Maksimova, O.D. Formation of the Soviet marital law.

Abstract: The article includes an attempt to follow the connection between the Soviet marriage ideology, as announced by the Feminist Marxists during the October Revolution and the legislative provisions for the institution of marriage in the fi rst Code on Marriage and Family of the Soviet State of 1918, which led to abolition of religious marriages and recognition of the secular marriage in Russia. The author views the discussion of the draft Code of Laws on Civil Status, Marriage, Family and Guardianship Law at the All- Russian Central Executive Committee in September of 1918. The author singles out the key provisions of the Code of Laws on Civil Status, Marriage, Family and Guardianship of 1918 on marital relations, equality of husband and wife, right for the freedom of divorce. One may say that the key achievement of the Soviet marital relation was emancipation of women, not only within a family, but within the society as a whole. The article also contains some evaluations of Soviet marriage of Soviet and modern times.
