  • 继承遗孀,或稱收繼婚,是父權社會中的一種婚姻形式,指寡妇嫁给已故丈夫的一个亲屬(通常是丈夫的兄弟或兒子)。寡妇继承的例子可以在古代和圣经时代的娶寡嫂的婚姻形式中发现。这种行为使寡妇和她的孩子能得到财政上的支持,并保持她已故的丈夫的家族的财富。在家庭中,女人通常负责家务,而男性要保证提供经济来源。若男性死去,女人就无法支持其他家庭成员的生活。在这时,这种机制就会被启动。而翁姑又不希望有人带走家族的血脉和财产,因此她必须嫁给原家庭内的成员。 这种习俗可以确保财富不离开以男性为中心的家庭。它有时也会作为一种保护寡妇和她的孩子的方式。 古犹太教中存在着寡妇继承,在印度,类似的形式亦非常普遍。继承遗孀在某些非洲的种族,例如在生活在肯尼亚和乌干达在维多利亚湖一带的Luo族中也非常普遍。 (zh)
  • La herencia de viuda, es un tipo de matrimonio en que una viuda se casa con un pariente de su difunto marido, a menudo con uno de sus hermanos. Puede tener varias formas y funciones en diferentes culturas, que prestan proporciones relativas de protección social, y control, la viuda y sus hijos. Quizás puede tener el derecho de exigir la familia extensa de su difunto marido que le facilite con un nuevo hombre, o por el contrario puede tener la obligación de aceptar el hombre presentado por la familia, sin ninguna perspectiva real de rechazarlo, sí su familia biológica no la acepta en su hogar.
