EconLog | Library of Economics and Liberty: "If your question is, "Are Jack and Mary married?," an arbiter might exist.  After all, to be married is nothing more than to be considered married by a society.  If the people in a society accept the Grand Poobah as the arbiter of marriage, then whatever he decides about two people's marital status is their true martial status.  "
