Summary
Leading scholars in multiple disciplines review the many possible permutations of relationship termination, including variations dependent factors such as legal status, race/ethnicity, and sexual orientation. The essays focus on the often-neglected processes that occur during the relationship, including infidelity and disaffection, and cover the legal and policy aspects of divorce. The authors also address mediation, educational programs for parents experiencing divorce, and the demographics and historical aspects of divorce. Commentaries from Alan Booth, Robert Weiss and Ellen Berscheid provide an overview of the field and recommendations for future research and policy directions.
