Non-Fiction. Cross-cultural relationships, including de facto and same-sex unions, are part of the current international landscape. Political and economic circumstances intervene in the acceptability and success of these relationships. We have heard many stories of individuals getting married to obtain residency status and those who divorce due to difficulties triggered by cultural differences. There are incidents of foreign partners being insulted or treated unjustly because their loved ones belong to another culture or adhere to a different faith. Regardless of the challenges face by cross-cultural couples, the majority have a successful relationship. These intimate relationships have economic, political and socio-cultural implications: they result to more businesses and monetary movements; better understanding of and more tolerance to other cultures; more stable and wider political and economic co-operations; and new challenges globally. This book presents sociological analyses of intercultural relationships using research data, survey information and personal experiences.
