In these cases, killing the woman is a way for the family to enforce the institution of arranged marriages. This being the case, her male relatives may be ridiculed or harassed and any of her siblings may find it impossible to enter into a marriage. Enforcement Ī woman who refuses to go through with an arranged marriage, tries to leave an arranged marriage via divorce or is suspected of any kind of "immoral" behaviour, may be considered to have dishonored her entire family. In most other parts of the world, arranged marriages continue to varying degrees and increasingly in quasi-arranged form, along with autonomous marriages.

Similar historical dynamics are claimed in other parts of the world. As immigrants settled in and melded into a new culture, arranged marriages shifted first to quasi-arranged marriages where parents or friends made introductions and the couple met before the marriage over time, the marriages among the descendants of these immigrants shifted to autonomous marriages driven by individual's choice, dating and courtship preferences, along with an increase in interracial marriages. These marriages among immigrants were typically arranged by parents or close relatives from the country of their origin. They were sometimes called "picture-bride marriages" among Japanese-American immigrants because the bride and groom knew each other only through the exchange of photographs before the day of their marriage. Until the first half of the 20th century, arranged marriages were common in migrant families in the United States. Īrranged marriages were the norm in Russia before the early 20th century, most of which were endogamous. The boy and girl were typically told to get married, without a right to demur, even if they had never met each other until the wedding day. A marriage was a negotiation and decision between parents and other older members of two families. In China, arranged marriages (baoban hunyin, 包办婚姻) – sometimes called blind marriages (manghun, 盲婚) – were the norm before the mid-20th century. Some historical exceptions are known, such as courtship and betrothal rites during the Renaissance period of Italy and Gandharva Vivah in the Vedic period of India. Typically, marriages were arranged by parents, grandparents or other close relatives and trusted friends.
