Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To understand the changes in the processes of marriage formation and dissolution, we (1) described the trends and differentials across generations, spaces and socio-economic groups, (2) constructed and tested explanatory models, and (3) evaluated the outcomes of these changes. We employed both quantitative and qualitative approaches by analyzing micro data, and conducting in-depth interviews. We found that younger generations are less likely to get married and more likely to get divorced because of lack of the intimate relationships and economic bases. Following factors are partly responsible for our findings; unbalanced sex ratios in the local marriage market, decline in matchmaking social functions and conflicts between existing systems such as asymmetric gender systems and advanced socio-economic systems. However, we also found the newly emerging family patterns, i.e. highly educated or those living in urban areas have an advantage to form partnership in the latest period.
