Marriage built civilization. Will its collapse lead to our downfall? In Marriage and Civilization, Tucker takes readers on a journey through the history of the human race to demonstrate how a pattern of life-long, monogamous pairings has enabled humans to build modern civilization. Drawing extensively on biological, anthropological, and historical evidence, Tucker makes the case that marriage is not only a desirable institution for societies, it’s actually the bedrock of civilization. Tucker also examines America (and the world)’s current marriage crisis, and the factors that have led to the decline of marriage, the dramatic rise of divorce, and the epidemic of single parenthood. He draws bold predictions about what could happen to American society of marriage collapses entirely, and he sketches out the threat from polygamous groups such as fundamental Muslim sects. Polygamy, Tucker argues, not only generates discontent and disorder within a society, but promotes violence against others. Monogamous marriage is vital not only to our domestic well-being, but our survival in the face of violent enemies.

In Family and Civilization, the distinguished Harvard sociologist Carle Zimmerman demonstrates the close and causal connections between the rise and fall of different types of families and the rise and fall of civilizations, particularly ancient Greece and Rome, medieval and modern Europe, and the United States. Zimmerman traces the evolution of family structure from tribes and clans to extended and large nuclear families to the smaller, often broken families of today. And he shows the consequences of each structure for bearing and rearing of children, for religion, law, and everyday life, and for the fate of civilization itself. Originally published in 1947, this compelling analysis predicted many of today's controversies and trends concerning youth violence and depression, abortion, and homosexuality, the demographic collapse of the West, and the displacement of peoples. This new edition has been edited and abridged by James Kurth of Swarthmore College. It includes essays on the text by Kurth and Bryce Christensen and an introduction by Allan C. Carlson.

We have long assumed that even the most primitive societies had certain minimal cultural absolutes: ceremonies for marriage, birth, death, and coming of age; leadership by strong, dominant, alpha males or sage elders; competitive games and play; religious ritual to intercede with the supernatural. Our assumptions have been completely wrong... The seed of Civilization came from within human beings born after the advent of agriculture. It germinated and grew within the human psyche. It fostered a change in human behavior so disruptive that the species was in danger of extinction. Civilization became the solution and salvation.

Romanticism and Civilization examines romantic alternatives to modern life in Rousseau’s foundational novel Julie. It argues that Julie is a response to the ills of modern civilization, and that Rousseau saw that the Enlightenment’s combination of science and of democracy degraded human life by making it bourgeois. The bourgeois is man uprooted by science and attached to nothing but himself. He lives a commercial life and his materialism and calculations penetrate all aspects of his existence. He is neither citizen, nor family man, nor lover in any serious sense: his life is meaningless. Rousseau’s romanticism in Julie is an attempt to find connectedness through the sentiments of private life and wholeness through love, marriage, and family.

We have long assumed that even the most primitive societies had certain minimal cultural absolutes: ceremonies for marriage, birth, death, and coming of age; leadership by strong, dominant, alpha males or sage elders; competitive games and play; religious ritual to intercede with the supernatural. Our assumptions have been completely wrong. We have ignored first-hand evidence and failed to connect that evidence to obvious correlation with our Stone Age ancestors. Civilization is not the result of hundreds of thousands of years of continuous human progress. The genesis of human Civilization had a seed, a direct and definable cause. People had lived a stable, unchanging lifestyle for 150,000 years before Civilization began. Then something changed. The question to be answered is, "If human beings were nonviolent for 150,000 years how and why did they become murderous, violent, and abusive?" Because that was not a small insignificant change. It was a radical, complete reversal of human behaviors and social order. The Seed of Civilization came from within human beings born after the advent of agriculture. It germinated and grew within the human psyche. It fostered a change in human behavior so disruptive that the species was in danger of extinction. Civilization became the solution and salvation.
