Life‐Course Transitions and the Age Profile of Internal Migration
Population and Development Review - Tập 40 Số 2 - Trang 213-239 - 2014
Aude Bernard, Martin Bell, Elin Charles‐Edwards
Despite underlying regularities in the age profile of migration, there is mounting evidence of cross‐national variations in the ages at which migration occurs. Explanations for these differences have variously been sought by reference to cultural, social, and economic factors, and through analysis of reasons for moving. There is also a growing body of work linking migration events to particular tr... hiện toàn bộ
China's Floating Population: New Evidence from the 2000 Census
Population and Development Review - Tập 30 Số 3 - Trang 467-488 - 2004
Zai Liang, Zhongdong Ma
This article uses tabulations from the 2000 Population Census of China along with a micro‐level data sample from the census to provide a picture of China's floating population: migrants without local household registration (hukou), a status resulting in significant social and economic disadvantages. By 2000, the size of China's floating population had grown to nearly 79 million, if that category i... hiện toàn bộ

Estimates from the two surveys indicate that total fertility remained stable from ... hiện toàn bộ
Poverty, Inequality, and Fertility: The Contribution of Demographic Change to Global Poverty Reduction
Population and Development Review - Tập 46 Số 1 - Trang 65-99 - 2020
Frank‐Borge Wietzke
AbstractGlobal poverty has fallen dramatically over the past decades. In many developing countries, this transformation was accompanied by rapid improvements in demographic outcomes, such as falling child mortality and fertility. Yet, recent theorizing and empirical research into the causes of global poverty reduction has mostly omitted demographic factors. This paper aims to fill this gap by test... hiện toàn bộ

A Turning Point in Gender Bias in Mortality? An Update on the Number of Missing Women
Population and Development Review - Tập 28 Số 2 - Trang 285-312 - 2002
Stephan Klasen, Claudia Wink
Amartya Sen started a debate about gender bias in mortality by estimating the number of “missing women,” which refers to the number of females of any age who have presumably died as a result of discriminatory treatment. Depending on the assumptions made, the combined estimates for countries exhibiting the presence of such gender bias varied between 60 and 107 million. As new population data have b... hiện toàn bộ

Fertility has declined significantly in many parts of India since the early 1980s. This article examines the determinants of fertility levels and fertility decline, using data on Indian districts for 1981 and 1991. The authors find that women's education and child mortality are the most important factors explaining fertility differences across the country and over time. Low levels of son preferenc... hiện toàn bộ
A Cognitive–Social Model of Fertility Intentions
Population and Development Review - Tập 39 Số 3 - Trang 459-485 - 2013
Christine A. Bachrach, S. Philip Morgan
We examine the use and value of fertility intentions against the backdrop of theory and research in the cognitive and social sciences. First, we draw on recent brain and cognition research to contextualize fertility intentions within a broader set of conscious and unconscious mechanisms that contribute to mental function. Next, we integrate this research with social theory. Our conceptualizations ... hiện toàn bộ
