Abstract

The marital life of women at the bottom of society was very worrying in the early Republic of China in Beijing, with high suicide phenomenon. The main causes are poverty, couple conflict, contradiction between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, as well as the persecution of traditional concepts such as “men are superior to women”, and “preserve chastity after the death of the husband”. Under the overall layout of building a modern country, Beijing local government tries to bring marriage crisis and women’s suicide into the scope of social intervention on police and government agencies, but there is always a huge tension between policy plan and concrete practice.
