Description

‘Modern Family’ had been formed as a system that include people economically and psychologically. In Japan from WW2 to 1980's most of people were able to form modern family. But at the peak of modern family, there occurred controverses that modern family norms were oppressive and movements of the emancipation form modern family.<br>The change of economic system (ex. globalization) has destroyed the economic base of modern family system, and the acceleration of individualism has lowered the effectiveness of norms of modern family in developed countries after 1980's. As a result people who cannot form modern family have been increasing.<br>In Janan, unmarried rate and divorce rate have been increasing after mid-1990's. As a result, people have being divided into two categories: people who can form modern family and people who cannot. But in Japan there are no models that supply economic and social inclusion except modern family, so people have a desire to form modern family.<br>The divide will effect not only family studies but other empirical sociological studies.
