Exploring China's System of Restricting Divorce Freedom Based on the Civil Code

—Nowadays, the divorce demography remains high, and it is increasing year by year in China. The rise of the divorce demography not only affects the stability of the family to a large extent, but also threatens the economic and social development. In response to this problem, China has issued many legal documents to restrict the freedom of divorce, the most representative of which is the Civil Code, which stipulates a calm period for divorce, which has aroused a lot of attention and discussion. The regulation on the calm period of divorce effectively prevents the occurrence of impulsive divorce, but there are still many problems with this regulation. And to some extent, it interferes with the freedom of marriage. In response to the differences and existing problems in the current system, analyze the limitations on the freedom of divorce for military spouses and the limitations on divorce freedom procedures, and propose improvement suggestions based on domestic and foreign legislative experience. In the face of the calm period system that has caused widespread controversy, it needs to be further applied at different levels. Only in this way can we better solve the problem of the high divorce demography and promote the harmonious development of society
