Abstract
Today, family and its basic values are facing various challenges, many of which refer to more fundamental issues that are themselves part of broader civilizational structures. The similarity of family values throughout the world shows that they are natural, and the existence of similar challenges on a global scale proves that they are civilizational. The main topic of this article is to explain hyper-individualism as a basic indicator for anti-family developments and to express its effects in opposition to its values, which are: self-centeredness; inversion of value; corporeality of marital relationship, materialism and welfare, detachment from religion; replacement of divine soul with sexual ego. This article is written based on the library method and is categorized in the category of theoretical research..
