This article aims at fostering a dialogue among different experiences and positions in regard to the use of mediators in cases of forced marriage. Forced marriages are a subset of domestic violence and a violation of the human right to choose a partner. There are grey areas between a forced and an arranged marriage, customary in many cultures. Evidence is taken primarily from experiences in Denmark, Norway and the UK. A particular methodology, cross cultural transformative mediation (similar to victim advocacy), is explained and proponents and opponents of mediation are put into a fictitious dialogue.

Abstract
This article aims at fostering a dialogue among different experiences and positions in regard to the use of mediators in cases of forced marriage. Forced marriages are a subset of domestic violence and a violation of the human right to choose a partner. There are grey areas between a forced and an arranged marriage, customary in many cultures. Evidence is taken primarily from experiences in Denmark, Norway and the UK. A particular methodology, cross cultural transformative mediation (similar to victim advocacy), is explained and proponents and opponents of mediation are put into a fictitious dialogue.File in questo prodotto:
