Marriage Customs/Samoan & Amish

Abstract: A 5 page research paper that investigates the courting and marriage patterns of Samoa and the Amish. The Samoan culture, located in the South Pacific, and the Amish, located in the Northeastern United States are naturally quite different. However, as both these societies are patriarchal cultures, the writer argues that they also have features in common and that this is particularly evident in their marriage practices and customs. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
