Sobotka, T. (2010). In J. Tremmel (Ed.), A Young Generation Under Pressure? (pp. 129-154) Berlin, Heidelberg: Springer Berlin Heidelberg 10.1007/978-3-642-03483-1_7

In the last four decades, women and men in industrialised countries have been delaying parenthood towards ever later ages. This persistent trend, termed “postponement transition” by Kohler et al. (2002), has become characteristic for a wide range of countries with very diverse cultural, social and economic conditions. The rise of late parenthood has been enabled by the spread of modern …

The gerontological interest is whether there are variations in wellbeing …

Religious Socialisation and Fertility: Transition to Third Birth in The Netherlands

Berghammer, C. (2009). European Journal of Population / Revue européenne de Démographie, 25(3), 297-324 10.1007/s10680-009-9185-y

Abstract Although previous studies have demonstrated that religious people in Europe have larger families, the role played by religious socialisation in the context of contemporary fertility behaviour has not yet been analysed in detail. This contribution specifically looks at the interrelation between religious socialisation and current religiosity and their impact on the transition to the third child for Dutch women. …

Religiosität türkischer Migranten im Generationenverlauf: Ein Befund und einige Erklärungsversuche / Religiosity of First and Second Generation Turkish Migrants: A Phenomenon and Some Attempts at a Theoretical Explanation

Diehl, C. & Koenig, M. (2009). Zeitschrift für Soziologie, 38(4), 300-319 10.1515/zfsoz-2009-0403

Zusammenfassung Die Religiosität türkischer Einwanderer zeichnet sich durch eine erstaunlich hohe intergenerationale Stabilität aus. Dieser Beitrag diskutiert existierende theoretische Erklärungsansätze für Religiosität im Generationenverlauf und überprüft sie anhand empirischer Daten der in Deutschland durchgeführten Generations- and Gender Surveys (GGS). Dabei wird gezeigt, dass die klassische Assimilationstheorie und Konzepte der symbolischen oder kompensatorischen Religiosität ebenso wenig eine befriedigende Erklärung dieses Phänomens …

Religiosity and gender equality: comparing natives and Muslim migrants in Germany

Diehl, C., Koenig, M., & Ruckdeschel, K. (2009). Ethnic and Racial Studies, 32, 278-301 10.1080/01419870802298454

In European public debates, Islam is often described as an impediment to gender equality. By using data from surveys conducted in Germany, we analyze the role of high levels of individual religiosity in explaining Turks’ and Germans’ approval of gender equality and the way Turkish and German couples share household tasks. Results suggest that for both groups, individuals with strong …

Ruckdeschel, K. (2009). Zeitschrift für Bevölkerungswissenschaft, 34(1-2), 105–134 10.1007/s12523-010-0035-0

There are marked differences between France and Germany in terms of the fertility level which are traced back to different family policy frameworks and to differeenncceess in the normative expectations as to the role of woman and mother.

Neither single, nor in a couple. A study of living apart together in France

Regnier-Loilier, A., Beaujouan, É., & Villeneuve-Gokalp, C. (2009). Demographic Research, 21, 75-108 10.4054/DemRes.2009.21.4

Among living arrangements, living apart together relationships arouse curiosity on the part of sociologists, demographers and even the media. From a scientific point of view, how have noncohabiting relationships evolved in recent decades? How can we recognise these relationships, and who are the populations concerned? The present study provides an overall view into noncohabiting relationships in France, shedding light on …

The demographic and social processes of the past 150 years have radically changed the number of parents that children grow up with. This article uses two unique data sets to illustrate long-term changes in the living arrangements of children born between 1850 and 1985 in the Netherlands. Changes are described in terms of whether fathers, mothers, and stepparents lived with …

Intergenerational Relationships

Nauck, B., Steinbach, T., & Steinbach, A. (2009). SSRN Electronic Journal 10.2139/ssrn.1462084

Intergenerational relationships within family and kinship have become a salient issue in scientific research. Major reasons were intense demographic changes in the 20th century, such as the increased life expectancy in combination with decreased fertility, and its implications for major institutions of the social welfare state. This has resulted in the realization of several larger studies, which may serve for …

We address the question to what extent characteristics of the family of origin influence the timing of leaving the parental home and to what extent these effects differ between men and women. We use data from the Netherlands Kinship Panel Study to examine the effects of parental resources, atmosphere in the family of origin and family structure on leaving home …
