Publisher's Synopsis
The International Society of Family Law is an independent, international, and non-political scholarly association dedicated to the study, research and discussion of family law and related disciplines. The Society's membership currently includes professors, lecturers, scholars, teachers, and researchers from more than 50 different countries, offering a unique opportunity for networking within a truly international family law community.
The International Survey of Family Law is the annual review of the International Society of Family Law. It brings together reliable and clearly structured insights into the latest and most notable developments in family law from all around the globe. Chapters are prepared by an international team of selected experts in the field, usually covering 20 or more jurisdictions in each edition.
The 2022 edition of the International Survey includes a broad review of global developments, including the incorporation of international treaties and European law into national adjudications, the impact of COVID-19, the changing demographic pressures that influence family organisation, the ability of different legal systems to manage the parallel religious and secular concerns, the challenges of immigration and cross-border disputes, and a review of different countries' approaches to family recognition, spousal support, custody, inheritance and other family law topics.
