Cultural Sociology of Divorce: An Encyclopedia

Cultural Sociology of Divorce is a strong choice for children and families who want practical, reliable insight into psychology.

While the formal definition of divorce may be concise and straightforward (legal termination of a marital union, dissolving bonds of matrimony between parties), the effects are anything but, particularly when children are involved. The Americans for Divorce Reform estimates that “40 or possibly even 50 percent of marriages will end in divorce if current trends continue.” Outside the U.S., divorce rates have markedly increased across developed countries. Divorce and its effects are a significant social factor in our culture and others.
