Marriage and family customs of the Finno-Ugric peoples of the Volga region: legal and anthropological analysis (late XIX – early XX century)

Introduction. The institutions of marriage and family seem to be an integral component of the traditional livelihood of peoples, reflecting their history, features of life and activities. The Finno-Ugric ethnic groups, over the centuries of their existence, have formed original layers of marriage and family traditions, many elements of which have been preserved to this day. The article provides a comparative legal and anthropological analysis of the marriage and family customs of the Finno-Ugric peoples of the Volga region. Materials and Methods. The article is based on the literature, archival materials on the state of marriage and family relations of the Finno-Ugric peoples of the Volga region in the late XIX–XX centuries. It is based on a legal-anthropological methodology, which includes both relevant theoretical approaches and research methods of collecting materials. The comparative method makes it possible to compare certain elements of the institutions of marriage and family among individual Finno-Ugric peoples of the Volga region, to identify their common and special features. The hermeneutic method implies a deeper penetration into the logic of human legal thinking in the study of legal customs. Results and Discussion. In the social life of the Finno-Ugric peoples, family rituals and customs related to marriage and wedding played an important role and family life. Great importance was attached to domestic deities. Many traditional features have been preserved in the regulation of marriage and family relations for a long time, which was due to the slow pace of the formation of market relations, patriarchal features of the family way of life, and the strength of family and kinship ties. Wedding ceremonies were characterized by great complexity and diversity. They were connected with different stages of the wedding, marking the transition of a young man and girl to a new social status; they were supposed to contribute to a more successful implementation of this event, to sanction it in the eyes of relatives and fellow villagers. Conclusion. The Finno-Ugric ethnic groups of the Volga region have developed many similar features of traditional culture and way of life, which indicates the traditions of interpenetration and interaction. Despite the common things and the general similarity of customs in the sphere of marriage and family relations, peoples also have distinctive properties, features of worldview, customary law, and other socionormative relations.

‘The Land is Asking for History’. Marriages, Land, and Post-Slavery in Southern Benin

ABSTRACT This article analyses the recent evolution of marriage relations between descendants of free and enslaved persons in Benin. It shows that slave ancestry is connected to tenure insecurity. This insecurity arises because land occupied by the descendants of slaves can be claimed by the descendants of the people who owned their ancestors. At the same time, such claims are blunted by intermarriage between these groups, which weakens the position of the descendants of slave-owners. As the memory of the exact arrangements that characterized past marriages between enslaved and freeborn fades away, marriage and kinship ties with descendants of former dependants put pressure on elite landowners to accept a degree of land redistribution in favour of relatives whom they perceive as ranking below themselves. In order to understand land conflicts in the present, it is essential to analyse the mixed-status marriages of the past.

IMOVINSKO PRAVNI POLOŽAJ ŽENE U BRAKU NA PRIJELAZU IZ 19. U 20. STOLJEĆU: PREMA SADRŽAJU PRIVATNOPRAVNIH ISPRAVA

Drawing up marriage contracts in order to achieve the autonomy of the parties with regard to property relations in marriage in the period after the entry into force of the Austrian General Civil Code has become a common practice. A very detailed normative framework for the regulation of individual institutes of marital law left enough space to regulate property relations between spouses in accordance with their requirements and with the purpose of preserving the economic interests of the family and each partner. In the period in which a man took over the function of managing marital property, and the position of a married woman was marked by patterns of desirable behaviour, a number of property dispositions were recorded with the purpose of strengthening a woman's position in society during marriage, but also securing her status in the case of termination of marriage. Guided by the idea of modernizing the social position of women in the period after the entry into force of the Austrian Civil Code, the basic purpose of this research is to determine the position of women in terms of property rights acquired on the basis of private legal documents. This refers to the institutes included in the content of marriage contracts preserved in the State Archives in Osijek and the effects of wills, which often contained marriage provisions, but also those wills whose creators often sought to provide property protection for poor women by establishing foundations. Available documents come from different legal areas of urban (Osijek) and rural (Baranja) areas, which makes them a valuable material for a comparative analysis of various issues, from applicable law to the effects of its application. Therefore, this research uses a legal-historical method and a comparison of the obtained results to try to determine the effects of marriage law and the impact of contractual dispositions on the economic and legal strengthening of the position of women in the society in the second half of the 19th century.

The phenomenon of conscious childlessness in the conditions of transformation of family and marriage relations

One of the modern trends of Russian society is the conscious refusal of childbearing, called conscious childlessness, which is gaining popularity at the present time. The transformation of the institution of the family and family-marriage relations contributes to the revision of traditional family values, which inevitably lead to the emergence of a system of individual values with the possibility of personal self-realization, forming in people's minds stable ideas about the decline in the social significance of the values of childbearing and parenthood, associated, among other things, with significant changes in the gender display, determining the nature and extent of conscious rejection of childbearing by gender, revealing the extent of the spread of this social phenomenon in the conditions of modern society.In many ways, this is facilitated by the level of education of modern women, who, along with men, have equal opportunities to achieve a high level of professional and career growth, forming stable ideas about the importance of personal self-realization over the value of childbearing, which entails a serious transformation of the reproductive behavior of a modern woman focused on giving up having children. At the same time, the nature of social attitudes and the motivation of conscious childlessness have pronounced individual characteristics and depend on the value preferences of the individual. The purpose of this study is caused by a serious scientific interest in the problem of conscious childlessness in modern conditions, which is the result of deep transformational processes in the field of family and marriage relations.In accordance with this goal, the following tasks are set: to analyze the value system that influences the formation of the phenomenon of conscious childlessness in modern conditions; to consider the main reasons for the conscious refusal of childbearing; to identify the degree of influence of professional growth of a person on the choice of conscious childlessness at the present stage.It should be noted that the phenomenon of conscious childlessness does not always cause negative emotions on the part of society, forming a loyal attitude to childless families, as a manifestation of a certain social norm reflecting the new format of family and marriage relations in the conditions of transformation of the institution of the modern family.

Relational Communication and Relationship Qualities among College Daters during the Transition Back to Campus following the COVID-19 Lockdown

ABSTRACT This study examines college dating partners’ experiences during the transition back to school in the year following the COVID-19 lockdown period. Though most public universities re-opened their doors in the Fall of 2020, strict safety protocols changed the ways in which college students interacted with their peers, significant others, and institutions, laying the groundwork for changes to the relationship environment. 390 students currently in a dating relationship completed an online survey during the 2020–2021 academic year. Following previous research on married relationships, hypotheses predicted that engagement in transition processing communication is associated with more positive relationship qualities for dating partners. With some exceptions, results suggest that participants’ engagement in transition processing communication, as well as their perceptions of their partner’s engagement, are associated with decreases in relational uncertainty and improvements in interdependence during periods of disruption to the relationship environment.

Coping With Parental Pressure to Get Married: Perspectives From Chinese “Leftover Women”

Postponed marriage has become a trend in China’s major cities over the last decade. However, due to persistent traditional gender role expectations, women who remain single in their late 20s and beyond still face significant parental pressure to get married and are the subjects of negative societal discourse. Through semi-structured interviews with 30 never-married Chinese professional women who are white-collar workers based in Beijing, this research explored the parental pressure these women faced, their response to the pressure, and their own perceptions on marriage and romantic relationships. The results demonstrate the two generations’ different viewpoints on marriage, romantic relationships, and gender roles, as well as young women’s aspirations for autonomy and independence.

Division of property in case of divorce

The formalization of a marriage gives rise to new rights and responsibilities for the husband and wife. Today in Ukraine there is a large number of divorces, which, in turn, is a negative phenomenon. This raises problematic issues regarding the distribution of jointly acquired property during the cohabitation of a married couple. It is not always possible for a spouse who has expressed a desire to dissolve a marriage to voluntarily agree on the division of property without being involved in a court case. Litigation over the division of property acquired in marriage is a very popular practice and is often used in real life, as the ex-husband and wife cannot agree among themselves on who will get what property and in what quantity. Therefore, this issue requires detailed and extended study, interpretation and analysis by scientists.
 Examine in detail the process of division of jointly acquired property in marriage, provide answers to problematic questions related to joint ownership, analyze controversial situations that often occur in the practice of resolving family disputes over the division of jointly acquired property during marriage.
 Thus, the process of division of property between spouses is a complex, laborious and long process that requires awareness of the law. It is also worth noting that there are certain problems in the legal regulation of the division of joint joint ownership, and they require detailed analysis and study by scholars.
 With divorce, that is, the termination of marriage relations, both by the legislation of Ukraine and in the regulatory acts and legislation of the EU, personal property of the spouses is not subject to separation. If a man and wife when breaking marriage entered a separate residence mode or one of them went bankrupt, the community of property may be suspended. In addition, according to the legislation of the EU, the allocation of particles in the joint property of his wife and husband can be accomplished in recognizing one of them incapacitated, in case of deprivation of one of them to own certain property, use and dispose of a certain property or inappropriate management of this property.
 After divorce, a property relationship arises between a man and a woman, which is the main issue in the study of the peculiarities of family relations after divorce and termination of marriage.

Marriage, Gender and Demographic Change: Managing Fertility in State-Socialist Poland

This paper explores fertility management practices in state-socialist Poland and investigates post-war demographic change through the lenses of gender and modernization. Using personal narratives from oral histories and memoirs, we examine reproductive decision-making processes from the 1940s to the 1980s, focusing on motivations, norms, and the means employed to achieve desired family size. Our analysis reveals the ambiguous nature of both modernization and women's emancipation in regard to reproduction. We argue that acceptance of the two-child model and the need to effectively manage fertility increased in Poland through the second half of the twentieth century, but was highly dependent on levels of spousal communication and equality. Personal narratives demonstrate how social pressure shaped women's reproductive choices, and how at times these choices were considerably limited by male violence and domination. As our analysis shows, gender relations in marriage and the modernization of fertility management in state-socialist Poland were deeply interrelated.

La (in)visibilidad de las mujeres en los textos didácticos del judaísmo clásico

On the basis of the hypothesis that the academic texts of the sages from classical Judaism (1st-8th centuries CE) form part of a restricted sphere, as opposed to other texts of later compilation, such as the so-called Minor Treatises of the Talmud –oriented more towards a public sphere with a didactic intention–, we will read one of these treatises in order to review the visibility (or invisibility) of women in its contents and arguments. One of these ethical texts, Kallah Rabbati, has been selected for being a treatise that orders daily issues that affect men and women, such as sexual relations in marriage, as well as other ethical considerations on human behaviour. Through the text we will analyse the role that women may have played in the academic sphere, in order to analyze how they are presented in the discourse; their possible role as transmitters or receivers of these didactic texts of classical Judaism.

Structural equation modelling via path analysis was performed. Results The sample comprised individuals who were predominantly men (54.6%), and that reported being satisfied or highly satisfied with life, marriage, friendships, and family relationships. Participants with lower neuroticism scores had higher satisfaction with life, marriage, friendships, and family relationships. Greater satisfaction with marriage and friendships was directly associated with better social support.

Illegitimate Fertility in the Urals During the Late 19th and Early 20th Centuries

Out-of-wedlock births are one of the important aspects of the demographic history in late imperial Russia. The percentage of children born to unwed mothers in the Russian Empire during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries was lower than the general average in European countries. However, in the specific context of the Russian demographic order, with earlier age at marriage and more universal nuptiality than in Europe generally, the study of out-of-wedlock births and especially their spatial distribution, acquires special significance. This work is aimed at studying the dynamics of out-of-wedlock births in Perm province in the decades around 1900. The authors pay particular attention to out-of-wedlock births in the city of Ekaterinburg, using official statistics and the “Ural Population Project” database, URAPP based on parish registers with vital events in five city parishes. The authors reconstruct the dynamics of out-of-wedlock births in each of the twelve Perm province counties, reflecting a general downward trend, especially in counties containing a significant proportion of Old Believers. It is established that the average level of illegitimate births among the rural population was 4%, and in cities — 9%. The out-of-wedlock birth rate increased during times of wars and social upheavals, especially in cities differing from parish to parish. In St Epiphany parish of Ekaterinburg, the illegitimate birth rate reached 41% during the famine of 1892. Concurrently, at least 11% of the women, including some from relatively wealthy families, baptised up to seven “illegitimate” children in the parish. This gives grounds to perceive the phenomenon of out-of-wedlock births not only because of the unfortunate circumstances for young women, but also as a sign of modernisation in the sphere of family and marriage relations, slowed down by archaic legislation.
