Abstract
The theory recognizes the role of age in marriage in determining the level of development and fertility in the society. Along with this also are the relevance of culture and environment. The theory therefore, holds that change in economical, social status and residential patterns, that is from urban to rural for instance, will bring change in fertility and choice of marriage, which can be achieved through manipulations in early marriage (under age in marriage). It is also suggested that people from different sociocultural backgrounds will differ in their disposition towards social change and attitudes to early marriage. For instance, some cultures or groups might view early marriage/teenage marriage union as bad while others recommend it, and vice versa. 35 The present study aims at understanding the developmental implications of early marriage among different generations of people and the society at large.
