Abstract:
The goal to be achieved in this research is to find out the legal consequences of the position of children in unregistered marriages according to Islamic Law and the Marriage Law. To understand the concept of unregistered marriage according to Islamic Law and the Marriage Law. In this study the authors used the normative juridical writing method, namely legal research conducted using statutory regulations.According to Islamic law, an unregistered marriage is considered valid because a marriage that meets the pillars and conditions of marriage will be considered valid. Siri marriages are considered invalid according to the Marriage Law, because they refer to the provisions of Article 2 paragraph (2) of the Marriage Law regarding registration of marriages. From the provisions of this article, it can be seen that the Marriage Law focuses on the validity of marriage on two elements, namely; Marriage must be carried out in accordance with the conditions and procedures determined by law (state law) and religious law. This means that unregistered marriages that are carried out only by complying with religious law are not valid from the point of view of state law.For the legal status of children from unregistered marriages, according to Islamic law, they are considered legitimate children according to religion, because the child was born in or as a result of a legal marriage. According to the Marriage Law, the status of the child is the same as a child out of wedlock and cannot be said to be a child in a legal marriage, therefore the child does not have a birth certificate. As a result, legally the child has no right to claim support, inheritance or guardianship rights from his father. However, children from unregistered marriages can obtain their rights in accordance with Constitutional Court decision Number 46/PUU-VIII/2010 as long as they can prove it.

Abstract:
Child marriage occurred long before the emergence of the Marriage Law number 1 of 1974 and its amendment, namely Law number 16 of 2019. The difference lies in the reason for the marriage itself. Long before the reason for underage marriages was a growing culture that women were considered sufficient to be at home, and to be the mother of the children they were born with. The strengthening patriarchal culture has an impact on the marginalization of women. The term women are kitchens, mattresses, legendary wells and perpetuate underage marriages. Issues that develop are different because child marriage now leads to promiscuity. The problem currently encountered is the increasing number of child marriages. The purpose of this study was to analyze the role of local government in preventing child marriage, with the locus in Grobogan Regency. This research used a qualitative descriptive approach. The results of the study show that the role of local government is not optimal. Prevention of child marriage is not as easy as solving other social problems. Family isolation, and scattered locations make it difficult for local governments to control child marriage. The role of stakeholders in preventing child marriage is not strong. Child marriage is considered a sensitive area that is not easy to touch.

Married couples must meet religious and state law. In Islamic law, marriages must be fulfilled, the harmony of the marriage, the bride and groom, prospective guardians, marriage, two people, consent and Kabul, while state law, needs to be added validity, marriage, must be in accordance with applicable law. However, not a few marriages in areas that carry out their marriages are only based on religious law and customary law, without involving Marriage Registrar to improve this marriage by considering siri marriages that increase returns to desired husbands and children. Civil rights are not guaranteed at the time of marriage to a siri marriage because the child will not obtain citizenship status, and the child only has a civil relationship with the mother and related family, which basically requires the cost of child care.

Abstract:
One of the most common forms of child exploitation in the world is early marriage. Although the number of underage marriages has declined to some extent, it continues to rise in a number of countries. Early marriage usually means the marriage of a child under the age of 18. Many of these marriages are also referred to as "child and forced marriages" because they are performed without conscious consent. Early marriage separates children from their families and peers, exposes them to domestic violence, and jeopardizes their development, educational, social and professional opportunities. Such marriages can also lead to psychological problems such as depression, adaptation disorders, post-traumatic stress, and suicide attempts. This review article aims to assess the causes and psychosocial consequences of early marriage. Key words: Family age, child exploitation, psychosocial aspects

Child marriage is a global issue that has become a challenge in many countries, one of which is Indonesia. The purpose of this research is to explore the factors of child marriage, analyze the child marriage regulations applied by Indonesia and then compare them with Malaysia in order to find the best ideal formulation for Indonesia in terms of regulating child marriage, and map out what steps need to be taken to reduce the number of child marriages. Included in the type of normative legal research by collecting all relevant legal materials through library research techniques and then analyzed descriptively qualitative. The results show that there are nine factors for child marriage ranging from poverty to self-will. In addition, there are differences in child marriage regulations in Indonesia and Malaysia where the positive thing that Indonesia can adopt from Malaysia is the synchronization of the age of the child in the Marriage Law and the Child Protection Law to be in line with the Convention on the Rights of the Child. Efforts to reduce the number of child marriages must have a strong synergy between the government and the community.

Abstract:
Child marriages are major public health issues in the developing world. It is defined as marriage before the age of 18 years. According to UNFPA (United Nations Fund for Population), in developing world, 36 percent of girls are married before reaching the age of 18 years, and 10 percent of girls in these countries are married before the age of 15 years.1 Globally, it is estimated that 10 million pregnancies occur in adolescent girls, and 90% of these occur in developing countries.2 The burden is mainly borne by the Sub Saharan Africa and South Asian countries.3 Except in Nepal, where legal age of marriage is 20 years, the legal age in India, Bangladesh and Srilanka is 18 years. In Pakistan, except for the Sindh province where legal age of marriage is 18 years, the rest of the provinces have legal age of 16 years for contracting marriage. Hence there is increased prevalence of child marriage in Baluchistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa provinces.4 It is observed that this legal cover is mainly seen on papers, and reality is far different in the actual world. Child marriages not only take away the joys of childhood, it also brings with it the burden of social, psychological and reproductive harms. It not only affects the female child, but also has its effects on the male child. The burden of raising and supporting a family at a younger age exerts extra mental and psychological trauma, among boys. This in turn increases the incidence of domestic violence among the couples. It is a well-known fact that child marriages are more common in low- income household, rural areas, and at times are contracted in order to settle family disputes. In rural areas these child marriages are seen as a stop gap arrangement for premarital sex, unwanted pregnancies and sexual assault. These adolescent girls are married to elderly men, invoking mental disparity and psychological trauma. There is also increased prevalence of domestic violence and wife beating in this age group. Vertical transmission of this attitude has also been observed in studies. This basic violation of human rights is transferred from mothers to daughters as normal behaviours.5 Continue...

Abstract:
SummaryThis study examines the trends and determinants of child marriage among women aged 20–49 in Bangladesh. Data were extracted from the last six nationally representative Demographic and Health Surveys conducted during 1993–2011. Simple cross-tabulation and multivariate binary logistic regression analyses were adopted. According to the survey conducted in 2011, more than 75% of marriages can be categorized as child marriages. This is a decline of 10 percentage points in the prevalence of child marriage compared with the survey conducted in 1993–1994. Despite some improvements in education and other socioeconomic indicators, Bangladeshi society still faces the relentless practice of early marriage. The mean age at first marriage has increased by only 1.4 years over the last one and half decades, from 14.3 years in 1993–1994 to 15.7 years in 2011. Although the situation on risk of child marriage has improved over time, the pace is sluggish. Both the year-of-birth and year-of-marriage cohorts of women suggest that the likelihood of marrying as a child has decreased significantly in recent years. The risk of child marriage was significantly higher when husbands had no formal education or little education, and when the wives were unemployed or unskilled workers. Muslim women living in rural areas have a greater risk of child marriage. Women's education level was the single most significant negative determinant of child marriage. Thus, the variables identified as important determinants of child marriage are: education of women and their husbands, and women's occupation, place of residence and religion. Programmes to help and motivate girls to stay in school will not only reduce early marriage but will also support overall societal development. The rigid enforcement of the legal minimum age at first marriage could be critical in decreasing child marriage.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the custom of child marriage in Islamic law and its practice in Muslim society. It also gives an overview of the history of child marriage from ancient to modern times. The focus of this research is the status of child marriage in the modern Muslim world as a continuation of ancient tradition and the role historical interpretations of Islamic law play in its perpetuation.
Child marriage was once a globally accepted and practiced phenomenon. Over the centuries its practice has diminished considerably. Today, although child marriage is viewed as an offensive act and discouraged by the majority of governments around the world, it continues to exist to a significant extent in most parts of the Muslim world. Those Muslim communities which persist in condoning and practicing child marriage are not only affected by cultural traditions but also by their form of understanding of Islamic law. This particular understanding is mostly informed by local religious leaders within their communities who base their justifications on medieval perspectives and interpretations of what constitutes divine law.
It is no coincidence, however, that child marriage is restricted to the impoverished, uneducated and rural sectors of society; people who have little choice in deciding their futures and due to harsh and straitened circumstances find it difficult to see any other alternatives.

This thesis deals with a sensitive and very relevant topic, child marriage with focus on the girl. To be exact, I study arguments concerning child marriage put forward in Swedish public debate over the past decade, arguments made in public commissions, by the government, by political parties and occasionally by non-governmental organisations. I analyse these arguments by using argumentation analysis, highlighting pro and con arguments and their baring and relevance by establish normative statements and arguments supported by empirical evidence. On the results of the analysis theories by Martha Nussbaum and Moller Okin are applied in order to clarify some of the normative arguments. My conclusion of this thesis is that the normative arguments are more often used than empirical arguments. Leaving me to think that further research on this topic is needed.

Abstract:
In despite of all attention drawn to child marriage across the world, there is a lack of improvement. The object of this research is to look into under what circumstances child marriage does exist and how girls’ living conditions can be improved. Focus shall be put on child marriage in general exemplified in particular by two countries in Africa, namely Niger and Chad, who both are countries with an extremely high rate of child marriage. This is a desk study based on various reports regarding the subject in the different countries and also in general. As the theoretical framework, the sex role theory is applied in order to analyze the phenomenon. Studies indicate a great difference in the number of young married girls in comparison to boys across the globe. Even though boys can be victims of child marriage, the consequences are less severe and therefore, focus shall be put on girls only in this thesis. The number of girls entering early marriage has not been found to stagnate everywhere, but the age of when entering marriage tends to increase. In fact, child marriage has become more common in some areas. From the research it is concluded that one cannot generalize all underlying causes of child marriage, but one must be aware of the specific circumstances in the particular areas. Conclusions regarding underlying factors and correlations are further to be found and presented in the text.

Abstract:
This study seeks to achieve a deeper understanding of the phenomenon of child marriage among Syrian refugees, identify the causes and the consequences of this phenomenon, and explore the relationship between the armed conflict in Syria and the prevalence of child marriage practices among Syrian refugees living in refugee camps in Lebanon. To achieve the objectives of the study, the researcher used the case study approach and mixed-methods methodology in data collection and analysis. Quantitative data were collected by questionnaire from twenty participants, all women who married before the age of eighteen. Qualitative data were collected through interviews with ten of the participants, all of whom married before the age of eighteen. The findings indicate the contributing role played by the Syrian armed conflict in the prevalence of child marriage practices among Syrian refugees and that Syrian refugees used child marriage as a survival strategy. The results also reveal that there are two types of child marriages: forced and consensual. The study demonstrates that child marriage is a serious violation of children's rights. Recommendations for governments, NGOs, and further research are included.
Denna studie söker uppnå en djupare förståelse för företeelsen barnäktenskap så som den yttrar sig bland syriska flyktingar, att identifiera orsakerna och konsekvenserna av detta fenomen och att titta närmare på relationen mellan den beväpnade konflikten i Syrien och förekomsten av barnäktenskap bland syriska flyktingar som bor i flyktingläger i Libanon. För att nå undersökningens mål använde forskaren ”case study”-formen och mixed-methods-metoden för datainsamling och analys. Kvantitativa data samlades via frågeformulär från tjugo deltagare, samtliga kvinnor, som gifte sig före arton års ålder. Kvalitativa data samlades genom intervjuer med tio av deltagarna, som samtliga gifte sig före arton års ålder. Resultatet pekar på den påverkan som den syriska beväpnade konflikten spelat i förekomsten av barnäktenskap som brukas bland syriska flyktingar och att syriska flyktingar använde barnäktenskap som en överlevnadsstrategi. Resultaten visar också att det finns två typer av barnäktenskap: tvångsäktenskap och samförståndsäktenskap. Studien visar att barnäktenskap är en allvarlig kränkning av barns rättigheter. Rekommendationer för regeringar, icke-statliga organisationer och för vidare forskning är inkluderade.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to interrogate how law, and Nigerian domestic law in particular, can be used to bring about a change in society with respect to child marriage. Despite international and regional prohibitions and national laws against the sexual abuse of the girl child in Nigeria, the practice of child marriage persists, predominantly in Northern Nigeria which is known for its strong religious and cultural leanings. Of the women in this part of the country, 45% are given out in marriage before their fifteenth birthday and usually with the obligation to become mothers within the first year of marriage. The reality is that marriage for girls of twelve years or even younger is not unknown. The significance of the problem however is related to the fact that certain aspects of Nigerian law, while not expressly supporting child marriage, acknowledge or recognise the practice. The issue is further complicated by inherent contradictions in the national jurisprudence. The existence of multiple conflicting and contradictory legal provisions, particularly with respect to the age of a girl child, and the admission in some of the Nigeria’s legislation that child marriage exists, raise questions about the condonation of the practice. In addition, there is customary law and Islamic law which do not necessarily reject the practice and which are ironically part of the applicable laws in Nigeria’s legal system. Further aspects of the discourse are the legalities which inhibit the direct application of ratified international and regional treaties, the express decriminalisation of sexual intercourse with a girl child as long as it is within marriage, and the complexities associated with federalism. The implications and consequences of child marriage have moved out of the private domain to the point where they now constitute bigger crimes in the public sphere, namely the danger to the lives of individual girls and the threat to the development of Nigerian society. This thesis looks at the practice of child marriage in general and specifically the issues of age and consent as they relate to capacity and consent to marriage, sexual intercourse and the right to non-discrimination and equality under Nigerian jurisprudence. It examines the nature, effects and legality of child marriage by investigating the reasons for the practice and the nature of legal response in Nigeria. It considers the position of the legal systems of constituent states on the application of international and regional human rights instruments to protect the girl child against child marriage, and evaluates the role of the Federal Government of Nigeria in dealing with the issue in light of its signature and ratification of international treaties and regional charters on the protection of the girl child. The thesis further analyses the conflicts that emanate from the interplay of differing customary law, Sharia and constitutional provisions on child marriage in Nigeria’s competing legal systems. Lastly, it proposes a law making model for the prohibition of child marriage by prescribing punishment and addressing other child marriage related issues.

Abstract:
Con il termine matrimonio infantile ci si riferisce alla celebrazione di qualsiasi matrimonio in cui uno dei due sposi ha meno di diciotto anni. È una pratica ampiamente diffusa in tutto il mondo e si stima che ogni anno circa dodici milioni di ragazze si sposino prima di compiere diciotto anni. L’obiettivo di questa tesi è quello di individuare delle soluzioni per porre fine al matrimonio infantile. La tesi è composta da cinque capitoli. Il primo capitolo si apre analizzando la condizione dei bambini nel mondo. Si procede poi con il secondo capitolo che presenta e analizza le principali convenzioni che si impegnano a proteggere i diritti dei bambini a cui spesso si farà riferimento nel corso della tesi. Il terzo capitolo, di fondamentale importanza, analizza le cause che stanno alla base del matrimonio infantile: povertà, insicurezza, norme e pratiche sociali e tradizioni. Il capitolo continua analizzando le gravi conseguenze che derivano da questa pratica: violazione di diritti umani fondamentali come il diritto alla salute, all’educazione ma anche violenza domestica e conseguenze psicologiche. Il quarto capitolo analizza il fenomeno delle spose bambine con un caso studio sullo Yemen. La prima sezione del capitolo fornisce una descrizione del paese per poi analizzare la condizione di donne e bambini e infine fornire una testimonianza diretta da parte di due donne yemenite. Il quinto e ultimo capitolo è dedicato alle soluzioni che possono porre fine al matrimonio infantile.

Abstract:
Over the past decade, policymakers have promoted marriage as a pathway to improve child outcomes in single-parent households. However, previous research on single mothers who later married in the United States has failed to examine how the structural advantages and disadvantages of race influence post-birth marriages and the advantage they may confer. I investigate how white advantage—the human- and social-capital benefits that come from being a white individual—acts as a resource distributed differently across three couple configurations. I predict that having access to white advantage via a white parent will improve child academic achievement. Using the US Early Childhood Longitudinal Study 1998 (ECLS-K 1998) and the US Early Childhood Longitudinal Study 2011 (ECLS-K 2011), I compare children from white monoracial marriages, white-Hispanic interracial marriages, and Hispanic monoracial marriages. My results suggest that white advantage in the home increases access to critical resources that improve child academic achievement. Additionally, I find further evidence of Hispanic disadvantage as children from Hispanic monoracial marriages score lower on math and reading tests than children from white monoracial marriages, even after accounting for resource and demographic factors.

With the recent reopening of Bangladeshi schools, authorities have been alarmed by the number of girls not attending classes.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: Child marriage is the result of the interplay of economic and social forces. In communities where the practice is prevalent, marrying a girl as a child is part of a cluster of social norms and attitudes that reflect the low value accorded to the human rights of girls. Child marriage has many effects on girls’ health. This study aimed to assess factors associated with early marriage among young women in Blora, Central Java, Indonesia. Subjects and Method: A cross sectional study was carried out in Blora, Central Java, from September to October 2019. A sample of 200 married female was selected randomly. The dependent variable was early marriage. The independent variables were intention, attitude, parental income, peer support, teacher support, culture, female value, subjective norm, and perceived behavior control. Results: The risk of early marriage increased with supportive culture toward early marriage (OR= 5.34; 95% CI= 1.12 to 25.34; p= 0.035), negative female value (OR= 5.27; 95% CI= 1.04 to 26.72; p= 0.045), supportive attitude toward early marriage (OR= 10.2; 95% CI= 1.99 to 52.8; p= 0.005), and weak perceived behavior control (OR= 33.8; 95% CI= 4.18 to 273.67; p= 0.001). The risk of early marriage decreased with peer support toward delayed marriage (OR= 0.09; 95% CI= 0.01 to 0.50; p= 0.006), high parental income (OR= 0.16; 95% CI= 0.03 to 0.87; p= 0.034), parental support toward delayed marriage (OR= 0.07; 95% CI= 0.01 to 0.38; p= 0.002), positive female value (OR= 0.09; 95% CI= 0.01 to 0.45; p= 0.003), weak intention toward early marriage (OR= 0.19; 95% CI= 0.04 to 0.91; p= 0.039), and weak subjective norm (OR= 0.10; 95% CI= 0.01 to 0.59; p= 0.011). Conclusion: The risk of early marriage increases with supportive culture toward early marriage, negative female value, supportive attitude toward early marriage, and weak perceived behavior control. The risk of early marriage decreases with peer support toward delayed marriage, high parental income, parental support toward delayed marriage, positive female value, weak intention toward early marriage, and weak subjective norm.

Abstract:
The BALIKA project evaluated whether three skills-building approaches to empower girls can effectively delay the age at marriage among girls aged 12–18 in parts of Bangladesh where child marriage rates are at their highest. BALIKA results show that programs that educate girls, build their skills for modern livelihoods and engage their communities can delay child marriage and produce better health, educational and social outcomes for girls. This brief summarizes the project's endline results.
