Early marriage has significant social, political, and health implications that impact individuals, families, and communities. Socially, early marriage often hinders opportunities for education, personal development, and economic independence, and can perpetuate cycles of poverty and gender inequality. Politically, it raises concerns about human rights, legal frameworks, and access to justice, as many countries struggle to address the legal and cultural norms that enable child marriage. In terms of health, early marriage is linked to increased risks of maternal and child health complications, as young brides are more likely to experience early pregnancies, unsafe childbirth, and long-term physical and psychological effects. Addressing the implications of early marriage requires efforts from governments, communities, and international organizations to promote legal reforms, education, and healthcare access, while challenging the cultural practices that sustain this practice. Social, Political, and Health Implications of Early Marriage explores early marriage and its multiple consequences on teenage girls. It offers solutions for early marriage prevention and explores efforts to improve the life of teenagers worldwide. This book covers topics such as mental health, policymaking, and psychology, and is a useful resource for sociologists, psychologists, policymakers, government officials, academicians, scientists, and researchers.
