It’s neither. In monocultures there tends to be concensus, which allows it to happen. Many people believe arranged marriages are “better” for their particular societies. They may even have a point.

Arranged marriages were used to set peace between two or more regions. The marriage between Princess Catherine of France & King Henry V is an example of that. It was a negotiation like any other. Lucrezia Borgia was used as a "diplomatic" pawn all her life.
