event that is not in accordance with societal norms will definitely
cause a lot of controversy. Based on the illustration above, this research aims to reveal how
urban communities perceive interfaith marriages in the lives of urban communities. This study
used qualitative research methods. Then the data that has been obtained is analyzed using the
Miles and Huberman technique. Apart from that, this research has two data sources, namely
secondary and primary data. The research results showed that the majority of research subjects
stated that they did not agree with interfaith marriages. This perception illustrates that urban
communities do not experience social change while living in urban areas.
