Le Bilan du Divorce by Hugues Le Roux
"Le Bilan du Divorce" by Hugues Le Roux is a sociological study written in the late 19th century. The book explores the impact of divorce on contemporary marriage and societal norms, investigating whether the availability of divorce contributes to a general disinterest in marriage among the youth. It engages in a critical examination of the legal, social, and emotional implications of divorce, aiming to provide an insightful analysis rather than merely a
defense or attack on the institution. At the start of the work, the author introduces the premise by highlighting a common concern expressed during discussions about marriage: the belief that divorce may be a significant factor in the diminishing enthusiasm for marriage among young people. In search of a clearer understanding, he embarks on an investigation into divorce's prevalence, its primary motives, and the consequences it has on individuals and families. The opening chapters emphasize a methodical approach to studying divorce, positing that true incompatibility, often masked by lighter allegations such as "injury" or "excess," primarily drives many divorces. Throughout, Le Roux establishes a tone of inquiry fueled by a personal skepticism towards divorce, while recognizing its relevance in modern society. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
