The change in demand for diamond engagement rings may therefore be explained by an
increase in need for such a bond because of the abolition of a cause of action for breach of
marriage promise. My guess, having apparently found a reason for the change in demand for
diamond engagement rings, is that many other mysterious demand changes could be accounted
for as well, given some though as to what the commodity might mean to consumers and some
exploration of the legal or other changes of the time during which the demand change occurred.
Interesting, indeed. Thanks for the read!
