There is a new trend in the 1980s and 1990s after marriage.
chinanews.com Li Chunling, a researcher at the Institute of Sociology of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences,
the new trend of contemporary youth marriage and love,
rapid economic growth and rapid social change, so that people's living standards have been greatly improved. There will be significant changes in the living environment, and people's attitudes and concepts will also change. This has led to an increasingly prominent intergenerational phenomenon. The youth group, represented by the post-80s and the post-90s, has become a representative of new social things and new trends, and naturally becomes an important research object for sociologists to observe social changes and the trend of future social development.
two main sociality characteristics of contemporary Chinese youth: prominent intergenerational differences and strong stratum differentiation
the study of young people over the last 10 years reflects the two main social characteristics of contemporary Chinese youth: prominent intergenerational differences and strong stratum differentiation. On the one hand, a large number of studies show significant differences between the younger generation and the middle-aged and elderly groups. In fact, even among young people, there are differences between post-80s and post-90s, and there are differences between 85 and 85 after 1980s. On the other hand, the social differentiation of youth groups is more prominent. Young migrant workers and college students and college graduates are two of the largest subgroups of the youth group. Their educational experience, employment and living conditions and the opportunities for future development are different. The post-80s generation is the generation of the double brand of intergenerational and stratum, and the intergenerational generality fails to break the reproduction mode of social inequality, and the intergenerational culture of the cross stratum can not break through the stratum division in the field of social life.
class inequality between urban and rural inequality and family background has affected the educational opportunities of the younger generation, and the phenomenon of educational stratification is very prominent. The differentiation of education eventually leads to differences in employment and socioeconomic status among young people. In the market competition of modern society, education plays a key role in determining the future social and economic status of an individual. The inequality of educational opportunities, however, makes children from rural families and disadvantaged groups disadvantaged in the competition for educational opportunities, thus strengthening the class status reproduction. A large number of empirical studies on youth occupation and social mobility prove that the reproduction of social economic status has led to the social division of youth groups.
the Internet has greatly increased the uncertainty of the socialization of young people by
over the past 20 years. The Internet has developed at an amazing speed and penetrated all aspects of the life of young people, making the impact of the Internet on young people a key point in the study of young people. Young people are known as the generation of the Internet. They are the most active people involved in the Internet. Young researchers have studied the profound influence of the rise of the network society on the life, concept, behavior and culture of the young people from many aspects.
some studies have pointed out that the Internet has formed the Internet community of young people. These virtual communities have the functions of media, entertainment and socializing, which are characterized mainly by the low age of the members, the diversity of culture and the utility of functions. Youth form unique culture through interaction, emotion and thought through network community.
some other studies note that the youth identity of the network age has a dilemma: the tension between the youth's virtual identity and the reality identity; the uncertainty of the youth's social identity; the resistance to the youth's social identity is increased; the social identity of the young is faced with the transformation of the field. It has also been found that the Internet has fully penetrated into the daily life of young people. Network consumption, network communication, network leisure entertainment and network political participation have become the new fashion and new mainstream of youth life style. The new way of life has brought new life experience to young people, and has also had a great impact on the socialization of young people. The emergence and rapid development of Internet and the transformation of social information acquisition and processing methods have greatly increased the uncertainty of youth socialization process and results.
the pattern of contemporary youth marriage and love has new trend, the traditional pattern of marriage and marriage of men and women has changed, the phenomenon of trial marriage, property notarization and so on is increasing
the difference of concept and behavior between generations caused by rapid social and economic changes is particularly evident in marriage and love, which has also become a hot topic in the study of young people. Problems, especially some new phenomena of marriage and love, have aroused the interest of researchers.
some scholars have noticed that the phenomenon of parental forced marriage and leftover women lead to anxiety and anxiety of young people. This is a kind of Chinese style marriage anxiety. It is a conflict between generations that causes marriage problems due to various reasons at a certain stage of social development.
with marriage anxiety is the increasing proportion of single young people in married youth. The unmarried situation of older young people has aroused widespread social concern. This phenomenon is more prominent in big cities such as Beijing and Shanghai, and the number of left and leftover males is huge. Behind the emergence of marriage anxiety, there are multiple factors such as population structure, economic conditions, social attitudes, communication ways, family pressure and so on.
many studies have found that contemporary young people's marriage and marriage patterns are different from traditional concepts. Based on the analysis of the data of the survey on the status of Chinese women in the three periods of 1990, 2000 and 2010, it is found that the mode of marriage difference in Chinese couples has changed greatly. The traditional mode of marriage and marriage of men and women has changed, the marriage of men and women is obviously reduced, and the marriage of women with big men and women is obviously increased, which may be due to the birth nature of our country. It is not related to factors such as persistent high attitudes and changes in marital attitudes. The phenomenon of flash marriage and flash off among young people is increasing. Trial marriage has become a undercurrent for single young people to pursue ideal marriage. The importance of economic conditions is increasing among young couples, and property notarization has become a helpless choice for young people to guard against the risk of marriage and love.
