This dissertation studies the role that marriage plays in contemporary Jordanian youths' collective action and social imaginaries. I argue that marriage should be studied as part of politics as it is linked to popular perceptions regarding the state's function (or dysfunction) in Jordan. In addition, I argue that marriage needs to be considered as a potential site for youths' socio-political agency, as marriage involves not only practical considerations about money and employment but also strategies, practices, and efforts to realize their imagination of what state-society relationship should be (social imaginaries).
