Abstract
El fenómeno de los matrimonios celebrados con fines ajenos a la institución matrimonial es ya ampliamente conocido en la sociedad civil. Se trata de matrimonios en los que falta una auténtica voluntad conyugal, y que se han denominado por la doctrina como matrimonios por conveniencia, de complacencia, blancos, entre otras calificaciones. Actualmente, esta temática se ha visto renovada por los numerosos movimientos migratorios que han dado un matiz distinto al debate, y es bajo esa perspectiva desde donde comienza el presente análisis.
Este trabajo examina algunos aspectos problemáticos del tema, partiendo desde el inexistente tratamiento legal del fenómeno en Chile, culminando con lo que sería la sanción jurídica del mismo. Al efecto, la autora desarrolla algunas de sus razones en orden a considerar la inexistencia jurídica como posible sanción legal.
The phenomenon of marriages celebrated with ends foreign to the institution of matrimony is widely known in civil society. These are marriages, known as ‘marriages of convenience’, ‘sham marriages’, etc., in which there is no genuine intent to enter into the married state. Today, this phenomenon has once more become a topical issue due to the numerous migratory movements that have given the debate a new angle, and the present analysis addresses this perspective. This paper examines some problematic aspects of the topic, starting from the absence of any laws dealing with the phenomenon in Chile, which would logically culminate in legal sanctions against commission of this deed. The author develops some of his reasons in order to consider the non-existence of laws or legal sanctions.
