Fasman<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">En 2009, el \u00edndice de matrimonios en Inglaterra y Gales alcanzaron sus niveles m\u00e1s bajos desde que comenzaron los registros en 1862.\u00a0En 2011, casi la mitad de todos los adultos estadounidenses eran casados, otra baja r\u00e9cord.\u00a0En 1960, aproximadamente el 72% de todos los adultos estadounidenses mayores de 18 a\u00f1os que estaban casados; para el a\u00f1o 2011 que la cuota media apenas super\u00f3 un r\u00e9cord m\u00ednimo y la media de edad a la que los hombres (28,7 a\u00f1os) y mujeres (26,5 a\u00f1os) se cas\u00f3 primero con nunca ha sido mayor.\u00a0La mediana de edad es a\u00fan mayor en los pa\u00edses ricos de Asia.\u00a0En 2010, aproximadamente un tercio de las mujeres japonesas en los 30 a\u00f1os eran solteros.\u00a0Muchas de estas mujeres probablemente nunca se casan.\u00a0Como bajan los tipos de matrimonio, la proporci\u00f3n de beb\u00e9s nacidos de madres solteras est\u00e1 aumentando.\u00a0Cuando Lyndon Johnson lanz\u00f3 la Guerra de Estados Unidos contra la Pobreza en 1964, el 93% de los ni\u00f1os nacidos en Estados Unidos han nacido de padres casados.\u00a0Para el a\u00f1o 2010, m\u00e1s del 40% de los beb\u00e9s estadounidenses nacen de madres no casadas-una acci\u00f3n que se elevaban al 52,5% de los nacimientos hispanos y 72,3% de los beb\u00e9s nacidos de mujeres no hispanas negras.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Uno bien podr\u00eda encogerse de hombros y decir que la gente puede optar por contraer matrimonio o no, y si lo hacen es su decisi\u00f3n solo.Tambi\u00e9n se debe aplaudir los factores que, al menos en el mundo rico, matrimonio retraso o ponerlo por completo, como muy mayores oportunidades educativas y profesionales para las mujeres, y el aumento de la urbanizaci\u00f3n y el aumento concomitante de los niveles de vida (tasas de matrimonio tienen sido menor entre m\u00e1s mujeres educadas, y entre los habitantes de la ciudad).\u00a0Sin duda, la disminuci\u00f3n de la religiosidad en gran parte del mundo rico tambi\u00e9n juega un papel importante en la disminuci\u00f3n de las tasas de matrimonio.\u00a0Y en la medida en que las madres solteras ya no son tratados como parias, eso tambi\u00e9n es para bien.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Pero el matrimonio no s\u00f3lo afecta a las dos personas que atan el nudo proverbial, sino que tambi\u00e9n tiene un profundo efecto en los ni\u00f1os.Una monta\u00f1a de evidencia muestra que los hijos de padres casados, en general, tienden a comportarse mucho mejor en la vida que los ni\u00f1os cuyos padres nunca se casan.\u00a0En Estados Unidos, m\u00e1s del 37% de los monoparentales, familias encabezadas por mujeres son pobres, en comparaci\u00f3n con s\u00f3lo el 6,8% de casadas familias biparentales.M\u00e1s del 70% de las familias pobres tienen padres solteros, frente a poco m\u00e1s del 25% de las familias no pobres.\u00a0Si el gobierno tiene un papel en la promoci\u00f3n del bienestar general de sus ciudadanos, y en particular si todo tipo de soportes matrimonio t\u00e1citos est\u00e1n incorporadas en el c\u00f3digo de impuestos, \u00bfpor qu\u00e9 no habr\u00eda de ir un paso m\u00e1s all\u00e1 y promover activamente el matrimonio entre sus ciudadanos?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Por otra parte, mientras que el matrimonio tiende a estar asociada con resultados mejor vida, tal vez no-matrimonio es tanto una consecuencia como una causa de la inestabilidad econ\u00f3mica.\u00a0Los salarios de los no-con estudios universitarios, hombres de clase trabajadora han ca\u00eddo dram\u00e1ticamente en los \u00faltimos 40 a\u00f1os.\u00a0Muchos solteros, parejas de bajos ingresos con ni\u00f1os reportaron haber esperado hasta que uno o ambos c\u00f3nyuges ten\u00eda un buen trabajo, y ya no ten\u00eda que depender de amigos, la familia o el gobierno para casarse, una vez que pas\u00f3, la gran mayor\u00eda de estas parejas se cas\u00f3.Desde esta perspectiva, est\u00e1 promoviendo el matrimonio como una ruta hacia la autosuficiencia econ\u00f3mica poniendo el carro delante del caballo?\u00a0\u00bfDeber\u00eda el gobierno en vez gastar sus recursos de desarrollo de las cosas que hacen m\u00e1s factible el matrimonio, tales como puestos de trabajo con salarios dignos y una mayor seguridad econ\u00f3mica para el matrimonio pobre en lugar de promoverse a s\u00ed mismo?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Estamos

In 2011, barely half of all American adults were married\u2014another record low. In 1960, roughly 72% of all American adults over the age of 18 were married; by 2011 that share barely exceeded half\u2014a record low\u2014and the median age at which both men (28.7 years) and women (26.5 years) first married has never been higher. The median age is even higher in the rich countries of Asia. In 2010, roughly one-third of Japanese women in their early 30s were single. Many of these women are unlikely ever to marry. As marriage rates decline, the share of babies born to unmarried women is rising. When Lyndon Johnson launched America\u2019s War on Poverty in 1964, 93% of American-born children were born to married parents. By 2010, more than 40% of American babies were born to unmarried mothers\u2014a share that rose to 52.5% for Hispanic births and 72.3% for babies born to non-Hispanic black women.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">One might well shrug, and say that people can choose to marry or not, and whether they do so is their choice alone. One also ought to applaud those factors that, at least in the rich world, delay marriage or put it off entirely, such as vastly increased educational and professional opportunities for women, and the rise of urbanisation and concomitant increases in living standards (marriage rates have long been lower among more educated women, and among city-dwellers). No doubt the decline in religiosity across much of the rich world also plays a part in declining marriage rates. And to the extent that single mothers are no longer treated as pariahs, that too is all to the good.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">But marriage affects not only the two people who tie the proverbial knot; it also has a profound effect on children. A mountain of evidence shows that children of married parents, on balance, tend to fare far better in life than children whose parents never marry. In America, more than 37% of single-parent, female-headed families are poor, compared with just 6.8% of married two-parent families. More than 70% of poor families have unwed parents, as opposed to just over 25% of non-poor families. If government has a role in promoting the general welfare of its citizenry\u2014and particularly if all sorts of tacit marriage supports are built into the tax code\u2014why should it not go one step further and actively promote marriage among its citizens?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">On the other hand, while marriage tends to be associated with better life results, perhaps non-marriage is as much a result as a cause of economic instability. Wages for non-college-educated, working-class men have fallen dramatically in the past 40 years. Many unmarried, low-income couples with children reported waiting until one or both partners had a good job, and no longer needed to depend on friends, family or the government to marry; once that happened, the vast majority of such couples did marry. Seen in this light, is promoting marriage as a route to economic self-sufficiency putting the cart before the horse? Should government instead spend its resources developing things that make marriage more feasible\u2014such as living-wage jobs and better economic security for the poor\u2014rather than promoting marriage itself?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">We are proud to have with us to debate these and other related issues Ron Haskins, a former senior adviser on welfare policy to President George W. Bush and now co-director of the Brookings Institution\u2019s Centre for Children and Families, and Stephanie Coontz, the author of \u201cMarriage, a History: How Love Conquered Marriage\u201d and \u201cThe Way We Never Were: American Families and the Nostalgia Trap\u201d.
