Mapping Alimony: From Status To Contract And Beyond, Gaytri Kachroo
Mapping Alimony: From Status To Contract And Beyond, Gaytri Kachroo
The University of New Hampshire Law Review
[Excerpt] “With the introduction of no-fault divorce, one spouse could unilaterally petition for divorce, in most states, by demonstrating a period of separation or the impossibility of reconciliation. The possibility that a marriage can be dissolved without a showing of fault has obliterated the need to seek consent from the other spouse contesting it. This can preclude the need for a mutually designed financial arrangement. Courts now play a greater role in such financial arrangements and are more likely to conform such financial arrangements to statutory standards. From state to state, despite the prevalence of such conforming by courts, resulting …
Progress And Progression In Family Law, Martha Albertson Fineman
Progress And Progression In Family Law, Martha Albertson Fineman
Faculty Articles
The process and nature of change in our family formation seems unlikely to be derailed. The policy question for those concerned with the institution of the family in today's world should not be how we can resuscitate marriage and thus save society, but rather how we can support all individuals who create intimate, caring relationships, regardless of the form of those relationships. Continued inattention to the social and economic dislocations and the emerging family needs produced in the wake of changes in family formation can be disastrous, not only to individual families, but also to society.
Of particular importance for …
Why Marriage?, Martha Albertson Fineman
Why Marriage?, Martha Albertson Fineman
Faculty Articles
Reflection on the prospect of varied, individualized possibilities for the meaning of marriage suggests, that in order to answer the question "why marriage?" we must first consider "what marriage?" or more succinctly, "what is marriage?" Questioning what marriage actually is calls attention to the institution's individualized and malleable nature. By contrast, a focus on "why marriage" highlights the societal function and rationale for the institution. I will discuss each question-the "what" as well as the "why" of marriage.
The Economics Of Dowry: Causes And Effects Of An Indian Tradition, Tonushree Jaggi
The Economics Of Dowry: Causes And Effects Of An Indian Tradition, Tonushree Jaggi
University Avenue Undergraduate Journal of Economics
I argue that dowries exist because of a combination of two reasons. First, there is an excess supply of women in the Indian marriage market that results in the use of dowry as an equilibrating mechanism. Secondly, a differential in the patterns of human capital accumulation of men and women have led to a larger positive benefit from marriage for women than for men, the net difference of which is theoretically equivalent to the amount of the dowry. Both these explanations for the existence of dowry are fundamentally grounded in the powerful social and cultural ideologies of marriage held by …
