23 p, 1.0 MB Trends in living arrangements around the world / Esteve, Albert (Centre d'Estudis Demogràfics) ; Reher, David-Sven (Universidad Complutense de Madrid) ; Centre d'Estudis Demogràfics
Most people coreside with other kin in private households while others live alone. The incidence of coresidence with kin and solo living varies noticeably across societies.

The relationship between levels of social and economic inequality and demographic changes remains poorly documented, particularly for fertility. Covering a period from 1986 to 2018, this paper documents a positive country-level association between in-come inequality and the dispersion of first birth schedules among women from 88countries of the Global South.

Using census and survey microdata from 69 countries worldwide, in this paper we document levels of intergenerational coresidence over the life course and examine changes in recent decades. We present evidence of a generalized pattern of increase in intergenerational coresidence during the initial decade of this century. [...]

The Human Development Index is the world's most famous indicator of the level of development of societies. A disadvantage of this index is however that only national values are available, whereas within many countries huge subnational variation in development exists. [...]

43 p, 565.2 KB Postindustrial fertility ideals, intentions, and gender inequality : a comparative qualitative analysis / Brinton, Mary C. ; Bueno, Xiana ; Oláh, Livia ; Hellum, Merete

This paper explores the conditions producing a gap between fertility ideals and intentions among young highly-educated adults in different postindustrial contexts. [...]
