Marriage And Divorce By Race
[ send me this paper ]
Marriage, as an institution, has seen a great many changes throughout history. It has grown in popularity at times and waned in others. The reasons for these changes are not always clear - nor are the differences in marriage and divorce rates when considered by racial classifications. One would assume that social conditions, such as during a time of war, or economic considerations would loom large in determining the rise and fall of marriage and, or, divorce rates. This 5 page paper argues that Marriage, overall, has declined in the past few decades, many believe as a result of the popular option of cohabitation and single parent households. Divorce rates have risen over this same time frame among Americans of all races and ethnic groups. African American couples have been affected by these trends to a larger degree than other ethnic groups. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
