New China 27 Years (1949-1966) Of Marriage Culture In Beijing

The Communist Party of China's reform of the traditional institution of marriage was on the basis of the Soviet Union regulations, and the practice of the Agrarian Revolutionary War, the liberation war. It has been a continuous improvement and modification of the process. From the content point of view, it is a marriage and family law. Marriage is the main line, involving many aspects of family relationships. Quite a long time after the promulgation of the Marriage Law, the central and local regimes and various mass organizations paid a tremendous effort for its implementation and made the embodies of the freedom of marriage, monogamy, so equality between men and women becomes a reality. The implementation process mainly depended on the legal means. It played an important role in the abolition of the feudal marriage system, but we also saw another result, the state powered directly into the personal, traditional parental authority to affect a person has gradually declined. After quite a long period of time, the politicization of the marriage culture was increasingly apparent.In the new era of Beijing, people tended to mate within the scope of similar group in the17years after the found of People's Republic of China. The people's concept of marriage was also generally suffering from the impact of the mode of "male higher than female". However, the mode was a threshold. Through the ideological education of the proletariat and political mobilization, the country broke the traditional mode of male higher than female in the new era. But the effect did not seem very clear. From the perspective of the development trends of the age of marriage patterns, the age of marriage was gradually increasing. The gap of the marriageable age in men and women was gradually narrowing. Late marriage was to reduce fertility in the early1960s. The country positively educated and promoted late marriage, and denounce the ideology of material desires, but the political orientation as a potential social wealth virtually penetrate the material interests. In particular, the women tried to move to the center of the circle of social power, the trend had two results for men, one was provide mate opportunity for those poor conditions compared with the range of members of this group of men. Another was that causing an imbalance for those at the bottom of the vulnerable to adverse factors. During the period, the number of the free love was gradually increasing, but a variety of concepts hindered young people's daily interactions. The society also did not provide adequate conditions and opportunities for young people's freedom to get to know and get along. On the one hand, the country propagandized the freedom, on the other hand, limited love. Not only opposed to puppy love, but also to promoted the youth to sacrifice individual interests for the national collective. Various discourses and ideological values excluded individuals. After the country's great publicity and advocacy, the old-fashioned wedding procedures and rituals were essentially been canceled or simplified. People did not spend time making too many preparations, wedding and everyday life were not much out of line, no longer had a unique experience in life. Because marriage was a social behavior, people used wedding to extend the social relations and construct social networks. Social network became social resources. On the one hand, people inherited the existing resources of the community like relatives, on the other hand, they expanded resources in interaction with others such as fellow students, comrades, friends and colleagues. The people pulled in all the people who required constant relationship. This ceremony integrated the relationship such as families and external relations. This led to the wedding in the ideal state of the people's need. Wedding gradually form the authority of the state to the home authority, the wedding ceremony was more and more simplistic and politicized. At the same time, men and women formed a new gender identity. Traditional division of roles and social expectations of women was gradually disappearing. The position of women began to rise, men and women has become much of equality. During the period, people partied to break taboos, and had more autonomy in divorce. The reason of divorce was very complicated, including material terms, mental and emotional aspects. The forced arrangement, the sale of marriage, bigamy, child brides, new love lack the necessary knowledge and experience of family problems. In addition, there were special circumstances, such as the physical defects, incurable or criminal sentencing and filed for divorce. Various factors could be attributed to two things. First, it was the unequal transactions, such as cultural differences, social status differences, age differences and so on. Second, the people could not adjust the conflict. All these caused divorce. In fact, the causes of divorce were not limited to between husband and wife, but the result of the role of the society factors.In fact, the factor of divorce was not limited to between husband and wife, but the result of the role of the family and society. However, the general trend was that the divorce caused by arrangement and amusement were less and less and caused by bad feelings was more and more. The pursuit of people's marriage gradually was shifted to the mental and emotional needs. However, the divorce rate was different among the different levels of professional and cultural gender. Men applied for divorce basically to get rid of the material needs, and they seek more spiritual and emotional needs. There were some women applying for divorce largely in the evolvement and improvement the status of the material living conditions, mental and emotional needs became lower. Up from the age analysis, age and the divorce rate, the number of years after marriage and divorce was inversely proportional relationship. The main way of divorce was agreed, and the woman requested divorce firstly. So women reduced the dependence of the male. During this period, each individual, whether in private life or at work, everyone was under the supervision of the organization. It was also in the people's divorce. The state gave a positive education and guidance to emphasize the interests of the country, highlighting the class nature of marriage. It was also more complex in the implementation of marriage. The quality of law enforcement personnel to be improved, the enforcement procedures to be strict, the law enforcement has yet to be perfect. Under the protection of the law in the country, whether of widows remarrying, widowers remarry, or remarry of divorce gradually broke through the bondage of traditional moral values and interference. Of course, the process was much more complex than the first marriage. It needed to carefully consider from various. Even if remarried, people had to face new marriage and new problems. Besides, People had to handle previous marriage and family relations. It can clearly be seen, the experience of marriage is complicated and endless.
