Familieret: ægteskab, separation og skilsmisse

The probable place of the origins of humanity, the African continent constitutes a regional laboratory of comparative law, among the richest on the planet. For the legal comparatist it has everything to offer: the earliest possible origins of law and legal systems; a remarkable plethora of ethnic identities and affiliations; an impressive history of customary and theological laws; the experience of being practitioners and subjects of colonial experience; the purveyors and recipients of alien and competitive laws and legal systems within Africa; objects of Christian and Islamic proselytizing; the legal impact of slavery; and the challenges of decolonization and independence, to mention but some of the contextual and direct impacts upon legal development on the African continent. The legal systems of most African countries are influenced by varied sources of law, foreign and domestic. These foreign laws may be of English, French, Portuguese, or German origin and may have been impacted by Christianity and Islam. These external influences have significantly affected how African legal systems are organized today. Yet, Africa's pre-colonial heterogenous customary laws, institutions and religions persist. The present volume brings together comparatists from eight African jurisdictions who explore legal traditions and change in that most fundamental domain of comparative jurisprudence: family law, with particular reference to marriage and divorce. Recommendations are made for legislative change in key domains to comply with international obligations and to improve the quality of family legal relations. xiv, 567 pp.

Recent legislative changes in England and Wales have eroded children's ability to exercise their article 12 UNCRC rights to information, consultation and representation when parents separate. However, children's voices may be heard through child-inclusive mediation (CIM). Considered from a children's rights perspective, this book provides a critical socio-legal account of CIM practice. It draws on in-depth interviews with relationship professionals, mediators, parents and children, to consider the experiences, risks and benefits of CIM. It investigates obstacles to greater uptake of CIM and its role in improving children's wellbeing and agency. Exploring the culture and practice changes necessary for a more routine application of CIM, the book demonstrates how reconceptualising CIM through a children's rights framework could help to address barriers and improve outcomes for children.

Er skilsmisse nødvendigvis en katastrofe eller kan vi faktisk skilles godt? Hvis vi altså vil? Opbrud er et filosofisk favntag med vigtigheden af det at skilles - skilles godt og i tide. Et favntag med skilsmissen som fænomen og som personlig erfaring. Som sådan både en analyse af de almenmenneskelige grundfænomener, der gennemleves i en skilsmisseproces, men også en levende og personlig skildring af et for en tid lettere fortumlet og siden genvundet familieliv. Klassiske begreber som angst, ensomhed, forelskelse, kærlighed og livskvalitet, såvel som mere tidstypiske begreber som forbrugsidentitet, Tinder, mål, midler og nærvær sammenvæves med hverdagens trivialiteter og opbrudsfasens udfordringer og udforskes med udblik til såvel små som store litterære og filosofiske værker. Illustreret af Fritz Bornstück.Sebastian Rind er cand. mag i filosofi og moderne litteraturhistorie med speciale i Søren Kierkegaards forfatterskab i lyset af nyere engelsk og amerikansk filosofi. Sidenhen selvstændig iværksætter.

Slaves, mistresses, concubines - the English courts have used these terms to describe polygamous wives in the past, but are they still seen this way today? Using a critical postcolonial feminist lens, this book provides a contextualized exploration of English legal responses to polygamy. Through the legacies of British imperialism, the book shows how attitudes to polygamy are shaped by indifference and hostility towards its participants. This goes beyond the law, as shown by the stories of women shared throughout the book negotiating their identities and relationships in the UK today. Through its analysis, the book demonstrates how polygamy and polygamous wives are subjected to imperialist and orientalist discourses which dehumanise them for practising a relationship that has existed for millennia.
