Abstract

Interfaith marriage is a visible and often controversial part of American life - and one with a significant history. This is the first historical study of religious diversity in the home. Anne Rose draws a vivid picture of interfaith marriages over the century before World War I, their problems and their social consequences. She shows how mixed-faith families became agents of change in a culture moving toward pluralism. Following them over several generations, Rose tracks the experiences of twenty-six interfaith families who recorded their thoughts and feelings in letters, journals, and memoirs. She examines the decisions husbands and wives made about religious commitment, their relationships with the extended families on both sides, and their convictions. (Harvard UP)

Abstract

"This study explores the experience of intermarried couples - marriages with Jewish and non-Jewish partners - and their children in Vienna after Germany's seizure of Austria in 1938"-- "Evan Burr Bukey explores the experience of intermarried couples - marriages with Jewish and non-Jewish partners - and their children in Vienna after Germany's seizure of Austria in 1938. These families coped with changing regulations that disrupted family life, pitted relatives against each other, and raised profound questions about religious, ethnic, and national identity. Bukey finds that although intermarried couples lived in a state of fear and anxiety, many managed to mitigate, delay, or even escape Nazi sanctions. Drawing on extensive archival research, his study reveals how hundreds of them pursued ingenious strategies to preserve their assets, to improve their "racial" status, and above all to safeguard the position of their children. It also analyzes cases of intermarried partners who chose divorce as well as persons involved in illicit liaisons with non-Jews. Jews and Intermarriage in Nazi Austria concludes that although most of Vienna's intermarried Jews survived the Holocaust, several hundred Jewish partners were deported to their deaths and children of such couples were frequently subjected to Gestapo harassment"--

Abstract

"This is an excellent and rare exploration of a sensitive religious issue from many perspectives legal, cultural and political. The case studies from Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand portray the important and exciting, yet very difficult, negotiation of Islamic teachings in the changing realities of Southeast Asia, home to the majority of Muslims in the world. Interreligious marriage is an important indicator of good relations between communities in religiously diverse countries. This book will also be of great interest to students and scholars of religious pluralism in a Southeast Asian context, which has not been studied adequately." -Zainal Abidin Bagir, Executive Director, Center for Religious and Cross-cultural Studies (CRCS), Gadjah Mada University, Indonesia

Abstract

Les mariages entre personnes de religion ou de confession différente sont-ils conseillés ou non ? A l'instar de la plupart des religions et confessions, le christianisme et l'islam sont défavorables chacun à sa manière aux mariages dispars et les déconseillent vivement. Leurs " Livres ", coutumes et lois en témoignent clairement. Parmi les chrétiens, les luthériens les permettent plus facilement que les autres confessions. Quant aux calvinistes, ils classent la disparité de culte matrimoniale parmi les quatre causes pouvant conduire au divorce. Pour sa part, l'Eglise catholique considère la disparité de culte comme un empêchement dirimant au mariage, dont on peut cependant obtenir la dispense de l'Ordinaire du lieu. Elle estime que la disparité ne permet pas de remplir la mission propre aux couples chrétiens dans l'Eglise. Dans le cas d'un mariage mixte, elle ne réclame qu'une autorisation de la même hiérarchie ecclésiale, mais, jusqu'à nos jours, elle maintient les mêmes conditions pour l'obtention de la dispense ou de l'autorisation. Les orthodoxes, en l'absence de conciles tenus pour leurs Eglises depuis le grand schisme de 1054, maintiennent la même position intransigeante de l'Eglise primitive, qui dans ses premiers conciles, interdisait catégoriquement tout genre de mariage dispar. En ce qui concerne les musulmans, les divergences de leurs écoles et confessions ne sont pas très importantes au sujet des mariages dispars. Mais une grande discrimination existe entre le droit de la femme et celui de l'homme musulmans. En effet, ce dernier a le droit de choisir son épouse parmi les musulmanes comme parmi celles des " gens du Livre ", tandis que la musulmane n'est autorisée à se marier qu'avec un musulman. Concernant l'éducation religieuse des enfants d'un couple dispar, les chrétiens réclament une éducation chrétienne et les musulmans une éducation musulmane. Ce qui vient d'être brièvement exposé, révèle les difficultés soulevées par les lois chrétiennes et musulmanes, et la complexité de la question des mariages dispars, surtout quand il s'agit d'un mariage islamo-chrétien.

Abstract

Do mixed marriages have a higher risk of ending up in divorce? In the present study, dimensions of six types of heterogamy are taken into account: regarding age, level of education, social status, religious affiliation, ethnicity and social origin. The author uses quantitative methods on two unique data sets: official marriage and divorce registrations and a survey among married and divorced people. In this way, he investigates the influence of mixed marriage on the risk of divorce in the Netherlands. Explanations for this influence, derived from the expected advantages of homogamy, are tested. Possible changes over the course of marriage and over time are investigated. The quality of spouse selection is assessed in the light of mixed marriage as well. (Rozenberg)

Abstract

Que disent les différentes confessions face aux couples mixtes ? Se convertir ou faire cohabiter les deux religions ? Alors quelle cérémonie pour le mariage ? Quel prénom choisir pour son enfant ? Quelle éducation religieuse lui donner ? Et puis, au quotidien, se pose aussi la question des fêtes, des traditions, de la décoration du foyer, de la nourriture... A partir d'une cinquantaine de témoignages de couples mixtes représentant les cinq grandes religions - les trois religions monothéistes, le bouddhisme et l'hindouisme -, dans un style alerte et plein d'esprit, Isabelle Lévy dresse le portrait d'une société bigarrée. Pour le meilleur et pour le pire...
