THE INTRODUCTION OF MARRIAGE,
QUASI-MARRIAGE, AND SEMI-MARRIAGE
FOR SAME-SEX COUPLES IN
EUROPEAN COUNTRIES
Kees Waaldijk*
I. INTRODUCTION
The legal recognition of same-sex partners living together as husbands or wives has gradually emerged in the law of several European countries.' Initially, this was done through the process of recognizing de facto
cohabitation for a number of specific legal purposes. The earliest examples of such recognition and regulation of same-sex partnerships are found in
• Dr.Kees Waaldijk is a senior lecturer and research fellow at the E.M. Meijers Institute of Legal Studies of the Faculty of Law of Leiden University in the Netherlands. For further information please visit http://www.emmeijers.nl/waaldijk.This article is based on the text of an affidavit written by the author in October 2003, at the request of the Department of Justice Canada, for the Supreme Court of Canada, in the matter of a reference by the Governor in Council concerning the proposal for an act respecting certain aspects of legal capacity for marriage for civil purposes, as set out in Order in Council P.c. 2003-1055, dated July 16,2003. In this reference the Canadian government is asking the Supreme Court of Canada for an advisory opinionon proposed legislation to extend the definition of civil marriage to same-sex couples (after appellate courts in two common law provinces ruled that the exclusion of same-sex partners from marriage is unconstitutional, and a superior court in civil law Quebec ruled the province's statutory bar to be similarly unconstitutional). The hearing on the reference is scheduled for October 2004.
1. This evolution has also taken place in Canada, Australia, South Africa, and elsewhere.
