This study is an attempt to understand the mechanism of transnational marriages and how transnational links are maintained, produced and reproduced by organizing marriages between families residing in France and Pakistan. Data were collected by employing qualitative research methods. As marriage is the collective affair of the family in Pakistan, it was considered essential to not only interview the spouses but their parents as well. Both corresponding families (the family of groom and the family of bride) in France and in Pakistan were interviewed to understand transnational marriage. The preferred pool of potential spouses is comprised of different layers of Punjabi kinship. Well maintained reciprocal relationships, cultural preferences to arrange marriages within kin, trust on acquaintances and to avoid the risk of anonymity, were considered key determinants to define the primary spouse selection criteria. These determinants are supplemented by the complimentary criteria, including education, age, morality, and behavioral traits. Once primary and complimentary criteria are met, both generations (parents and their children) negotiate the adequacy of potential spouse to reach to the final decision of marriage. Family’s obligations, children’s capital, the interplay of authority, resistance and the kin, family’s marriage history, preserving the roots, and the transnational trust between the siblings determine the adequacy of a spouse as well as of the marriage. Though transnational Pakistani marriages follow the traditional patterns to celebrate marriage, nonetheless, migration has introduced some important alterations to different norms as practiced in Pakistan. In the similar vein, the family and household structure are undergoing transition due to their simultaneous presence between here and there. Transnational marriages maintain transnational links by inscribing the cultural values for family and marriage. However, the relationships across gender and generation are on the move by carrying the cultural influences from the host society. Keywords: Transnationalism, migration, family and marriage, Kinship, adequate spouse, Pakistan, France 1 RESUME 'Marrying back home' (« se marier au pays ») est une pratique internationale que l’on trouve couramment au sein de la diaspora pakistanaise. Cette étude entreprend de saisir le mécanisme de ces mariages transnationaux et comment les liens transnationaux sont maintenus, produits et reproduits par l'organisation de mariages entre les familles résidant en France et au Pakistan. Les données ont été recueillies en utilisant des méthodes de recherche qualitative. Comme le mariage est un enjeu qui concerne l’ensemble de la famille au Pakistan, il est apparu essentiel d’interviewer les époux, mais aussi leurs parents. Les deux familles en lien (celle de l'époux et celle de la mariée) en France et au Pakistan ont été interrogées afin de mettre à jour les logiques du mariage transnational. Le choix privilégié des époux se fait à l’intérieur des différents niveaux de la parenté au Punjab. Les éléments déterminants pour définir les critères de sélection consistent principalement dans des relations réciproques bien affermies, un respect de la tradition du mariage au sein des liens de parenté et une confiance dans les personnes proches afin d’amenuiser le risque d’anonymat. D’autres critères viennent au second rang comme l'éducation, l'âge, la moralité et les traits comportementaux. Lorsque l’ensemble de ces critères sont réunis, les deux générations négocient alors la mise en correspondance des conjoints potentiels en vue de la décision finale du mariage. Les exigences d’une telle correspondance sont liées au respect des obligations familiales, à la valeur accordée aux enfants, au jeu entre autorité, résistance à celle- ci et parenté, à l’histoire maritale de la famille, à la préservation des racines et à la confiance transnationale au sein de la fratrie. Bien que les mariages transnationaux pakistanais suivent les modèles traditionnels pour célébrer le mariage, l’émigration a toutefois introduit des modifications significatives vis-à-vis des règles en vigueur au Pakistan. Selon un processus semblable, la structure familiale et des ménages est en cours de transition en raison de la présence simultanée des deux familles dans chaque pays. Si les mariages transnationaux maintiennent les liens familiaux entre les deux pays en réaffirmant les valeurs culturelles liées au mariage, les modalités des relations entre hommes et femmes et entre générations évoluent néanmoins suivant les influences culturelles de la société d'accueil.

There is also a need to understand how this community has evolved and its priorities vis-à-vis Pakistan. There are approximately 2.2 million Pakistanis in Europe. Around half live in the United Kingdom. Italy, Greece, France, Spain, Germany and Denmark also have large Pakistani communities. The Pakistani diaspora in the EU maintain more contact with their homeland than those who live elsewhere. Pakistani emigrants and their children influence their homeland culturally and economically by maintaining close ties, travelling to Pakistan and investing there. This paper examines the attitudes and aspirations of the Pakistani diaspora in Europe, EU policy towards them and the steps that can be taken by the EU in order to increase their role in democracy building in Pakistan.

  • Marriage and Mobility Among Danish Pakistani Youth
    bs_bs_banner Between preferences: marriage and mobility among Danish Pakistani youth Mikkel Rytter Aarhus University International literature shows that second-generation Pakistanis in the United Kingdom to a large extent marry spouses from the extended family in Pakistan. A similar picture was also recently to be found in Denmark. However, strict Danish legislation on family reunification introduced in 2002 and an increasing number of local love marriages have changed the overall picture. This article discusses how the new marriage preferences affect common notions of family relatedness, and suggests that young couples’ decision to engage in a love marriage constitutes an act of symbolic mobility. Ultimately, Danish Pakistanis are split between the marriage preferences set up by their families, the Danish nation-state, and themselves. In this respect, marriage not only is about entering adulthood and deciding one’s future, but also constitutes a process where notions of identity and belonging are negotiated within local and transnational families. At first, Yasmeen and Imran, fellow Roskilde University students and occasional class- mates,did not really notice each other and spoke only sporadically. Gradually, however, they became more and more interested in each other. They started communicating by e-mail, talked after class, and on one occasion they even risked getting caught and went to the movies together. Yasmeen and Imran were both well aware that by doing so, they were going well beyond the rules of purdah, the common code of acceptable

Trods forudsigelser om religionernes mistede betydning og verdens af-fortryllelse synes religion at have fået ny kraft og vitalitet i en moderne global verden. Det er ikke længere alene relevant at forholde sig til globaliseringen af islam, men også til islam som en globaliseringsdynamik. Alle fem artikler i dette temanummer operer på to niveauer. Dels tilvejebringer artiklerne empirisk viden om, og analytisk indsigt i, ’muslimer i transnationalitet’: de viser, hvordan lokale religiøse praksisser og trosforestillinger knytter muslimer - med eller mod deres vilje - til forskelligartede fællesskaber på tværs af landegrænser. Dels giver artiklerne teoretiske perspektiver på ’transnational islam’, i den forstand, at de alle på et mere overordnet plan afsøger og diskuterer religionens organisering, appel og plasticitet i en global verden.

  • Denmark: Welcoming Many, 2001
    Urmila Goel, Denmark: Welcoming many, www.urmila.de, 2001 Denmark: Welcoming many 1713 the Tamil boy Timotheus is presented at the court in Copenhagen. He is brought from the Danish colony Tranquebar by missionaries of the “Dänisch-Hallesche Mission”, the first protestant mission in Southern India from 1706 to 1837. At their school he was taught not only the Christian religion but also the Danish language. Now he is brought to Europe as a show piece. Seeing Timotheus the widow of the king is so much impressed, that she asks for a Christian Tamil boy for herself, whom she gets. Timotheus gets to know the Tamils already living in Copenhagen. When his relationship to a Tamil girl – a former slave of a Danish priest in Tranquebar – becomes public in 1714, prejudices about the sexual permissiveness of Tamils are strengthened. Nonetheless Timotheus begins his studies to become a missionary. These are interrupted when the king allows a journey to Halle. After his return Timotheus is selected to teach two Danish candidates for the mission in Portuguese and Tamil. Soon, however, another training is sought for Timotheus, he begins an apprenticeship as a bookbinder, which he completes in 1717. After marrying the Tamil Sahra he returns to India, where he works for the mission. (Liebau 1996, 9-18) Today - long after Denmark has ceased to be a colonial power - the link to Tranquebar seems to have gone as well. Only few immigrants of Indian origin live in the country, the considerable number of Tamils are refugees from Sri Lanka, the largest South Asian group in Denmark are the Pakistanis.1 The latter seem to have come as guestworkers in the 1960s and 70s (Steen 1993, 103).
