Religion and Marriage Law

The Need for Reform

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Successive governments have made progressive reforms to marriage law in Britain. However, the ad hoc introduction of reforms has resulted in a complex and controversial legal framework, especially in relation to religion. This book provides the first accessible guide to how contemporary marriage law interacts with religion. It reveals the need for the consolidation, modernisation and reform of marriage law and sets out proposals for transformation.
