Regional context and realization of fertility intentions: Are capitals different? The examples of Austria and Hungary

Riederer, B. & Buber-Ennser, I. (2018). Demográfia, 61(5) 10.21543/dee.2018.2

Despite regional variation in fertility, within-country differences have hardly been addressed in the realm of realizing fertility intentions. We address this shortcoming by analyzing the realization of short-term fertility intentions in Austria and Hungary, comparing data from the capitals (Vienna and Budapest) to the remaining regions. Results demonstrate that realization is lower in Hungary than in Austria and lower in …

Quel est l’effet des enfants sur la stabilité des mariages et des cohabitations ? Comparaison européenne:

Žilinčíková, Z. & Richou, C. (2018). Population, Vol. 72(4), 677-699 10.3917/popu.1704.0677

Naître de parents non mariés n’a pas la même signification ni les mêmes conséquences selon le pays de naissance. Alors qu’il s’agit d’une situation très courante dans certains pays d’Europe, comme en France où c’est le cas de presque 60 % des enfants nés en 2016, elle est encore rare dans d’autres pays où le mariage reste la forme d’union …

Pathways, background and outcomes of the transition to adulthood in the early 2000s in Hungary

Murinkó, L. (2018). Demográfia, 61(5) 10.21543/dee.2018.3

In the present paper, we analyze the process of the transition to adulthood in contemporary Hungary. We identify typical pathways, describe them in terms of role transitions, as well as regarding their socio-economic and family background and various outcomes. In order to do so, we regard the transition to adulthood as a multi-dimensional and dynamic process. Using longitudinal data from …

Partnership Choice and Childbearing in Norway and Spain

Rutigliano, R. & Esping-Andersen, G. (2018). European Journal of Population, 34(3), 367-386 10.1007/s10680-017-9432-6

Abstract Cohabitation has, in a number of countries, become a genuine alternative to marriage. Where this occurs, will we see a convergence in fertility behavior between the two partnership options? We address this question by comparing two societies, Norway and Spain, that contrast sharply not only in the evolution of cohabitation, but also in overall birth rates and public support …

Parents’ Preferences for Sex of Children in Sweden: Attitudes and Outcomes

Miranda, V., Dahlberg, J., & Andersson, G. (2018). Population Research and Policy Review, 37(3), 443-459 10.1007/s11113-018-9462-8

It has been argued that preferences for the sex of children would be small or non-existing in relatively gender equal societies. However, previous studies have suggested that a stronger preference for having daughter exists in Scandinavian countries, which are frequently noted for being among the most gender equal societies in the world. Combining new register data on birth rates by …

Non-kin ties as a source of support amongst older adults ‘left behind’ in Poland: a quantitative study on the role of geographic distance

Conkova, N. & King, R. (2018). Ageing and Society, 39(06), 1255-1280 10.1017/s0144686x17001507

ABSTRACT In the transition to democracy and a market economy, the Central and Eastern European countries experienced rapid and fundamental changes. Large-scale emigration flows and pronounced reductions in previously universal welfare systems increased the phenomenon of ‘left behind’ older adults. We examine this phenomenon in the case of Poland, a rather family-oriented society which in recent years sent most emigrants …

Buber-Ennser, I., Goujon, A., Kohlenberger, J., & Rengs, B. (2018). Religions, 9(5), 154 10.3390/rel9050154

Violent conflicts and social unrest in the Middle East, in Central Asia, and in Africa have led to growing numbers of persons seeking refuge in Europe since 2011. The phenomenon culminated in 2015. In that year, with 88,300 new asylum applications, Austria was the 4th largest receiver of asylum seekers in the EU, thereby increasing visibly religious diversity in the …

Mutual Influences Between Motherhood and Educational Attainment in Selected Eastern European Countries

Mureşan, C. (2018). Studia Universitatis Babes-Bolyai Sociologia, 63(1), 75-97 10.2478/subbs-2018-0005

Abstract Women are spending an ever longer part of their lives enrolled in education programs. A crucial question in this context is how motherhood can be reconciled and correlated with continued investment in human capital. A related question concerns the role the socioeconomic context plays in the education/family life balance. In the present study we account for the finding that …

Analyses relying on two international surveys from over 100,000 men and women across 29 countries explore the relationship between maternal employment and adult daughters’ and sons’ employment and domestic outcomes. In the employment sphere, adult daughters, but not sons, of employed mothers are more likely to be employed and, if employed, are more likely to hold supervisory responsibility, work more …

Trimarchi, A. & Bavel, J. (2018). Demographic Research, 39, 381-414 10.4054/DemRes.2018.39.13

BACKGROUND While women’s participation in higher education has caught up with and surpassed that of men, large gender differences persist in the choice of field of study. To date, we know little about the mechanisms that explain the link between fertility and study disciplines for both men and women. OBJECTIVE To study gender differences in the effect on fertility of …

Mönkediek, B. & Bras, H. (2018). European Journal of Population, 34(1), 33-57 10.1007/s10680-017-9418-4

Abstract Family systems, as normative frameworks in which family processes unfold, are believed to exert a major influence on fertility. While a number of studies have addressed family system effects on family size and the timing of births, the question of how family systems influence fertility intentions has remained largely unexplored. Because fertility intentions are often not realized, studying the …

The fertility pattern in the Czech Republic, as in other central and eastern European countries, has undergone dynamic transformation over the last quarter of a century. This study aims to contribute to the debate on the influence of structural and situational variables on fertility in low-fertility countries and extends the debate by introducing the viewpoint of male reproduction. The aim …

A new strand of studies has called into question standard microeconomic predictions of a positive association between women’s economic independence and marital union dissolution. We investigate whether and how the gender division of labor channels the impact of women’s employment on marital union disruption, utilizing data on heterosexual couples from the 2003 and 2007 waves of the Italian nationally representative …
