In the mirror of divorce in Côte d'Ivoire

This work focuses on divorces in the Yopougon Court. It analyzes its socio-economic factors and notes its resurgence in the said court in recent years. The study consisted in collecting data through documentary research and interviews. The accidental sample made it possible to retain 439 divorce files. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 12 divorcees, including seven women and five men. The interviews revealed various regularities in the way divorce is manifested. These resonate with certain mutations in the parameters of the spouses, supported by new ways of conceiving one's spouse using masks in the service of divorce.
