Bookings are now open for an exciting conference: "Beyond Marriage: Philosophy, Politics Law" 24-25 May 2019, University of Cambridge Convenor: Clare Chambers, University of Cambridge There have been significant changes to the institution of marriage in recent years, with many countries introducing same-sex marriage, civil partnerships, and other forms of non-traditional union.
