Single parent families after divorce : a discussion of the causes and possible legal solutions to the 'feminisation of poverty'Myers, Alexandra Ann 11 1900 (has links)
In recent times, the incidence of single-parent families has increased rapidly with the
principle cause being the rising divorce rate. The vast majority of these single-parent
families are headed by women and a predominantly common factor in these
households is the extent to which they are financially impoverished after divorce. This
situation has given rise to the phenomenon known as the feminisation of poverty,
where women are seen to make up the majority of the poor. This study examines the
many varied factors contributing to this phenomenon and discusses some of the
general solutions offered world-wide to address these poverty-stricken households.
An assessment is then made of those legal solutions most appropriate for South Africa / Law / LL.M.
