The Marriage Buyout: The Troubled Trajectory of U.S. Alimony Law - Families, Law, and Society
Cynthia Lee Starnes
From divorce court to popular culture, alimony is a dirty word. In short, critics of alimony claim it has no place in contemporary visions of marriage as a partnership of equals. The author argues that alimony is often the only practical tool for ensuring that divorce does not treat today's primary caregivers as if they were suckers.
