Factors Associated with Marriage and Family Formation Processes in Southern Ethiopia
Using data from the 1997 Community and Family Survey conducted in Southern Ethiopia, we analyzed the factors associated with marriage arrangements and family formation patterns and tried to investigate their relationship with some cultural and socioeconomic attributes. Specifically, determinants of, and differentials in, the pattern of entry into marriage, stability of first marriages, mate selection criteria for daughters, and factors associated…
Demographic responses to environmental stress in the drought‐ and famine‐prone areas of northern Ethiopia
Research on the demographic consequences of environmental stress (drought and famine, in particular) has not been conclusive. Using primary survey data on the demographic consequences of drought and famine in the drought‐prone areas of northern Ethiopia, this study argues that growing environmental stress and persisting food insecurity have stimulated changes in the demographic behaviours and attitudes of farming communities, including: an increa…
Rural Out-migration in the Drought Prone Areas of Ethiopia
This article presents a multilevel analysis of rural out-migration in Ethiopia over the 1984–1994 period. Using a recent household survey carried out in the drought prone rural areas of Ethiopia, discrete-time hazard models are used to examine the impact of individual, household and community factors on migration. Incorporating a life-course and the “new economics of migration” perspectives, our findings suggest that rural out-migration in these …
A Guide to Global Population Projections
Interdisciplinary studies that draw on long-term, global population projections often make limited use of projection results, due at least in part to the historically opaque nature of the projection process. We present a guide to such projections aimed
Household Vulnerability to Food Crisis and Mortality in the Drought-Prone Areas of Northern Ethiopia
This study examines the association between a household's degree of vulnerability to food crisis and the incidence of deaths using primary survey data carried out to look at the demographic consequences of drought and famine in the drought-prone areas of northern Ethiopia. Retrospective data on the occurrences of deaths within a household were collected for the period 1984 to 1994. Consistent with previous studies, the findings confirm that morta…
