Structural Causes of the Decline in the Number of Marriages in the Czech Society
Original language description
Since 1989 Czech society has undergone substantial demographic changes. Marriage rate has been falling rapidly. This paper deals with the question why this has happened. Some demographers and sociologists have suggested that young people are only postponing marriage because Czech society is currently going through a transitional period. But the expected increase in the number of marriages concluded by single people has not happened - not even ten years after the Velvet revolution. This paper focuses onthe changes in the mating habits of the Czech population and tries to explain the social phenomenon of the growth in the number of single people from the structural and social causes which underline this behaviour on the part of young people.
