Описание:

This book explores current patterns in marriage and shows that even with changes in marriage and family, "nearly all Americans still marry at some point in their lives and when they marry, they behave much like other married people." From getting engaged to breaking up, people follow established and predictable patterns of behavior. Revisiting a wide range of qualitative and quantitative data, Yodanis and Lauer show how the institution of marriage continues to constrain options within and outside of marriage.

Why, especially in a time of increasing options, do people still keep, honor, and obey the institution of marriage? The answer in a sociological perspective and key sociological theories. The lack of innovation in who and when individuals marry and how they live and interact within marriage comes from the continuing formal and informal rules and taken for granted expectations of marriage. The influence of these rules and expectations is so strong that attempts at innovation and alternatives to marriage, including remaining single, cohabitation, same sex marriage, and communes, are shaped and constrained by the institution of marriage. The authors show how our private relationships are public issues.

Описание: This book challenges assumptions about the motivations that drive women from relatively poor, developing countries to use intermarriage dating sites to find partners from relatively wealthy, developed countries. It is generally assumed that economic deprivation or economic opportunities are the main factors, but this book instead focuses on the work of women’s imagination in online cross-cultural relationships, including the role of desire, love and intimacy. The experiences of Thai women are used to explore how they initiate, develop and maintain love and intimacy with Western men across distance and time. The book shows that, in the absence of opportunities to search and meet partners from geographically distant parts of the world, the technology of the internet offers new ways of searching for and managing relationships and has significant consequences for local experiences and expectations of love and partnering. The book will be of interest to scholars and students with an interest in family and intimate life, gender and sexualities, Asian and Thai studies, globalization and nationalism, culture and media, sociology and anthropology.
