| The family is the cell of society.The harmony and stability of marriage and family is closely related to the stability and unity of the state and society.As an important crisis event in marriage life course,divorce is not only an important way to understand the changes of Chinese society and marriage and family,but also an important way to explore the law of marriage stability,reduce unreasonable divorce and the consequences of divorce.Divorce is essentially the social end of the relationship between men and women,and the freedom of divorce is the relative freedom of sociality and individuality.Based on the overall divorce risk analysis framework(the individual characteristics I-family process F-social structure S)and adhered to the process analysis dimension,this study attempts to bring divorce research back to the field of "family" : Firstly,this paper systematically expounds the logical relationship between parents' factors and divorce risk,and makes a detailed analysis of the general situation of divorce,as well as demographic,sociocultural and spatial geographic features at the macro level in China since the 1990s;Secondly,it empirically analyses the influence of parental factors on the divorce risk from three aspects: the socioeconomic status of the parents,parental heterogeneity,the relationship between the parents and the offspring(intergenerational relationship);Finally,it briefly reviews the main conclusions of this study,discusses expansibility the nature of divorce and the regeneration logic of new patriarchal rights.Based on the above analysis,this study mainly draws the following conclusions:1.Divorce in China is characterized by high level,steady growth,younger and unbalanced.From the total number of divorces,it has been rising steadily and slowly since 1978,and the peak of divorce has not appeared so far.Compared with the major countries in the world,the China's crude divorce rate is in the top position in the world,and the growth trend can't be ignored.From the perspective of divorce structure,the peak age of divorced population fluctuates with time,and currently appears between 35-44 years old,in which the peak age of divorce of men tends to be younger,and women tend to move backwards.The divorce rate of people with different educational levels is "inverted U" mode,the divorce rate of highly educated people is decreasing year by year.The divorce rate of women in middle and upper occupational class is generally higher than that of men,while that of men in lower occupational class is higher than that of women.The divorce rate of urban women is higher than that of men,while the divorce rate of rural men is much higher than that of women.The spatial distribution of divorced population shows a gradient distribution from west to East and a general distribution pattern of "high in the north and low in the south".Northeast and northwest regions have become the "two highlands" of divorce in China,While the South and the areas along the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River are the "two depressions".2.The influence of parental status on divorce risk shows U-shaped fluctuation from strong to weak and then to strong.Although the influence of parents' socioeconomic status on divorce risk is decreasing,patriarchy has not left the nuclear family from beginning to end.The mother's influence on the divorce risk is generally stronger than that of the father,that is,mother's effect is greater than father's effect.The risk of divorce is higher with father's middle and higher professional prestige and junior high school education or above,with mother's high professional prestige and elementary school education.The influence of parents' social economic status on divorce risk has undergone a U-shaped fluctuation process from strong to weak and then to strong,in which the father effect has gradually increased and the mother presents an inverted U-shaped trend from weak to strong and then weakened.The influence of male parent's social economic status of on divorce risk is greater than that of female parent,that is,the effect of male parent is stronger than that of female parent.However,with the improvement of female's status in the core family,it is predicted that the effect of female parent will further increase in the future.3.Parental heterogeneity has less impact on divorce risk than couple heterogeneity.The influence of Post-generative socioeconomic status heterogeneity(couple heterogeneity)on divorce risk is obviously stronger than that of Preendogenous Socioeconomic Status(Parental heterogeneity),but the explanatory power of these two heterogeneities is increasing.The marital stability of homogeneous marriage matching based on husband and wife's pre-endowment is stronger than that of heterogeneous marriage matching,that is,the stability of parental homosexual marriage is stronger than that of parental heterogeneous marriage.Before 1960 and in rural society,the divorce risk of matching marriage which is higher than that of male parents' family income higher than female parents' and the equal matching marriage.In the city,the divorce risk of male parents with higher education and higher professional prestige is higher than that of female marriages in different periods.4.Intergenerational relationships which is intimacy within a certain distance has protective effects on marital stability.The relationship between husband and wife does not simply depend on the intimacy and alienation of the couple's emotions,but also on the intimacy of intergenerational relationships.Keeping intimacy within a certain distance with parents can reduce the divorce risk.Living with male parents increases the risk of divorce,while living with female parents increases marital stability.The risk divorce varies V-shaped with the living distance between Parents and Couples,and it is lower when the living distance if maintained within 0.5-1 hours of driving distance.When the frequency of interaction,meeting and communication with the parents is too high or too low,the divorce risk of the couple will increase significantly,and there will be a U-shaped relationship between the two.the couple with the strong interference and non-interventional on first marriage by parents in urban is higher divorce risk,while marriage stability is better with the non-interventional on first marriage by parents in rural.Couples who provide too much or too little financial support to their parents are at higher divorce risk,and Couples providing too much daily care and emotional support will increase the divorce risk.Couples provided too much financial support,housework care and emotional support by the parents have higher divorce risk,but the divorce risk is reduced when the female parents provide too much housework care and emotional support. |
