The evolution of divorce in Italy

From the demographic analysis on divorce over the last 50 years, it can be statistically shown that marriage between single and single has always been the largest share of celebrations, with 93.5% in 1972 and 85.7% in 2009. We can observe that their marriages decreased from 392,000 in 1972 to 197,740 in 2009. Among these marriages, 175,043 refer to the marriages of both Italian citizens. The nearly 67% reduction resulted in a drop in the 16,000 cases studied between 2008 and 2009. The interest of couples in joining the marriage is measured by calculating the first-marriage rate, making it possible to relate the first marriages to both the male and female population. We know that this reduction has been developing since the mid-1970s. In Italy, the decline in first marriages coincides with the situation in other countries, especially in countries where marriages have so far represented a very, very scattered system. According to the Report on Italian Marriages in 2013, the number of marriages has decreased by 200,000 per year, and both religious and civil marriages have decreased. The comment on the statistical data stated is that all this derives from the professional and economic conditions in which we live. We have seen the shortage of jobs and falling incomes, two fundamental factors that influence and, above all, hinder long-term family projects. Just as marriages are declining, so too is fertility negatively affected. Indeed, after the peak of births in the late 1960s, the birth rate in Western and European countries is declining. In addition to the implementation of divorce in 1970, the influence on this decline in births should also be emphasized, including voluntary abortion introduced in 1978. With the streamlining of marriages that began between 1960 and 1970, the institution of divorce in a measured way. Not all separated couples, in fact, proceed with divorce. The decrease in the number of births is also accompanied by a decrease in marriages. Between 1974 and 1981, this situation further aggravated the decline by nearly 30% and voluntary terminations of pregnancy persisted. In recent decades, the demographic and social conditions of many European countries have continued to change, especially in the concept of marriage, because divorce has almost eliminated half of marriages, and more and more couples are united by consensus, and therefore couples born post divorce are growing
