TY - JOUR ID - 407220 AU - Katrňák, Tomáš PY - 2002 TI - Structural Causes of the Decline in the Number of Marriages in the Czech Society JF - New Currents: East European Arts, Politics & Humanities VL - 1 IS - 1 SP - 173 EP - 173 PB - University of Michigan KW - marriage market KW - czech society KW - nuptuality N2 - 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 on the 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.
