Marriage and Divorce in a Multicultural Context: Multi-Tiered Marriage and the Boundaries of Civil Law and Religion
ISBN: 9781107614369 / Angielski / Miękka / 418 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 12-16 dni roboczych. American family law makes two key assumptions: first, that the civil state possesses sole authority over marriage and divorce; and second, that the civil law may contain only one regulatory regime for such matters. These assumptions run counter to the multicultural and religiously plural nature of our society. They are also wrong. This book elaborates how those assumptions are descriptively incorrect, and it begins an important conversation about whether more pluralism in family law is normatively desirable. For example, may couples rely upon religious tribunals (Jewish, Muslim, or otherwise)...

This book deals with a subject that has recently been the focus of debate and law reform in many jurisdictions: how much scope should spouses have to conclude agreements concerning their financial affairs and under which circumstances should such agreements be binding and enforceable?

Brought up in the stately grandeur of Burghley House as heir to the earldom of Exeter, Henry Cecil seemed to have made a suitable match to the heiress of Hanbury Hall, but their marriage was to end in disaster when Emma eloped with Henry's friend, the local curate.

The Marriage Buyout: The Troubled Trajectory of U.S. Alimony Law
ISBN: 9780814708248 / Angielski / Twarda / 225 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 27 dni roboczych. From divorce court to popular culture, alimony is a dirty word. Unpopular and rarely ordered, the awards are frequently inconsistent and unpredictable. The institution itself is often viewed as an historical relic that harkens back to a gendered past in which women lacked the economic independence to free themselves from economic support by their spouses. In short, critics of alimony claim it has no place in contemporary visions of marriage as a partnership of equals. But as Cynthia Lee Starnes argues in The Marriage Buyout, alimony is often the only practical tool for ensuring... From divorce court to popular culture, alimony is a dirty word.

Sister Wives, Surrogates and Sex Workers: Outlaws by Choice?
ISBN: 9781409435211 / Angielski / Twarda / 258 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Did she choose that? Or, more normatively, Why would she choose that? This book critiques and offers an alternative to these questions, which have traditionally framed law and policy discussions circulating around controversial genderized practices. It examines the simplicity and incompleteness of choice-based rhetoric and of presumptions that women s conduct is shaped, in an absolute way, either by choice or by coercion. This book develops an analytical framework that aims to discern the meaning and value that women may ascribe to morally ambiguous practices. An analysis of law s approach to...

The Ties That Bind (Routledge Revivals): Law, Marriage and the Reproduction of Patriarchal Relations
ISBN: 9780415644853 / Angielski / Miękka / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. First published in 1984, this book made an important and timely contribution to the development of the idea that the law is a major source of women's oppression. Based on research of the theory and practice of family law, it examines the way in which private law operates to sustain, reproduce and reinforce the dependence of women in the most private of spheres, namely marriage. The author focuses on the point of break down or divorce, where the economic vulnerability of women caused by marriage and the sexual division of labour is most clearly expressed. She points to the way in which the...

After Legal Equality: Family, Sex, Kinship
ISBN: 9780415721615 / Angielski / Twarda / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Groups seeking legal equality often take a victory as the end of the line. Once judgment is granted or a law is passed, coalitions disband and life goes on in a new state of equality. Policy makers too may assume that a troublesome file is now closed. This collection arises from the urgent sense that law reforms driven by equality call for fresh lines of inquiry. In unintended ways, reforms may harm their intended beneficiaries. They may also worsen the disadvantage of other groups. Committed to tackling these important issues beyond the boundaries that often confine legal scholarship,...

The Optional Matrimonial Property Regime: The Franco-German Community of Accrued Gains
ISBN: 9781780682242 / Angielski / Miękka / 348 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 27 dni roboczych. The optional matrimonial property regime of the community of accrued gains was created to address legal difficulties that may arise from marriages between persons of different nationalities or persons not living in their country of origin.

This regime is of interest beyond the borders of France and Germany because...

In 1958 Mildred Jeter and Richard Loving, two young lovers from Caroline County, Virginia, got married. Soon they were hauled out of their bedroom in the middle of the night and taken to jail.

Forced marriages take place all over the world, both in times of peace and in times of conflict.

ISBN: 9780691166483 / Angielski / Twarda / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-18 dni roboczych. The institution of marriage stands at a critical juncture. As gay marriage equality gains acceptance in law and public opinion, questions abound regarding marriage's future. Will same-sex marriage lead to more radical marriage reform? Should it? Antonin Scalia and many others on the right warn of a slippery slope from same-sex marriage toward polygamy, adult incest, and the dissolution of marriage as we know it. Equally, many academics, activists, and intellectuals on the left contend that there is no place for monogamous marriage as a special status defined by law. Just Married...

Marriage Rites and Rights
ISBN: 9781849469135 / Angielski / Miękka / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 27 dni roboczych. Recent years have seen extensive discussion about the continuing retreat from marriage, the increasing demand for the right to marry from previously excluded groups, and the need to protect those who do not wish to marry from being forced to do so. At the same time, weddings are big business, couples are spending more than ever before on getting married, and marriage ceremonies are increasingly elaborate. It is therefore timely to reflect on the rites of marriage, as well as the right to marry (or not to marry), and the relationship between them. To this end, this new interdisciplinary...
