Resumen de La nozione di 'matrimonio': diritto internazionale privato e diritto materiale a confronto
- English
This paper tackles the topical and muc debated issue of the notions of "marriage" and "spouse" under EU substantive and private international law. Taking the stand from the different coexisting models of family relationships and from the fragmented normative approaches developed at the domestic level, this paper (while aware of the ongoing evolutionary trend in this field) focuses on whether it is possible, at present, to infer an autonomous notion of "marriage" from EU law, either in general or from some specific areas thereof. The response to this question bears significant consequences in terms of defining the scope of application of the uniform rules on the free movement of persons, on the cross-border recognition of family statuses and on the ensuing patrimonial regimes. With specific regard to the current Italian legal framework, this paper examines to which extent characterization issues are still relevant.
