As divorces take place increasingly across national borders, many former partners find themselves in complex situations entangled in more than one state during which some categories of difference intersect, (re)creating inequalities and precarity. Through a socio-legal perspective combined with transnational and intersectional approaches, the present study elucidates the link between these intersections and the legal aspects of divorce. Examining Filipino migrant women's divorces in transnational social spaces, it unveils that social class, gender, legal statuses, and filiation intersect in specific situations: when the legal problem arises or implicates communal properties in another country; when a family member residing abroad interferes in the divorce settlement; and when the divorce process occurs in the context of domestic violence and involves an institution espousing women's spatial mobility to protect them. In such situations, the social class differences between partners become particularly pronounced (rather than their supposed cultural differences) and intersect with other categories.

跨国婚姻解体中的交叉类别：社会法律视角

随着离婚越来越多地跨越国界，许多前伴侣发现自己陷入了一个以上的复杂情况，在这些情况下，某些类别的差异交叉，（重新）造成不平等和不稳定。通过结合跨国和交叉方法的社会法律视角，本研究阐明了这些交叉点与离婚法律方面之间的联系。考察菲律宾移民妇女在跨国社会空间中的离婚情况，揭示了社会阶层、性别、法律地位和亲子关系在特定情况下相互交叉：当法律问题出现或涉及另一个国家的公共财产时；居住在国外的家庭成员干预离婚协议时；当离婚过程发生在家庭暴力的背景下，并且涉及支持女性空间流动性以保护她们的机构时。在这种情况下，合作伙伴之间的社会阶层差异变得特别明显（而不是他们所谓的文化差异）并与其他类别相交。
