동성결합과 결혼체계의 자체생산

Abstract

the same-sex union and autopoiesis of marriage system Oh, Jung-Jin Today, several nations grant same-sex union with effect similar to marriage. Moreover, there are the states which recognize same-sex marriage. But this paper upon the concepts of Niklas Luhman's system and autopoiesis reveals that such form allowing same-sex union is the way of autopoeisis of marriage system : the marriage system founded hetero-sex and legal marriage adapts selectively toward the environment of same-sex relationship and reproduces marriage system itself. And even the case same-sex couples can use the name of marriage, that is the one marriage system makes new boundary of same-sex marriage within intimate relationship. Therefore, if hoping for changing relationship and marriage, it will be better to deregulate hetero-sex legal marriage itself, guarantee multiple alternatives and go beyond marriage system.
