REVIVING MARRIAGE: COULD WE? SHOULD WE?

Abstract

Marriage has become controversial. Some experts argue that marriage is fundamental and foundational. In their view, the decline of marriage lies at the heart of a wide range of social problems; these experts urge state efforts to revive marriage and promote marital commitment. Other experts argue that marriage is merely a label; in their view, the state should not only eschew marriage promotion, but abandon marriage regulation altogether.
