Daftar Isi:
  • Polygamy is a form of marriage that often leads to polemics in the society despite the fact that the concept of polygamy in Islamic law is basically permissible if the husband acts fairly. However, in terms of positive law, to have a polygamous marriage, a husband must get permission from the court under limited justifications and strict conditions. Without the legal permission from the court, the practice of polygamy will have implications in the positive law in Indonesia. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to apprehend the implications of the practice of polygamy on positive law in Indonesia. The result is that Practices of Polygamy may have an impact on the Indonesian criminal and civil law system.
