Marriage in Literature

Summary The surface which marriages customarily present to the worldis often misleading. Indeed, one of the central paradoxes inthis most intimate of relationships is that although almosteverybody has some personal and immediate experience of it,and although there is a vast array of social research that haslooked at marriage from the outside, we do not in fact knowmuch—other than from our personal experience—aboutmarriage from the inside. As Mount (1982), in a review of theexperience of marriage and the family in history, comments: It is the essence of marriage that it is private and apart fromthe rest of society. Its ‘selfishness’ or ‘exclusiveness’is not its undertone but its heart and soul (p. 188).     

贞烈公主与待嫁闺秀

Predicting Gay Affirmative Practice from the Theory of Planned Behavior

This study utilized the theory of planned behavior to examine individual intentions to engage in gay affirmative practice among aging-focused professionals (N = 83) in the Midwestern United States. Participants completed self-report measures of perceived agency norms and individual attitudes related to the treatment of gay men and lesbians, intentions to provide gay affirmative care, and perceived behavioral control. Attitudes, norms and perceived behavioral control were examined as predictors of intentions; attitudes of individual aging-service professionals emerged as the strongest predictor. Results indicated that affirmative attitudes within the agency may be important in predicting intentions to provide this type of care.     

婚姻趣识种种

爱情与人体内的化学元素刺激内分泌有直接关系在美国 ,每１００对配偶中有５０对是以离婚收场的 ,离婚率居世界之冠。婚姻果真是爱情的坟墓吗？那么爱情到底又是什么呢？这个问题当然是仁者见仁 ,智者见智。据获得美国“人类工程学”博士头衔的土耳其科学家佐嘉认为 ,爱情其实与感情无关 ,却与人体内的化学元素的刺激内分泌作用有直接关系 ,这种产生爱情激素的化学物叫苯乙胺。他说 ,爱情是人体脑部的荷尔蒙化学分子 ,经过一连串运动后产生的一种结果 ,只要脑部功能正常 ,就会分泌爱情激素 ,产生所谓的七情六欲 ,因此无论年龄高低 ,每个人都…

探索新的关系和生活模式 ——关于成都男同性恋伴侣关系和生活实践的研究

这些年来,李银河提交同性婚姻提案的努力,将同性恋伴侣关系和家庭生活引入了公众视野,但国内学术研究对此尚无涉及。基于对成都“同志”社区的实地研究,本文详细考察了男同性恋伴侣关系和家庭生活的具体实践、追求平等关系、反思现有婚姻制度,以及争取社会承认的努力。研究强调中国社会中的同性之间的亲密关系正在转型,同性恋伴侣关系开始挣脱占据主导地位的异性恋亲属体系,成为一种可供选择的家庭生活模式。同时,借鉴西方近期关于“酷儿”家庭的理论和实践,文章讨论了同性恋伴侣关系对于主流社会和亲属制度的启示,呼吁在制度上给予这样的“草根”实践以更多的承认。     

婚姻形式与财产制度——兼论加里·S·贝克尔对婚姻形式的解释

婚姻状况与心理疾病

现存的文献中有大量关于良好的人际关系促进健康的研究。这些研究表明,社会孤立是造成病症和死亡的一个重要因素。在统计 学意义上,其作用等同于吸烟、高血压、高血脂等。对成人而言,婚姻是至关重要的人际关系。在面临各种严重疾病时,已婚成人的死亡率要低于同等条件下的未婚者。相比     

写在“光棍节”之际 给结婚一个理由

11月11日,因为拥有4个1而被大家称为"光棍节"。这个用数字发明的非传统节日,由上世纪90年代在南京大学校园兴起,至今,"光棍节"被人们熟知,并由中国风靡到世界。其实,从中国传到西方的不只是"光棍节",带有中国时代特色的词汇如"剩男剩女"早已收录进英语词典。"脱光"、"裸婚"这些近年来流行的热词,诙谐生动地反映出了中国人的婚恋状态。CNN援引中国社会科学院最近得出的研究结果称,到2020年,中国将有超过2400万名男性面临找不到伴侣的窘况。英国《经济学家》杂志称其为

婚姻与纵向社会流动--上海市民的婚姻观念

社会实证 “门当户对”是我国封建社会择偶的重 要标准。所谓”门当户对”,是指同一阶层内 部的通婚。中国数千年来婚姻之权皆操之于父母,家庭的成立,不是基于男女两性自觉的恋爱,而是“或为门阀所限,或为金钱所动,或误信于媒约,听命于父母”。这样的婚姻关系,“不成于人而成于物,不因于     

Marriage among the Gypsies of Turkey

Despite the fact that Gypsies have always been traveling communities, it is difficult for them to preserve their own customs and traditions forever. In the light of studies and research about Gypsies so far, conclusions could be formed that the first and foremost maintaining factor is marriage that can be idealized and practiced differently among Gypsies around the world. This work introduces the image and practice of marriage of the Gypsies of Turkey. It has been found out that endogamy is especially very common among the Gypsies of Turkey since it is considered to be the only way of protecting their communal life. Within the general concept of the endogamic marriage, these types have been discussed under such headings as “purchasing,” “exchanging,” and “abducting.” Other issues which have been raised in the study, are polygamy and divorce which are also very common among the Turkish Gypsies. Finally, the significance of marriage for the families and having children as a result have been analyzed.

Student School Engagement Among Sexual Minority Students: Understanding the Contributors to Predicting Academic Outcomes

ABSTRACT

Hierarchical multiple regression is used to examine whether student school engagement predicts grade point average (GPA) and fear-based truancy among 315 sexual minority youth aged 13 to 24 years. Results indicate that student school engagement is a significant predictor of GPA, and this relationship is strongest in the presence of a gay–straight alliance. Having an adult ally at school is associated with a decrease in fear-based truancy, while student school engagement predicts a decrease in fear-based truancy only for youth who have higher levels of subjective fear at school. Implications for future research and for practice among school-based helping professionals are discussed.     

美国普通法婚姻制度对我国事实婚姻制度的启示

美国普通法婚姻相当于中国的事实婚姻,从兴起到现在经历了一百多年的历史,从普遍承认到由于各种原因逐渐废除历经多次法官和学者的讨论,现在保留下来的普通法婚姻规则既尊重普通法婚姻存在的现实,又能有效防止普通法婚姻带来的弊端,是一个相对成熟的法律规则,也是协调国家干预和个人自治的一个良好范例,在一定程度上对我国事实婚姻制度的完善具有借鉴意义.借鉴美国的普通法婚姻规则,我国应该打破现行僵化的事实婚姻认定制度,规定更加灵活、具体和尊重现实的认定规则;为了更好地尊重当事人的私人自治,该事实婚姻认定制度应该是一个可辩解的推定,可以被当事人通过证据推翻;此外,还应规定请求确认事实婚姻的时效限制,以解决司法效率问题和防止可能的欺诈性诉讼.     

气候变化与人权：何种温室气体排放权

气候变化会对基本人权,如生命权、健康权、食物权、住房权、财产权、文化权、迁移定居权、安全权等,造成许多严重的伤害。可从生存排放权、人均排放权和发展排放权三个方面对温室气体排放权进行分析与考查。在保护人民的气候权利方面,国家和政府负有不可推托的责任。在当前的背景下,提出气候权利问题的直接目的就是保护发展中国家与弱势群体的利益,并促使发达国家和富人承担更多的减排义务。     

媒妁起源考论

媒妁文化在中国文化史和社会生活史上源远流长且殊具特色.媒妁的缘起,是为适应古代社会婚姻制度变革和人类文明进步的时代要求产生的,而不仅局限于经济因素.媒妁的肇始当在对偶婚向专偶婚过渡的父系氏族社会时期,而非专偶婚(即一夫一妻制)形成之后.其起源阶段在考古学文化中大致相当于从山东大汶口文化晚期至夏文化早期,即约在公元前2500年至前2100年之间.
