defining what counts as international is tricky too . a wedding of a local man and a foreign - born bride is easy . but the marriage of two foreigners in a third country sometimes counts and sometimes doesn ' t . trickiest of all is how to treat the marriage of a second - generation immigrant who has citizenship of a host country ( say , the child of a moroccan in france or a mexican in america ) . if such a person marries a native frenchwoman or an american , that usually does not count as international , even though it is an alliance across ethnic lines . perversely , if he marries a girl from his parents ' country of origin , that does count as international—but this is not a marriage across an ethnic divide and may indicate isolation not assimilation .
additionally , many u . s . citizens trying to meet ukrainians using an international marriage broker or dating service have fallen victim to internet scams that have cost them hundreds and sometimes thousands of dollars . you may wish to consider this when deciding to use these types of services .

marriage remains , for the most part , an institution that promotes economic improvement and personal happiness . it also tends to boost social assimilation—the main exception being when a second - generation immigrant weds a girl from a village his parents had left long before . over the next few years , international marriage is likely to continue its quiet upward crawl . governments should protect its victims—but not prevent the process .
now , some 40 years in , the clintons ' marriage has emerged to serve as an example : partnership can take many forms , and sacrifice , while important , needn ' t be absolute .
if you have met , or are thinking about trying to meet , a ukrainian citizen through an international marriage broker or dating service , you should be aware of the realities of getting this person a visa to the united states . although you may intend a visit to the united states just to get acquainted in person , ukrainian citizens associated with marriage brokers and dating services rarely overcome the legal obstacles to obtaining a nonimmigrant visa .
international marriages are common in much of europe , too . calculations by giampaolo lanzieri , an italian demographer , show that in france the proportion of international marriage rose from about 10 % in 1996 to 16 % in 2009 . in germany , the rise is a little lower , from 11 . 3 % in 1990 to 13 . 7 % in 2010 . some smaller countries have much higher levels . nearly half the marriages in switzerland are international ones , up from a third in 1990 . around one in five marriages in sweden , belgium and austria involves a foreign partner .
among recent developments regarding children’s rights are an international call for action to end violence against children and a resolution adopted by the u . n . general assembly on the establishment of a human rights council . [ 57 ]
getting married in ukraine can take from several weeks to several months . both parties applying for marriage must have a legal status in ukraine ( ukrainian citizenship , residency permit , visa , entry stamp in their passport , etc . ) . an application for marriage should be submitted by a couple in person ( or by an authorized third party ) at any state registration and notary service of ukraine . normally , the waiting period is one month from the date of application to the date of marriage registration . according to the law , it is possible to expedite the process due to exigent circumstances . the application is annulled if marriage is not registered within three months of the application .
international marriages are often attacked as exploitative , because they typically take place between an older richer man and a younger , less well - educated woman from a poor country . terrible examples of abuse do exist . yet the evidence suggests that international marriages often last longer than average and that migrant wives come to play important roles in their husband ' s host country .
pope francis has said by the virtue of its very meaning , marriage can only be between a man and a woman .
same - sex marriage is allowed in 23 countries ( nationwide or in parts ) including ireland , the u . s . , spain , and canada . australia is currently preparing a postal survey to gauge the public mood on same - sex marriage .
such arguments seek to exploit a general lack of awareness of existing laws , fueling the fear that such women will find themselves in an invalid marriage not recognized by law . however , any concerns about the validity of interreligious marriages where a buddhist woman marries a non - buddhist have however already been addressed by the 1954 buddhist women’s special marriage and succession act .
iraq’s current personal status law ( law 188 of 1959 ) , which applies to all iraqis regardless of sect , sets the legal age for marriage at 18 , but allows for a judge to permit girls as young as 15 to be married in “urgent” cases . in december 2012 , the lebanese news outlet al - safir reported that rates of early marriage of girls had risen drastically in iraq in the previous decade . in 2013 , the population reference bureau , an international organization , reported that “the decline in early marriage has stopped in … iraq , ” citing its own statistics that 25 percent of girls marry before age 18 and 6 percent before age 15 . the draft law’s provisions would legalize , rather than try to reverse , iraq’s growing child marriage problem , human rights watch said .
leonard , a character in “the marriage plot” , wears a bandana and suffers from depression . was he based on david foster wallace ?
why not ? for part of the explanation , ms koelet points to the intriguing marriage patterns of the swiss . the country has one of the highest rates of international marriage in the world ( surpassed only by liechtenstein , luxembourg and cyprus ) . but the swiss “marry out” in particular ways . the german - speaking swiss marry largely neighbouring germans ; the francophone swiss marry the french ; italian - speakers marry italians . it is the same with belgians : flemish - speakers tend to marry dutch partners , walloons marry french people . language , it appears , remains a persistent barrier to international marriage in europe and the spread of english as a second language does not seem to have changed that .
governments impose restrictions in the belief that cross - border marriages can destabilise their societies . sometimes , their fears are understandable . in taiwan , the share of international marriages doubled in five years . but such rapid change is highly unusual . by and large , marriage between people of different nationalities has grown more slowly than immigration . in the past few years , the increase in marriage has slowed further , probably reflecting global economic problems .

after the marriage is performed , a marriage certificate will be issued by zags . for further use outside belarus , the certificate should bear an apostille from the consular division of the ministry of foreign affairs of belarus in minsk ( 37a karl marx street , minsk 220030 , tel . + 375 ( 172 ) 222661 ; an equivalent of $ 12 is charged in local currency for each apostille ) or at the appropriate belarusian consulate abroad . we recommend that you do this in minsk , as otherwise the cost can be prohibitive .
marriage registration is preceded by filing a marriage application with the zags assigned to the area where the belarusian fiancé ( e ) resides . applications should be filed by both fiancé ( e ) s who certify their intention to get married by signing the application in the presence of a zags representative . according to belarusian laws , a marriage can not be registered sooner than 3 or later than 90 calendar days after it was applied for .

she said .
the head of the catholic church said there is “critical confusion at the moment” about the true nature of marriage as well as the issue of gender .
everywhere , cross - border marriage rises with migration , but more slowly . according to mr esteve ' s figures , the correlation is roughly one international marriage for every two new migrants . that would seem to mean that half of new migrants are marrying into their host society and the other half ( presumably ) into their own communities . so a surge in immigration usually leads to only a more modest rise in cross - border marriages ; the process is slower and more complex .
rather than backing this discriminatory bill , myanmar’s politicians should work with human rights and women’s rights groups to draft a bill allowing couples to register a civil marriage without either party having to convert or follow a religious group’s personal status laws . as the united nations religious freedom expert has recommended , “states should in their personal status laws provide the possibility to have an interreligious marriage for individuals who have different religious affiliations or no religion at all . ”
most demographic trends are irresistible forces . it is rare that government policy can make a big difference . but international marriage is sensitive to public policy . in the mid - 2000s , taiwan ' s government , for example , took alarm at the number of foreign brides coming into the country . it did not slam the gates but started to wrap the marriage process in licensing and permits , insisting on better treatment of immigrant women . this reduced the number of foreign brides by more than half between 2003 and 2010 . malaysia also maintains an array of secular and religious permits which foreigners must get not only for marriage , but also for residence and work . it seems effective : less than 2 % of all malaysian marriages involve a foreigner , against almost 40 % in neighbouring singapore .
marriage between girls from poor countries and older men from rich ones are controversial . as sang - lim lee of the international organisation of migration centre in goyang says , when men pay the brides ' family “they tend to think they have bought a good . if it has a defect , they think they can send it back . ”

for the following nine years he worked on a third book , “the marriage plot” , which was published in october ( reviewed by the economist here ) . it tells the story of three college students—madeleine , leonard and mitchell—who graduate from brown university in 1982 and spend a lot of time discussing literary theory , derrida , tolstoy , austen and hemingway . it is a book about other books , and a postmodern twist on the marriage plot of the victorian novel . but it is also an exploration of mental illness , failed romance and one man ' s battle with religious faith .

may be generous - - marriages are . while the cynical might look at the clintons ' marriage as one that turns on political gain , one in which each has garnered power from the other , isn ' t that the whole point of marriage ? to boost one another ? to support the other despite his or her flaws , or perhaps because of them ?
the writer and director leena yadav’s new film “parched , ” which had its premiere last weekend at the toronto international film festival , presents the villages of rural india as both beautiful and suffocating , places where ancient traditions often trap women in lives of almost unremitting cruelty . this challenging drama was originally conceived as an irreverent comedy , a kind of rural indian “sex in the city . ” but the story became much more serious when the indian - born director visited the desert villages of gujarat and encountered young girls forced into marriage or women with bruises on their arms who made excuses for their husbands’ routine beatings .
a broad spectrum of iraqi rights activists , sunni and shia religious leaders , and judges have criticized the draft law as discriminatory , violating religious texts , and , because the law would single out one sect , entrenching sectarian divisions in law . the iraqi women’s network , an association of women’s rights groups , held protests on march 8 , international women’s day , calling it a day of mourning in iraq .

…a romantic comedy wrapped around an academic satire that looks like the sprightly love child of allegra goodman and jonathan franzen…a master of voice , from the perfectly calibrated voyeurs of the virgin suicides to the bifurcated consciousness of middlesex , eugenides delivers the marriage plot as a sympathetic omniscient narrator who can move unobtrusively into these three lovers ' minds , leaving just the faintest fingerprints of his light satire . the washington post

bill clinton has always been a gifted orator and this address was no different ; it was powerful , convincing and heartfelt . but it was more than just a speech to satisfy an agenda ; far more than a means to a political end . loving , respectful , proud , and very human , his speech spoke volumes not only about his wife , the candidate , but , more notably , about the modern marriage ideal .
it was not until the late nineteenth century that a nascent children’s rights’ protection movement countered the widely held view that children were mainly quasi - property and economic assets . in the united states , the progressive movement challenged courts’ reluctance to interfere in family matters , promoted broad child welfare reforms , and was successful in having laws passed to regulate child labor and provide for compulsory education . it also raised awareness of children’s issues and established a juvenile court system . another push for children’s rights occurred in the 1960s and 1970s , when children were viewed by some advocates as victims of discrimination or as an oppressed group . in the international context , “ [ t ] he growth of children’s rights in international and transnational law has been identified as a striking change in the post - war legal landscape . ” [ 1 ] the purpose of this overview is to describe some of the provisions of certain major international legal instruments on children’s rights that form part of that landscape .
international marriages matter partly because they reflect—and result from—globalisation . as people holiday or study abroad , or migrate to live and work , the visitors meet and marry locals . their unions are symbols of cultural integration , and battlefields for conflicts over integration . few things help immigrants come to terms with their new country more than becoming part of a local family . though the offspring of such unions may struggle with the barriers of prejudice , at their best international marriages reduce intolerance directly themselves , and indirectly through their progeny .

belatedly , answers to these questions of scale and definition are coming , chiefly thanks to the efforts of the international union for the scientific study of population ( iussp ) , a professional association of demographers , and , especially , of doo - sub kim , a professor at hanyang university in seoul who chairs its panel on cross - border marriages . global figures remain sketchy , but marriage patterns in asia and europe , at least , are becoming clearer . some tentative , often surprising , conclusions are emerging .
asia is different . in europe and america , marriage tends to follow migration . in asia , people marry to migrate . marriages in south korea , for example , are often arranged by a broker in an unromantic process that takes two or three days and costs the korean groom $ 20 , 000 - 30 , 000 . similarly , taiwan has many marriages between its male citizens and vietnamese women . the growth began when taiwanese companies started investing in vietnam .
the draft law ignores article 2 of the declaration on the elimination of violence against women by legalizing marital rape , human rights watch said . the cedaw committee , the body of international experts who review state compliance with the convention , in its february 28 , 2014 review of iraq’s reports , urged the government to “immediately withdraw the draft jaafari personal status law . ” the law also appears to violate the international covenants on civil and political rights and on economic , social and cultural rights by granting fewer rights to certain individuals on the basis of their religion .

research into four european countries by suzana koelet of the free university of brussels and others confirms that international marriages have not risen as much as one might have expected in europe . on her calculations , rates of marriages with a person from another european union country have been flat in belgium and the netherlands since 2000 and shown only a modest rise in spain . marriage rates between swiss and eu citizens have also not budged . true , marriages with foreigners have increased sharply in spain—but that was because of a spurt of marriages with non - eu citizens : spain had huge immigration flows from latin america during the 1990s and 2000s . by implication , the closer integration that the eu is supposed to be bringing about seems to be having no discernible impact on the marriage choices of dutch , belgian and spanish citizens .
[ 6 ] the minimum age convention , comprising a preamble and 18 articles , was adopted by the 58th session of the general conference of the international labour organisation on june 26 , 1973 , and entered into force on june 19 , 1976 ; i . l . o . no . 138 . for an online text , see the office of the u . n . high commissioner of human rights ( ohchr ) web site , urltoken ( last visited july 25 , 2007 ) ( unofficial source ) .
the draft law violates the convention on the elimination of all forms of discrimination against women ( cedaw ) , which iraq ratified in 1986 , by giving fewer rights to women and girls on the basis of their gender . it also violates the convention on rights of the child , which iraq ratified in 1994 , by legalizing child marriage , putting girls at risk of forced and early marriage and susceptible to sexual abuse , and not requiring decisions about children in divorce cases to be made in the best interests of the child .
though the gap in background , age and education between spouses in international marriages is greater than in those between compatriots , it does not seem to affect these unions ' durability . doo - sub kim plotted the time that cross - border marriages have lasted in south korea against the couples ' ages and educational backgrounds . amazingly , the bigger the difference , the longer the marriage . it is hard to know why this should be . maybe those who marry foreigners invest more in their marriages . or maybe younger , poorer wives find it harder to leave .
yet this is not the dominant pattern , still less the sole one . international marriages often seem to work for the couple involved—at least if the longevity of their union is any guide . and they seem to have social benefits , as well as costs , for both receiving and sending countries .
“matchmaker , matchmaker , make me a match…” well , you know the rest . it’s a charming tune in fiddler on the roof , the iconic musical set in a 19th - century shtetl . but even here a little bit goes a long way and tevye’s daughters have the good taste to gently satirize the tradition . now , move the marriage plot to 21st - century israel ( admittedly , in an ultra - orthodox community ) and multiply the young girl’s yearning exponentially with no spirit of sendup .
aung myaing , the chairperson of the buddhist theravada dharma network , claims the bill would protect vulnerable buddhist women who unwittingly make marriage decisions without understanding the ramifications . the implication is that buddhist women in interreligious marriages have far fewer legal protections and rights than those who marry buddhists .
in its review , the cedaw committee had also recommended that iraq repeal discriminatory legal exceptions to the minimum age of marriage for girls in the existing personal status law . it said that legal exceptions to the minimum age of marriage should be granted only in exceptional cases and authorized by a competent court for both girls and boys , and only in cases in which they are at least 16 years old and give their express consent . it recommended that iraq take the necessary legislative measures to prohibit polygamy , which is permitted in the current law under certain circumstances .
and yet , of course , the clintons ' very public marriage has not been a universally smooth one . it has endured career ambition , extramarital affairs , numerous relocations , children , grandchildren . it has most certainly been tested , both publicly and privately . it is not perfect .

in most developing countries , the share of men married to foreign women was less than 2 % in 2000 ( 0 . 7 % in ghana and bolivia ; 0 . 2 % in colombia and the philippines ; 3 . 3 % in south africa ) . in contrast , three rich countries—america , britain and france—account for half the total in the sample . america alone has a third . because it is so large , though , the share of international marriage remains low : only 4 . 6 % of americans were married to a foreigner in 2010 , up from 2 . 4 % in 1970 .

for their part , the young women , often from poor areas of china and vietnam , are looking for economic opportunities . marriage with a man from a richer country is seen as a means of advancement and a way of helping their families at home . in asia , it seems , cross - border unions are products of distorted local marriage markets ; in europe , they are results of gaps in labour markets that encourage migration . in both parts of the world , diasporas play a role : as immigrants settle down they encourage friends and family from back home to follow in their footsteps .

the measure would require non - buddhist men to convert to buddhism before they could marry a buddhist woman . the couple would then have to get written consent from the bride’s parents or guardians and subsequently prove compliance with these preconditions before local authorities could register the marriage . according to a draft of the proposed law , a non - buddhist man who does not comply with these rules before marrying a buddhist woman could face 10 years in prison and have his property seized and handed to her . he could also be prosecuted for other offences related to marriage under the myanmar penal code , with separate sentences and fines .
the european convention on the recognition and enforcement of decisions concerning the custody of children ( the luxembourg convention ) seeks to protect the rights of custody and access to children in the international context . it calls upon the central authorities designated by states parties to provide “free , prompt , non - bureaucratic assistance” in determining the whereabouts and restoring custody of an improperly removed child . [ 53 ] they must also avoid prejudice to the interests of the child or of the applicant in restoring child custody , among other requirements . like the 1980 convention , the luxembourg convention defines a child as being under the age of sixteen ( article 1 ( a ) ) . also , under both instruments , the right of action lies with the custody holder . [ 54 ] the luxembourg convention uses the term “improper removal” to refer to “the removal of a child across an international frontier in breach of a decision relating to his custody” given in a state party and enforceable in that state ( article 1 ( d ) ) , in contrast to the 1980 convention’s term “wrongful removal or retention” of a child and the crc’s term “the illicit transfer and non - return of children abroad” ( article 11 ) .

under this law , when a buddhist woman marries a non - buddhist man , all rights and disputes regarding the marriage are governed by burmese customary law , which also governs buddhist marriages . the proposed new law , if enacted , will suspend the application of the 1954 law and simply prescribe conversion to buddhism .
if you talk to geneticists they are constantly finding that your genes are being switched on and off because of the environment . genes alone do not determine an exact path in your life . it ' s a strong influence , and you can ' t discount it , but it ' s not that simple , it ' s much more complex . i think it is important to remind people of the extent of our free will . an entirely mechanistic view of life is not only inaccurate , it is rather depressing i think .
local men in such countries , mr jones argues from singapore , look for foreign brides for two reasons . first because of the so - called “marriage strike” affecting some east asian societies . in the richer countries of east and south - east asia , like japan , singapore , south korea and taiwan , a third or more of local women are not marrying ; and those who do wed late , at 31 or 32 . this is causing some men to look to foreign shores for potential mates . the other reason—specific to a few asian societies—is because a combination of traditional preference for sons and the availability of sex - selective abortion skewed the sex ratio at birth 20 years ago , leaving too few native - born women now . south korea is an example . in 1990 , it had 117 boys born for every 100 girls . men are looking abroad to plug the gap in their local marriage market .

the hague convention on the civil aspects of international child abduction ( 1980 convention ) governs issues related to parental kidnapping or the removal of children under the age of sixteen across international borders and involving the jurisdiction of different countries’ courts . its stated objectives are to secure the prompt return of children wrongfully removed to or retained in any contracting state and to ensure that the rights of custody and of access under the law of one contracting state are effectively respected in the other contracting states ( article 1 ) . removal or retention of a child is deemed wrongful if : a ) it is in breach of custody rights attributed to a person , an institution , or any other body , either jointly or alone , under the law of the state in which the child was habitually resident immediately before the removal or retention ; and b ) at the time of removal or retention those rights were exercised , or would have been but for the removal or retention ( article 3 , paragraph 1 ) .
so it is all the more disappointing that until recently so little has been known about these unions . records are patchy . some countries do not collect annual information about the citizenship of couples . official figures may say nothing about a marriage if it takes place abroad ( for example in the country of the immigrant spouse ) .
[ 48 ] the hague convention on the protection of children and cooperation in respect of intercountry adoption , comprising a preamble and forty - eight articles , was concluded on may 29 , 1993 , and entered into force on may 1 , 1995 . 32 i . l . m . 1134 ( 1993 ) . for an online text , see the hcch web site , urltoken ( last visited july 27 , 2007 ) . see also hans van loon , hague convention of 29 may 1993 on protection of children and cooperation in respect of intercountry adoption , 3 the international journal of children’s rights 463 ( 1995 ) , available at urltoken .
