| description | The present study analyzes the evolution of the divorces in Romania over
the period 1992-2023, aiming to investigate the social, economic, and cultural factors
that have shaped family behaviors and decisions regarding the dissolution of
marriages. Using an approach based on official statistical data, the research explores
significant differences between urban and rural areas, identifying divergent and
convergent trends regarding divorce rates, influenced by modernization, urbanization,
and economic crises. The study also examines the impact of economic migration and
access to education on family behavior, highlighting how these elements have
contributed to structural changes in marriages and divorces in different regions of the
country. The analysis focuses on factors such as the age group of spouses, marriage
duration, number of minor children, and the geographical structure of divorces,
providing a deep understanding of the social dynamics and changes related to the
stability of marital relationships. Another important aspect of the research is the
evolution of the woman's role in marriage, influenced by increased economic
independence and changes in the social perception of marriage. Additionally, regional disparities are discussed, varying depending on cultural traditions, urbanization level,
and the economic development of counties, as well as common challenges faced by
families in different areas of Romania. The study emphasizes the complexity of
divorces, offering a comprehensive perspective on current and future trends, as well
as the factors that influence marriage and divorce decisions, within a constantly
changing social and economic context. The research conclusions will contribute to a
deeper understanding of this dynamic phenomenon, as well as to the formulation of
public policies better adapted to the contemporary realities of Romanian society. |
