Abstract

Chinese modernization influenced public views on marriage. Improved education, democratization, women's emancipation, economic development, and the new emphasis on one’s self-actualization were the main factors that influenced marriage relationships. Changing attitudes and behaviors are a challenge to societal stability. Young people seem to turn away from previous traditions, conceiving marriage as an economic alliance, and look for romantic love and intimacy. Using the data from the National Bureau of Standards (NBS) of China, this paper explores the resulting gender disparities, the improvements in education and the parallel increase in divorce rates, decrease in marriage rates and birth rates, as indicators of the changing conceptions on intimate relationships and marriage.
中国婚姻观的变化
中国的现代化影响了公众对婚姻的看法。教育水平的提高、民主化、妇女解放、经济发展以及对自我实现的新重视是影响婚姻关系的主要因素。态度和行为的改变是对社会稳定的挑战。年轻人似乎抛弃了以往的传统,将婚姻视为一种经济联盟,转而寻求浪漫的爱情和亲密关系。本文利用中国国家标准局(NBS)的数据,探讨了由此产生的性别差异、教育水平的提高以及离婚率的上升、结婚率和出生率的下降,作为亲密关系和婚姻观念变化的指标。
