Servile marriage 2012, para. 58
Paragraphe- Paragraph text
- South Africa has given individuals and couples the right to choose the law that should govern their marriage, enabling them to opt out of traditional systems (that they may feel are oppressive or discriminatory) in favour of a law based on the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women. Such an approach should be further explored to ensure that all laws are brought into conformity with international standards (E/CN.4/2002/83, para. 9).
