The Impact of Government Policies on Youth Political Participation in Jordan
-
الملخص
Social and economic issues have a direct effect on family stability because they exacerbate social and economic issues that can cause family bonds to break down and divorce and poverty rates to rise. In order to improve family stability and sustainability, policy and community actions must be supported. The purpose of this study is to look into Jordanian society's social and economic issues and how they affect family stability. A descriptive methodology served as the foundation for the investigation. The findings demonstrated that social issues associated with fast cultural and societal change, as well as economic issues including high rates of poverty and job insecurity, significantly contribute to family instability. In order to assist Jordanian families and improve their stability through awareness campaigns, financial assistance, and the construction of social infrastructure, the study also showed how urgently social and economic policies need to be reviewed. According to the findings, relevant stakeholders must work together to address these issues and help families weather trying times, which will help maintain social stability overall.
