Sakuya: 大家好,我是Sakuya。今天我们要讲一个最近的祖鲁族离婚的例子,即皇室离婚。这个故事非常劲爆,就像一部电视剧一样。祖鲁族被英国征服后仍然存在,并保持了一定程度的自治。现任国王米苏祖鲁·夸泽尔皮尼因为要娶第四个妻子,所以向他的第一任妻子恩托科·卡米塞拉王后提出了离婚。王后试图阻止国王迎娶新妻子,声称他们在2021年的民事婚姻禁止未经离婚再婚。南非存在一种有趣的习惯法民事制度,祖鲁族的本土法律不鼓励离婚,因为婚姻不是夫妻之间的事,而是家庭之间的事。在欧洲殖民主义之前,离婚不需要法院的干预,只能以巫术、通奸或精神错乱为由才能废止婚姻。随着西方离婚观念的普及,这在坚持旧观念的文化群体中造成了新的摩擦。从技术上讲,多配偶婚姻的所有孩子都是合法的孩子,是合法的后代。如果丈夫发生意外,只有合法妻子才能决定是否拔掉插头。国家只能承认或遵守民事法律婚姻。国王说他要和妻子离婚,这样他才能娶另一个妻子,这就是其中的一部分原因。
