Remarriage as an Incomplete Institution.
Cherlin, Andrew
American Journal of Sociology, v84 n3 p634-50 Nov 1978, Nov78
Investigates why the divorce rate for remarriage is higher than the divorce rate for first marriages: because the institution of the family provides no standard solutions to problems encountered in remarriage. Recommends additional research on remarriage and on the institutionalization of married life. (Author/DB)
