搁茅蝉耻尘茅
(En anglais seulement) The disconnect between marriage and parenthood (Parsons 1916) seems acquis in 21C family law. Particularly, filiation can be established with full effect vis-脿-vis parents who are not, and never were, each other鈥檚 intimate partners.
The first purpose of this Workshop, however, is to unveil that parenthood still is much dependent on the existence of a(n) (former) intimate partnership between the parents, e.g. in adoption law (art. 555 CCQ) or in the exercise of parental authority (art. 372 CCF). Function merely seems to have replaced form.
The second purpose is to normatively discuss the above in light of the 鈥渃hannelling function鈥� of family law (Schneider 1992), aiming to direct people into accepted social institutions that exert performative effects. Is there a State interest to direct parents towards certain intimate practices, if not institutions? Alternatively, is there a State interest in developing a non-intimate parenthood status between parents (Weiner 2015)?
The Workshop will draw on family studies and on Quebec and Low Countries鈥� family law.
