| dc.description.notes | Discusses recent empirical findings in relation to the financial aspects of divorce transition in Australia, drawing primarily upon the Australian Divorce Transitions Project (ADTP), conducted by the Australian Institute of Family Studies and a range of subsidiary studies, that examined the manner in which property and financial resources are divided. The aims and methodology of the ADTP are set out and a background to the financial risks associated with divorce provided, before the core findings of the subsidiary studies are presented. The discussion focuses on three main issues – the nature of asset wealth and the ways in which it is divided; the differences in the economic circumstances of men and women six years post-separation; and the links between domestic violence, property settlement outcomes, post-divorce living standards and workforce participation of divorced men and women. It is suggested that although there is continued debate regarding the economic and social factors that influence a family’s passage through divorce and significant advances have been made in social policy, the ‘feminisation of poverty’ remains an important issue, as does the particular disadvantage experienced post-divorce and -separation by sole mothers, older women and survivors of spousal violence. | en |
