- Description
- 'First, this report updates existing knowledge on this topic, which is incomplete and often contradicting. Second, this research analyses the overall European context, looking particularly into cases of the UK, Germany, the Netherlands and Ireland. To this date studies mainly focussed on the US context. Third, the report provides a clear .definition of the MOB phenomenon. For the purpose of this report, the MOB phenomenon is defined as follows: A man (the ‘Mail-Order Sponsor’) pays an international marriage agency — usually operating a website — to find a bride/wife across borders (the ‘Mail-Order Bride’), from a less developed country outside the EU. The intent is that she subsequently joins him in his country of residence (migration). .The international marriage agency profits from bringing potential partners in contact with each other and facilitating the marriage.'

- Description
- Author extends a previous qualitative research on female yo-yo dieters/weight cyclers in the UK. Out of nine participants in the previous study, author has made use of feminist perspectives to further analyze the data of four participants that was previously derived via thematic analysis. Feminist analysis revealed that initiation of frequent dieting episodes is not merely to lose weight: rather complex control and identity issues as well as negative emotions play a role in triggering yo-yo dieting in some women. Furthermore, the similarity of these manifestations to eating disorders is discussed.
