La non esportabilità del dibattito statunitense sull’abolizione del matrimonio in Europa: note di diritto comparato

Abstract

The non-exportability of the US debate on the abolition of marriage in Europe: comparative law notes – The debate on the abolition of civil marriage in the United States has not yet died down, although it seems to have reached a new peak of 'popularity' in conjunction with the Supreme Court's decision in Obergefell. After clarifying the contours of the debate and its constitutional implications, the study proposed here examines the exportability of this debate in continental European countries. In summary, after noting the absence of such a debate in the European context, the article traces some of the potential reasons for it and concludes by considering it not exportable in the European context.
