Abstract

The tradition of giving belis in the traditional marriage practices of the West Manggarai ethnic group continues to be preserved by the people of Labuan Bajo City. Traditionally, belis is not merely a form of material exchange, but also a symbol of respect from the groom’s family toward the bride’s family and serves as a pillar that strengthens kinship relations. However, along with social dynamics and economic development, the meaning of belis has begun to shift. Excessively high financial demands are often perceived as a burden for prospective grooms. The type of research used in this study is field research with a data analysis approach. Data collection was conducted through observation, interviews, and documentation. This study describes the community’s perceptions of belis as a requirement in traditional marriage practices in Labuan Bajo City, West Manggarai Regency, and analyzes the continuity and changes in the practice of belis in response to the socio-economic dynamics of modern society. The results of the study show that belis remains a strong symbol of cultural identity among the Manggarai people. Nevertheless, social tensions arise when traditional values conflict with economic realities, leading to more critical perspectives from the community. Consequently, the process of negotiating values has become a common space for compromise. This study concludes that a more adaptive approach is needed in determining the value of belis, so that the preservation of tradition can be maintained without disregarding the economic capacity of the community.
