PIL.OTv0.62.2
Amanda Dager approaches international divorce as a reconfiguration of family mobility, arguing that jurisdiction, applicable law, the international effectiveness of decisions and immigration dependencies need to be analysed together. Her analysis covers recognition of civil status, immigration, custody and the international movement of children, maintenance, assets and documentation.
Drawing on qualitative analysis of legislation, case law, doctrine and documents, Dager focuses on Brazilian law, the US system and instruments of the Hague Conference on Private International Law. She proposes a matrix for post-divorce legal replanning intended to identify connections between family, immigration and international mobility before problems arise.
