Este artigo analisa a evolução da taxa de dívórcios na República Popular da China. Depois da onda de divórcios no pós-revolução comunista (inícios dos anos 1950) e da era da Revolução Cultural (final dos anos 1960), a China vive uma nova explosão de separações pela via legal. Zhong Wu escreve no The Standard que
"While the sharp increase in divorce appears at odds with traditional Chinese values concerning marriage and family, it should be hailed as progress. To choose your mate - or get rid of one - is a basic human right. From the point of view of human rights and liberty, divorce is progress, giving unhappily married couples the freedom to decide on their own whether they should continue to live together.
The latest statistics indicate that mainlanders are increasingly exercising their rights and, one hopes, living happier lives in the process."
