Abstract: | In this presentation, a seven stage model of divorce is presented that the author believes has universal applicability. None-theless, the specifics which characterize each stage may vary from country to country, from one socioeconomic class to another, and in accordance with the dictates of the church — if it is a dominant force in a given society. An historical perspective is taken throughout, and a family life cycle model is implicit. Both divorce therapy and divorce mediation are addressed.She is the immediate past-president of the International Family Therapy Association.Paper originally prepared for presentation as a plenary address for the 2nd World Congress of Family Therapy, Krakow, Poland, September 1990. |
