    Abstract

    This book is about changing marriage patterns, including other forms of partnering, in a major region of Southeast Asia. Changing marriage patterns are an integral part of broader changes in family institutions, which are, themselves, part of a broader matrix of social change. Though the book focuses on marriage, it should be viewed in the context of fundamental and far-reaching changes in the societies of this region. To set the scene, later in this introductory chapter, a brief survey of the changing socio-economic context will be provided.
