Résumé :

This introduction piece sets the tone of the volume on intimate diversity in Belgium in three ways. Firstly, it takes stock of scholarly works on the diversity of conjugal mixedness in the context of migration, which highlights general tendencies and remaining gaps to be addressed in future studies. By doing so, it brings to the fore the originality of the volume. Secondly, adopting a phenomenological approach, it presents the volume's analytical lens of “situated mixedness” – a framework that locates both intimate diversity, in general, and the lived experiences of the partners, in particular, within wider social processes. And thirdly, it presents the overall characteristics of the volume by positioning it in spatio-temporal contexts of conjugal mixedness situations in Belgium and by underscoring its methodological background and empirical contents.
