Quo Vadis Marriage?
Original language description
Marriage is a legal framework, which allows partners to make their relationship legally recognised and at the same time establishes mutual rights and obligations. The content of such rights and obligations may vary from state to state, and European states are no exception. Different approaches also exist to personal requirements for being able to marry. The contribution focuses on the conditions for partners’ gender i.e. whether entering into marriage is allowed only to different sex couples or whether marriage is opened also for same sex couples. Marriage can be enshrined by basic law or, as in some countries, by constitutional law. The level of legal enshrinement affects the possibility of change of marriage, specifically whether it is possible to change the nature of marriage by a Constitutional Court decision, or just by legislative procedure or by referendum. In some European countries, it is possible to see a trend of opening marriage for the same sex couples; in other countries, we can see a trend of protection of marriage as a bond of different sex partners on constitutional level.
