"You are a child and this is not your business": Decision-making on child marriage in Sindh, Pakistan.

Young people in Pakistan face challenges such as child marriage, which have adverse consequences on their education, employment, health and overall well-being. We conducted interviews (26) and focus group discussions (12) with young people (15 to 24 years) and community stakeholders to understand how child marriage is perceived by them and to gain insight into the decision-making regarding marriage of youth in Sindh, Pakistan. Study findings show that many young people wish to marry later, but recognize that child marriage is used as a protective strategy to cope with poverty and prevent sexual activity prior to marriage. Young people are expected to obey elders and young women are relegated to domestic roles which limit their decision-making about marriage. Young people and parents who are educated seem to have more negotiating power in delaying marriage than those with little or no education. Our results suggest that interventions should focus on expanding education and livelihood opportunities for young women while changing social norms through parental engagement and youth empowerment.

Big Data Analysis and Research of Guangdong Youth's Marriage Views Using K-means Clustering and SEM Model

Starting from the temporary intimate activities or services represented by the popular “lovers for a day” recently, this paper explored the value on love and marriage of the youth group in the course of social individualization to mine the love and marriage features of the youth group in the second modernity. This thesis further excavated the individualized characteristics and love and marriage dimensions of the youth group using the K-means clustering analysis, the synthetic evaluation model, the SEM model and other methods. Research found that “lovers for a day” were the modern individualization trend and the products of the compromise of the traditional view of marriage and love at home. The “fast-food” culture prevails for the moment. With a small social circle, a fairly large number of youth attempt to make acquaintance with more opposite sex through temporary intimate services and activities. Moreover, youth have a certain cognitive bias towards themselves and the opposite sex on account of the diversity of information and convenience of information acquisition. Finally, youth who recognize love and marriage and pursue a higher value of life are more likely to tolerate sexual love and get married. This paper believed that we should play the role of communities and public opinions to create a pleasant social atmosphere for the right-age youth group; besides, we should mould a fine family tradition; finally, youth individuals should also improve their self-cultivation and correct their attitude towards love.

Eighteen female informants were interviewed, consisting of girls married before 18 years old during the 1990-2020 periods. The data were also collected from several vital informants: community figures, parents, and married couples. This study concluded that women who married at a young age still consider early marriage normal and acceptable from a socio-cultural perspective. For the local community, marrying their child at a very young age will guarantee labor availability, psychological security in old age and strengthen family bonds.

This perspective is also influenced by the existing local socio-cultural values that place marriage as a solution to socio-economic problems and a simple procedure for marrying young through marriage dispensation.

Easy love and hard marriage. Love and marriage of Chinese youth in the digital era

L’amour et le mariage sont importants dans les stades de développement de la vie de l’être humain, en lien direct avec son bonheur personnel et la stabilité de sa famille. Depuis la « Politique de réforme et d’ouverture » en 1978, la société chinoise connaît une transformation rapide. Non seulement les opinions des gens sur le mariage et l’amour sont de plus en plus diversifiées, mais leur autonomie dans le mariage et l’amour a également été considérablement renforcée. Cette transformation s’est encore intensifiée avec l’influence de la numérisation, en particulier chez les jeunes, car ils sont plus exposés à Internet et ont désormais plus d’occasions d’approcher les gens pour comprendre leurs amoureux potentiels et/ou partenaires conjugaux, ce qui était impossible auparavant en raison des limitations physiques. Malgré l’existence de certains éléments avancés par les jeunes générations dans leur réflexion sur le mariage, la persistance de l’obéissance à l’opinion de leurs parents, qui est largement conservatrice, ne peut être ignorée, et plus vraisemblablement cette dernière reste la règle. En outre, il existe également un dilemme entre la « condition matérielle » et « l’amour » auquel sont confrontés les jeunes Chinois pas moins que les générations plus âgées. Par conséquent, dans l’article, nous analyserons la situation de l’amour et du mariage des jeunes Chinois, plus précisément, quelles sont les difficultés auxquelles ils sont confrontés, quels groupes de jeunes ont plus de mal à se marier et leur influence sociale dans l’ère du numérique ?

Human Trafficking in North Sulawesi Indonesia

The aims of this research are to identify the factors that cause human trafficking, to describe the map of origin region and destination of delivery, to analyze the modes used by the traffickers. The method used is the Qualitative Descriptive Method. The results showed that there were seven main factors causing human trafficking in North Sulawesi. Those were lifestyle, lack of knowledge and capacity, potential employability as commercial sex workers, demand of commercial sex workers, youth marriage and limited employment in formal sectors and secullarism. Most of the victims came from Manado City, Minahasa, South Minahasa and North Minahasa Regency. The largest destination areas of the victims were Papua, West Papua, Southeast Sulawesi and Batam (the Province of Riau Islands). The modes used by the perpetrators are persuading victims to work outside the area with high incomes, cheated with debt bondage, offering scholarship programs, adopted as children, fraudulent and abducting. The efforts that need to be done to eliminate human trafficking are changing the lifestyles from consumptive to productive by increasing self-resilience (changing the paradigm of thinking to be realistic and not regarding material wealth as a source of self-esteem or avoiding hedonism) and improving self-capacity through continuous knowledge enhancement. Local governments need to enlighten the publics through various programs/activities such as socialization with emphasis on human trafficking modes, to train of members of the task force on prevention of human traffics, to cooperate and to form partnerships with other institutions and local/regional governments, to build cooperation on the prevention and handling of human traffics with non-government institutions, to break the links of sexual trafficking and other types of unlawful businesses, to prevent young marriages to stimulate job creations, especially in the formal sectors and to increase the roles of parents and education institutions
