Features: This book primarily employs the following research methods. First, it adopts the materialist dialectics of Marxism. Marxism holds that marriage and family have both natural and social attributes, but their essential attribute is social. The emergence, formation, and development of marriage and family relationships ultimately depend on the development and changes of social material production relations. Second, it employs the comparative method. Since the support system after divorce was established in Western countries in modern times and still exists today, this book consists of nine chapters. Chapter 1 explores the relationship between post-divorce support and related legal systems; Chapter 2 examines the post-divorce support system in the United Kingdom; Chapter 3 explores the post-divorce support system in the United States; Chapter 4 discusses the post-divorce support system in Germany; Chapter 5 covers the post-divorce support systems in Japan and other countries; Chapter 6 investigates the social background of the evolution of post-divorce support; Chapter 7 examines the basis for claiming post-divorce support; Chapter 8 explores the legislative models for post-divorce support in modern countries; and Chapter 9 discusses the relevant provisions of China's current Marriage Law and judicial interpretations, proposing suggestions for improvement.
