Abstract:

Existing literature and much of the research on marriage and family experiences have been largely and commonly problem-based and deficit-oriented. Even though some strength-focused approaches to the study of marriages and families have been undertaken and have gained momentum there is still much empirical work needed in order for us to understand the complexity and intricacies of what constitutes a quality marital relationship. In this qualitative research study, I analysed how quality of marriage is conceptualised and understood by Malays within a Malaysian context. I undertook the research

This research aimed to undertake an investigation into the question of whether after divorce, in the matrilineal customary law marriage in Malawi, women's rights are severely violated. The study showed causes of divorce, how proceedings are done, how issues of property are handled, how the issue of custody of children and maintenance are also handled. All this was weighed against the constitutional provisions and international law.

Abstract:

Authority as it operates in the daily lives of married women in Gcaleka society is reinforced and maintained by a body of avoidances which women need to observe during their married lives. Avoidances constitute part of the control system in the society whereby wives are being 'kept in their place'. Avoidances do not only restrict her, but also safeguard her position and her interests. Lines of authority emerge through the process of interaction; the structure reveals itself as avoidances are acted out in time and space.

Abstract:

The focus of this research was to obtain, specifically, data on the marriage customs of the Druze in the Shouf Mountains of southeastern Lebanon. Ten Druze informants were selected and classified according to sex, age, marital status and religious status (sheik/sheika). A detailed questionnaire was designed to use during the interviews with these informants. However, after two interviews, it became apparent that a variable questionnaire was necessary to take advantage of the new, richly-detailed, cultural information that emerged with each informant. New questions were developed, in the field,

Abstract:

這篇論文以出土青銅禮器為主要研究對象，結合傳世文獻，嘗試對西周到春秋時期周人貴族階層的婚姻加以討論。鑒於婚姻在周代禮儀制度當中具有相當突出的地位，考察婚姻在一個以宗族為主體、以禮儀為規範的社會當中如何運作和演變，就成了本文最為關切的問題。依據「西周」和「春秋」的分期，論文被分為「上編」和「下編」兩部分進行撰寫。在整理和考察出土文獻中所記載的婚姻關係之後，文章著重討論了西周貴族婚姻所奠基的社會和政治基礎，由此揭示了西周時期兩大貴族群體在婚姻方面的不同習慣與特點。儘管在西周時期，一系列植根於獨特政治和社會土壤的婚姻原則已經開始形成，但隨著宗周覆滅，春秋時期已無法在原有的政治、社會機制上維持周人貴族固有的婚姻習慣。即便在諸侯國地區延續和維持了一部分西周的婚姻原則及婚姻禮儀，但這種維持實際為了應對新的時代局勢，其中依然包含了許多對舊有婚姻制度和禮儀的改造。最後，通過討論在「禮儀」框架下兩個時代在安置婚姻事務方面所呈現出來的不同特點，本論文進而試圖對「禮儀」在這一階段婚姻活動中所起到的作用進行回顧。

Abstract:

This project examines marriage and residence patterns on the Grand Ronde Reservation between 1856 and the early 1900s. It demonstrates that indigenous cultural patterns continued despite a colonial imagination that refused to see them. Members of the Confederated Tribes of the Grand Ronde continued to live in family groups much as they had in the pre-reservation era. They continued to exhibit patterns of marriage and kinship that were described in the ethnographies and by the earliest explorers in the Oregon area.

Historians have long connected the emergence of the early modern state with increased efforts to discipline populations. Allying with religious authorities to monitor private lives, states sought to limit sexual activity to marriage and to support patriarchal authority in order to create orderly societies and obedient subjects. Governments legitimated their increased intrusions into people's lives by arguing that it was their responsibility to bring about moral reformation in their subjects, but their new interest was also rooted in achieving more direct control over individuals for the purp

Others are the low status of the wife in the domestic context; endogamy rules based on consanguinity; and payment of bride price. However, the two traditions differ in important areas. For example, the Ashantis follow kinship system based on matrilineal descent, succession and inheritance and the girl child is preferred.
