Romance and Courtship among Muslim Javanese Youth</p><p> With Nancy J. Smith Hefner, Department of Anthropology</p><p> Romantic love is going global. Recent ethnographic studies of youth have identified a new emphasis on romantic love and companionate marriage, perceived as a dramatic break with the previous generations and associated with emerging ideals of agency and choice.</p><p>In the Muslim world, however, the religious resurgence is greatly complicating the romance story with some young people opting to forego dating for religiously-arranged matches.  This paper looks at this new Islamic trend in Java, Indonesia, and examines the possibilities for romantic relationships in the context of a resurgent Islam.</p><p>Monday, December 7 at 5:00 @ 121 Bay State Road</p><p> See attached for a flyer for this event.</p>
