Previous studies documented the existence of a 'cohabitation-marriage gap' in resource pooling among opposite-sex partners, with cohabiters being more likely to separate income and wealth than married individuals. Surprisingly, despite many non-marital cohabitations transform into marriages, we know little about income and wealth pooling of 'spousa...
Legal separation is a crucial step in the dissolving of marriages in Italy. Marriage and legal separation data come from administrative data sources and have been part of the civil registration and vital statistics system for a long time. These data make it possible to constantly monitor evolution of marital unions formation and dissolution over ti...
Despite the many differences that exist between Italy, Bulgaria, and Germany, the three countries are among those with the lowest fertility rates in Europe. However, they differ in the level of public support for families and the role of informal supportive networks in daily life. Italy and Bulgaria, on the one hand, share very low levels of public...
This contribution compares the characteristics of spouses in endogamous vs. exogamous marriages in Italy using marriage registers for 2017. We model the probability of observing an endogamous vs. exogamous marriage between a native and foreign spouse coming from different migrant origins. The marriage patterns that we find are consistent with a (mi...
In questo lavoro il benessere dei giovani viene misurato attraverso la costruzione di un indicatore di benessere multidimensionale analogo nel metodo di calcolo allo Youth Multi-dimensional Deprivation Indicator (Y-MDI) calcolato dall'Ocse, anche se differente per la selezione di dimensioni e indicatori rilevanti.
L’indicatore di benessere multidim...
Objective
This study investigates the characteristics of spouses in Italy who choose to pool their economic resources.
Background
If resource pooling is common among male‐breadwinner couples, expectations regarding resource pooling are mixed for female‐breadwinner couples or, more generally, for couples with wives who are economically advantaged w...
This paper investigates the pooling of resources among spouses using data collected in the Italian Marriage Register. The study of matrimonial property regime sheds light on whether resource pooling in the form of the shared ownership of property or assets accumulated during marriage is more likely to be chosen when there is a disparity between spo...
Fino a tutti gli anni Settanta, per la stragrande maggioranza delle donne i percorsi di formazione della famiglia si riducevano alla sequenza:
matrimonio - spesso in concomitanza con l’uscita di casa - e, successivamente, nascita del primo figlio. Oggi le cose sono decisamente più complesse. Il matrimonio non rappresenta più la scelta obbligata pe...
L’intensa e prolungata contrazione dell’economia nel nostro paese ha portato a un consistente calo dell’occupazione e a una crescita della disoccupazione giovanile. Quali effetti sulla popolazione italiana? I matrimoni sono sempre più rari e tardivi; le nascite stanno diminuendo, anche nella popolazione di origine straniera; i flussi di nuovi immig...
Obiettivo del presente lavoro è l'analisi della relazione tra età alla prima unione e transizione al primo figlio in un contesto di bassissima fecondità. A differenza di altri studi sulla fecondità, questo lavoro prende esplicitamente in considerazione le caratteristiche maschili (quali coorte e regione di nascita, istruzione, occupazione, età al m...
Although still modest, non response rates in multipurpose household surveys have recently increased, especially in some metropolitan areas. Previous analyses have shown that refusal risk depends on the interviewers' characteristics. The aim of this paper is to explain the difference in refusal risk among metropolitan areas by analysing the strategi...
Unlike the countries of north-western Europe, marriage in Italy has maintained a crucial role in the process of family formation. This raise doubts about the possibility that the theory of "second demographic transition" could adequately account for the behaviour of the European population living south of the Alps. The aim of this paper is twofold:...
Significant changes in the propensity to marry, together with baby booms, busts and migrations shape the marriage market. Big changes in the level of fertility may affect, some decades later, the opportunities of marriage of eligible individuals, creating a marriage squeeze. Italy provides an interesting case study because since World War II, it ha...
