This study deals with the topic of marriages between German citizens and members of the native population in German Southwest Africa. The instructions issued to registrars in September 1905 banned these marriages and also made the marriages occurring before the ban void. Archival sources contain several cases where German fathers tried to legitimise their children or a case of a woman seeking a divorce instead of having her marriage proclaimed as void. They appealed to the courts, but the legal situation in German Southwest Africa was not clearly defined and thus, the decisions and reasoning of courts in the cases differed. The study looks at the ban on mixed marriages in the context of race and racist attitudes in the early 20th century and introduces the historical background to the ban. The attitudes of the representatives of the colonial administration and Berlin institutions were influenced with the racial theories and racist worldview. The sources indicate the progress of the topic from the intellectual racial and racist discourse to its institutionalisation and instrumentalisation.

The paper aims to analyze the origins of mixed marriages between Slovaks and Muslims as well as their forms and functioning. The authoress pays attention to the influence of the official conditions in Slovakia, such as status of Islam, activities of the Muslim religious community, its registration, its relationships with the state institutions, its perception by the majority of population, as well as formation of the stereotypes and prejudices. The paper also explores the individual dispositions and attitudes of the partners as well as their own perception of the mixed marriages. It concentrates on the analysis of the interviews with them. The authoress further presents the results of her participant observation in Islamic community and the interviews with the representatives of the Islamic organisations. She also pays attention to the presentation of Islamic culture in mass media. The paper focuses in particular on the origins of partners' relationships, the religious as well as the civic wedding rituals, the attitudes of the family members, and the influence of Islam on the family life and education of the children. The authoress examines how the wives reflect stereotypes concerning marriage and status of a woman in Muslim family. According to the authoress, the number of such mixed marriages will increase in future as a consequence of the broadening cultural contacts and rising mobility.

The contribution based on a field research pays its attention to changes in understanding the ethnicity and religious affiliation with the people of Czech origin in Polish Zelów. The original concept connecting these two elements of identity survives only with the people born few years before the second re-emigration in 1945. Younger members of the evangelic reformed church with Czech ancestors consider themselves to be Poles of Czech origin. The cohesiveness has got looser since the 1960s when the people began to enter into mixed marriages. This fact shifted the language to the preferred use of Polish as their mother tongue. It was the newly founded Society of Czechs in Poland and its Czech Club presenting the Czech traditions in Zelów that has pointed out the Czech origin of individuals recently. However, the religious affiliation still remains the most important element in the life of Poles of Czech origin. The conversion as well as mixed marriages, which predominate nowadays, can be understood as elements regenerating the evangelic reformed church and ensuring its continuity.

Many centuries of co-habitation of Poles and Ruthenians in common areas of the borderland created an exceptional denominational situation. Both nations were often joined within one family. Problems caused by the meeting of Greek Catholic and Latin traditions should have been regulated by special Church documents of a local character, as well as by ones promulgated by the Holy See.

The aim of the study is to present the development of ecclesiastical and civil legal norms regulating the conclusion of mixed marriages and the question of the religious allegiance of children in the Kingdom of Hungary. It analyses the interventions of the state authorities and the Catholic Church in the period from the middle of the 18th century to the revolution of 1848. Joseph II’s ecclesiastical policies created a new legal framework in which the interests and aims of the state and the Catholic Church began to diverge. During the Napoleonic Wars and especially in the reform period, mixed marriages became a subject of politicization and struggle between the liberal opposition and the conservative pro-government group supported by the Catholic hierarchy. The study also includes a sounding into the discourse of the time and analyses representative texts of both Catholic and Protestant origin. In the final part, the author considers the social strategies developed in confessional mixed local communities in reaction to the disciplinary pressure from the authorities.

Intermarriage has been argued to be a key indicator of migrants’ integration into the host society. However, relatively little is known about the experiences of what many forms of intermarriage entail in a super-diverse context. In this paper, I problematise and further investigate the assumed link between intermarriage and the cultural, identificational and interactive dimensions of social integration of Polish migrants in Britain. The analysis is based on the results of a qualitative research project conducted among Polish migrants in Birmingham and surrounding towns of the West Midlands, where Poles represent the third most numerous non-UK-born population. The data collected in the course of this research suggests that there are three main patterns of interactive integration of Polish intermarried migrants: (1) the classical path of acculturation and integration, (2) inverse integration, and (3) the more pluralistic cosmopolitan mode.

According to can 1124 of the Code of Canon Law of 1983, without the expressed permission of the competent authority, marriage is prohibited between two baptized persons, one of whom is baptized in the Catholic Church and the other belonging to a Church or ecclesial community not in full communion with the Catholic Church (e.g. the Lutheran Church). As for mixed marriages, in the present valid Code of Canon Law, there is characteristic ecumenical spirit. There is no mention of the 'heretic-party' but the Code of Canon Law speaks of the 'baptized non-Catholic party'. The local Ordinary of the Catholic party can grant permission for the canonical celebration of mixed marriage, but this permission has no influence on the validity of this marriage. The baptized non-Catholic party makes no promise, but he or she is to be informed only of the promise and the obligation to be made by the Catholic party. If in spite of all efforts, the children are neither baptized nor brought up in the Catholic Church, the Catholic parent does not incur automatically a censure of the Canon Law (compare can. 1366 CIC). In individual cases, if there are serious difficulties in the way of observing the canonical form, the local Ordinary of the Catholic party has the right to dispense from it. For validity, however, some public form of celebration is required. The diocesan Bishop can grant the permission for the liturgical celebration of mixed marriage of the Catholic party with the non-Catholic (e.g. Lutheran) party within Holy Mass. The same diocesan Bishop can also grant the permission to receive the Eucharist, servatis servandis, by the baptized non-Catholic party.

The dual purpose of this article is to find out the importance and characteristics of marriages between foreigners and Spaniards and to study the opinions of the Spanish population on the possibility of their children having affective relationships with foreigners, since this is becoming an important element in the definition of the marriage market opportunity structure. For the first goal, data were acquired from the Movimiento Natural de Población (Vital Statistics) statistical source. For the second, data were taken from the national survey on attitudes of the Spanish population toward immigrants taken by the ASEP Company. Firstly, the results show that there is a gradual increase in mixed marriages, although there are differentiated patterns between men and women. Secondly, Spaniards are against one of their family members marrying a foreigner.
