註釋This comprehensive volume illustrates that the demands made on modern family and child law in industrialised nations are also shaped by the respective cultural background. This holds true also with respect to related questions such as the basic conditions guaranteed by the general public. The question which risks are to be considered as private and / or public is of overall importance in times when society is changing rapidly and is facing a global crisis. ISSUES AND OBJECTIVES OF RESEARCH Contributions from various European States as well as from China, Japan, South Korea, South Africa, North and South America and Israel develop different approaches to the following vital questions of today:Marriages with migration background, patchwork families, support/ alimony, division of matrimonial property, choice of domicile and related financial aspects of transfer of financial and other contributions and of goods within the family as well as from third parties to the family and from the family to third parties. Such transfers as well as transfer costs are highlighted, and their reasonableness in a modern society critically appraised. Many contributions demonstrate that the aim of the law and / or private agreements may not always be achieved. This volume is recommended to academics and practitioners who share the interest in different approaches stemming from other legal systems and cultures, to help them reflect on similar questions and problems at home.
