| Popis: | The chapter presents the main characteristics of transnational marriage practices of Indian Punjabis living in the provinces of Mantua and Reggio Emilia, Northern Italy, focusing on ‘arranged marriages’. Since there is a growing political control over the migrant family, these reproductive customs are under particular scrutiny and are often considered instrumental strategies to elude immigration laws and migration restrictions, or as instruments of oppression and denial of personal freedoms. |
