LAW, STATE and the FAMILY: the POLITICS of CHILD CUSTODY in the 1980S LAW, STATE AND THE FAMILY: THE POLITICS OF CHILD CUSTODY JULIA ANNE BROPHY Thesis submitted for the degree of Ph.D. Centre for Criminology and Soclo-Legal Studies, the Faculty of Law, the University of Sheffield, December, 1985 Law, State and the Family: The Politics of Child Custody JULIA ANNE BROPHY SUMMARY La State and the Family: the Politics of Child Custody is an examination of the development of law and legal practices in relation to mothers and the legal custody of children. It maps the history of statute law and re-reads legal practice focusing upon the way in which these practices reproduce and sustain the conditions of motherhood. The first section documents the construction of the infant as a legal subject and the emergence of mothers legal rights in relation to children under the nineteenth century Guardianship Acts. The second section examines debates regarding the role of the state in the area of children and divorce following the Second World War. This section also examines the influence of ideologies of welfare upon the legal treatment of different categories of children during this period. In addition, this section also analyses the limited role which the law plays in the majority of decisions concerning custody of children following divorce. The third section documents and analyses women's experiences of contesting custody of their children through an empirical study of a sample of lesbian mothers. The focus is upon both the courts and legal processes involving lawyers and divorce court welfare officers. This section reveals the influences of notions of good mothering and perceptions of female sexuality upon those legal processes. The final section is concerned with contemporary debates in the 1980s regarding the role of the state generally in the area of children and divorce and particularly, discussions of the role of law in con- structing children's relationships with fathers. This section addresses the issues of 'joint custody' of children and conciliation schemes through a discussion of the implications of these practices in America. This section concludes with a discussion of the general trend away from 'law' and legal rules in this area, towards 'private ordering' in concilia- tions. Finally, it sets out the implications of that trend for feminist discussions of future policy in the area of children and divorce in Britain. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to acknowledge the support I received from a number of people attached to the Centre for Socio-Legal Studies at the University of Sheffield: Tony Jefferson who took on the supervision of this research project in my final year at Sheffield, Kathy McCann, Elaine Fishwick and Mick Salter who gave me a great deal of support and encouragement. In particular, I would like to express my thanks to Carol Smart for her constructive comments on successive drafts of Parts I and II, for discussions on the issues raised in the Introductory Essay. I am enormously grateful to her for her encouragement and for her constant support of the research project as a whole. I would also like to thank Sarah Blandy, a family law practitioner, for her time and expertise; Sue Allen and Bernice Humphries, who both gave time and information which was central to the development of some of the themes expressed in Part III. Equally, I would also like to thank the lesbian mothers whose experiences are outlined in Part III of this research. Without their substantial courage - and indeed their support - important parts of this research would not have been possible. I would also like to express my thanks to Mary Eaton, for her constructive comments on Part III, for discussions and comments on the Introductory Essay, for her support and encouragement, and for her wonderful sense of humour. My thanks also to Stephen Ridall, for his support and encourage- ment throughout, for his patience and expertise in computer skills, and especially for the care and support given during the crucial 'writing-up' period. Finally I wish to formally record the role of Sue Macleanan. Although she did not live to witness the formal completion of this research project, her energy, and her belief in both author and content sustained me throughout.

It looks at campaigns to achieve legislation, legislation itself, court practices and legal procedure and finall womens' experiences of law and legal procedure in Britain in the 1980s. The first part of the thesis is conceited with the absolute powers of fathers in the nineteenth century patriarchal family, and legal intervention. My concern was to to examine traditional explanations of the development of law in relation to the guardianship and custody of children. I argue that developments in this area of law cannot adequately be described simply in terms of the demise of 'father right' and the emergence of 'mother right'. Rather, I document the emergence of a third party - the State - in the management of the patriarchal family. I demonstrate how legal intervention was always tempered by a desire to preserve the family. Thus a concern for the custody and maintenance of children was mediated through a desire that 'any new law and legal practices should not appear to undermine the institution of the family1 by making separation and divorce a viable alternative for mothers, except in the most extreme of circumstances. I discuss the emergence of the infant as a legal subject and the shift in the ideology of the family which that focus brought about, particularly in relation to the recon- struction of the role of mothers. However, in examining the focus upon children,(and subsequently on mothers) over the turn of the century, I argue that, whilst 'motherhood' was indeed elevated in certain social practices, this did not necessarily lead to a simple re-evaluation of power within the patriarchal family (Donzelot 1980). Whilst nineteenth century campaigns demonstrated gross failures in the system of privilege and rights which the law attached to men, state intervention to pro t e c t/ women and children focused upon sustaining the family rather than undermining it. Thus the new rights which mothers did acquire under the Guardianship Acts in relation to children, were only operable on the breakdown of marriage. It was at the point of breakdown that welfarist discourses provided the dual mechanism through which childhood and hence motherhood become constituted in family law. In the second part of this thesis I focus on law and legal procedure in the post war years in relation to different categories of children - the orphan, the deserted and the illegitimate child. Here I examine the influence of ideologies of both welfare and motherhood particularly in relation to new procedures to deal with children and divorce. I analyse the tensions between two approaches to the role of the state in dealing with this issue. One approach, located in the Denning Report (1947) argued for increased power for the courts to investigate and report on the circumstances of all children whose parents divorce.

  • Bankruptcy Pros + Cons Pros Things to Consider
    Bankruptcy Pros + Cons Bankruptcy is a formal insolvency procedure in which all your financial affairs are taken under the control of an “Official Receiver” or a “Trustee”, who has the power to sell your assets to pay your creditors. The duty of the Official Receiver and Trustee is to investigate and realise assets for the benefit of your creditors. The Insolvency Service states that you should check if there are other ways you can deal with your debts before you apply for bankruptcy. Pros Bankruptcy is a relatively quick process, often lasting 12 months. When the bankruptcy order is made interest and charges on included debts will be frozen. Creditor collection activity will cease once a bankruptcy order is made. Until such time if you currently have any recovery or legal action this may not be suspended or withdrawn. If legal action starts to recover debts prior to the commencement of bankruptcy this may result in further cost to you. Outstanding personal tax liabilities can be included in a bankruptcy. Things to consider An upfront payment of £655 (for Northern Ireland £647) is required in order to access the solution. Further fees are payable and are taken from funds recovered for creditors. You will not be asked to pay anything further; the fees will be taken from any sale proceeds and/or payments you make to your Official Receiver or Trustee. You may be required to make a payment into the bankruptcy for 36 months. If your sole source of income is state benefits it is unlikely you will be required to make a monthly payment based on Insolvency Service guidance.

This paper aims to analyse the civil and criminal proceedings enforceable in the court of law against the defiance ex-husbands. Results of the content analysis revealed that the proper rules of civil and criminal procedure have been materialized to ensure the degree of impartiality in the administration of Islamic family law in Malaysia. On the other hand, the administrative machinery was found to have better enforcement power in tracking defaulters. Findings imply the need to boost up the legislative and administrative mechanisms to ensure effective execution of the financial supports order after divorce thus protecting the welfare of the divorced women.
