Abstract

The social shift time carried out in Mongolia, the worldwide globalization and the cultural globalization have been bringing considerable changes to the structures and the styles of the families of Mongolia.
For the purpose to determine the current styles, the development, the changes and the future trends of the family relations and the factors affecting these, we fulfilled a basic survey named “The Current Situation of the Mongolian Family Relations” in 2010. The survey showed a tendency that the family relation matters will become more complicated in the country and problems ought to be solved will appear in the near 5 to 10 years. There will be many confronting problems such as family violation, divorce and post-divorce child matter.
There are common family types such as integrated, single, one-sided and having disabled members in Mongolia and several new styles have been appearing for example: transnational family, multi-cultural family, partnership family, contracted family1, homosexual family and group living family. Accordingly, there are needs and necessities to determine ways for completely researching the family affairs in a level of theory and practice to give answers, for including in the state policy and operations, for making practical consulting and for solving the problems and the matters.
Except providing the citizens with the education essential to keep families with normal relations, it is necessary to issue them a family education, which is fit to their life cycles, age specialties or otherwise which is based on their needs.
The survey showed that 72.3% replied a family consulting center is required, 72.3% replied a family education-provider institution is needed too and 45.4% answered a marriage ceremony hall is needed. It means such needs have already appeared and the demands are not being provided.
It is being observed that a trend about families is to gradually change from the conventional trend. An attitude to be based on dishonest and material interests, losing the precious values of families, to avoid the family responsibilities and to be selfishness preferring independence for sexual relations.
Building a state system, which is specially responsible for the family affairs, is significantly important to enhance the inter-sector regulations for solving the problems confronting the families.
