Maria Platt

4.9/5 (19337 ratings)

Description:This book explores how women deal with the realm of marriage in Lombok, eastern Indonesia. It draws on women s narratives of their marital trajectories, recounting their stories of courtship, marital discord, and experiences of divorce, remarriage and polygamy. In this part of Indonesia, which is strongly Islamic, up to seventy per cent of marriages are informal and unregistered, legalised only under Islamic, not state, law. The book examines the consequences of this, which include the fact that in Islamic law divorce can only be initiated by a man, whose pronouncement of divorce is final and binding, and the fact that women divorced in this way from unofficial unions lack the legal rights available to those whose marriages are formally registered by the state. The book outlines how women cope with the difficulties which arise as a result of this situation."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
