Divorce - the Decision of a Separation - Failure or Chance!

Summary/Abstract: For Romania, the divorce indicators had rather counterintuitive values. If the media messages are mostly centered on the Romanian family drama due to an increase in divorce indicators, a conjugality with tendencies of orientation towards forms of cohabitation other than marriage, however, the analysis of national statistical data shows that Romania has one of the smallest values of divorce. Moreover, if in the European countries, the simplification of the divorce procedures led to an increase of the divorce indicators, in Romania, the situation was reversed. Legislative changes from 2010 to 2013 regarding divorce did not, in any way, stimulate the increase of legal separations but, on the contrary, the years 2013, 2014 showed a decrease in the level of Romanian divorces (from 1.45 ‰ to 1.27 ‰) (Source: Time Online, 2018)From another perspective, the condition of divorce still implies a relative level of intolerance, which makes the decision even more uncomfortable. This makes the separation process itself want to be short and discrete. This is one of the reasons why the highest rate of divorces is achieved through the agreement of the parties (in 2017, 64.4% of divorces were through mutual agreement (Source: INS, 2018).The study aims to analyze the factors that created difficulties in deciding the marital disposition through a qualitative research, the method being the sociological inquiry and the research instrument - the structured interview.
