Demographic Transition and the Industrial Revolution in England
We present a model of 19th Century population change in England & Wales. The model highlights contrasting demographic and economic processes in rural and urban sectors as core explanations for rural to urban migration, stemming from labor surpluses in the former and labor shortages in the latter. This massive migration transformed the geographic distribution of the population, in tandem with the economic transformation caused by the Industrial Re…
Intergenerational Relationships
Reflections On Societal Change, Adjustments, and Responses
Building on Davis (1963) and subsequent work, we propose a conceptual framework that provides a guide for the organization of empirical demographic research. Our approach is based on the notion that changes in nuptiality, fertility, and migration are not objectives in and of themselves, but means for reducing welfare gaps—defined as the gaps between actual welfare and that which could be attained with altered demographic and/or other behavior. We…

Educational stratification among Arabs and Jews in Israel
Arabs in Israel are a heterogeneous but largely underprivileged minority with a history of disadvantage in several domains, including education and employment. In this paper, we document changes in their attainment of various educational levels across cohorts born from the mid-1920s to the 1970s. We make comparisons among different Arab religious groups, between men and women, and between Arabs and the majority Jewish populations in Israel. We fi…
Immigration, social change and assimilation
We consider changes in ethnic gaps among Jewish Israelis in a variety of measures of educational attainment over three generations, forty years of birth cohorts, and in three broad ethnic groups. We document the educational attainments of huge waves of immigrants and their descendants, beginning with those born before the foundation of the State, and ending with those whose members are now entering higher education. In addition, we examine ethnic…
Role perception among social workers living in politically uncertain areas
Social workers and residents in areas of political uncertainty are exposed to special demands which derive from three sources, residence in the area, exposure to the anxieties and conflicts of neighbors as clients, and being representatives of the establishment. The results of a survey in 1995 of social workers in Judea/Samaria and the Golan Heights show a positive correlation between feelings of surfeit of political issues and difficulty of copi…
The Demographic Transition Then and Now
Fifty years have passed since the post–World War II development of demography as an academic field. During this time, one of the central focuses of research has been the study of demographic and fertility transitions. The authors reviewa selection of research developments and analytic issues that have appeared in the literature. After presenting, in roughly chronological order, the general development of this research work, they raise questions c…
Pretransition Marital Fertility Variation over Time
An important line of research concerning historical fertility patterns in currently developed countries of Europe has concluded that, prior to the fertility transition, marital fertility was essentially constant over time, and deliberate fertility control was virtually unknown. It has been argued that variations over time in overall fertility were largely the consequence of variations in nuptiality. Other researchers have challenged these views a…
The Modern Shift to Below-Replacement Fertility
Fertility has declined to below replacement levels in many of the modern industrialized countries during the last three decades. This decline has been explained by various modern socio-economic characteristics, such as the change in women's status, their increased participation in non-familial activities, modern consumption patterns, and increasing costs of raising ‘quality’ children. The Jewish population of Israel is a modern society with such …
The British Depression and Nuptiality
Variation in nuptiality levels in England and Wales between the 1870s-1890s are explained by socioeconomic variables: the unemployment rate % indoor pauperism marriage market and migration rates (R2=.64). 50% of the variance in marriage rates is explained by unemployment 12% by indoor pauperism and a much less significant amount for the marriage market. Analysis was based on cross sectional data by 578 districts on sex and marital status for sele…
Occupational Structure, Wages, and Migration in Late Nineteenth-Century England and Wales
The Transition from High to Low Marital Fertility
Demographic responses and socioeconomic structure
This paper explores some theoretical and empirical aspects related to the theory of change and multiple response. The empirical analysis focuses on 600 relatively small and homogeneous geographical units of England and Wales for the period 1851–1910. These units are classified into six identifiable socioeconomic types and the analysis is made for each of them. Two interrelated issues are studied. First, a set of explanatory variables, connected e…

The Population of Israel
Modernization patterns and fertility change
The relation between socio-economic development and fertility is analysed for the Arab populations of Israel and the territories administered by Israel (i.e. the West Bank and the Gaza Strip). Retrospective survey statistics are used to reconstruct the fertility patterns of currently married Arab women, along with a variety of census information. Fertility responses to socio-economic changes are traced out in detail for the period of the British …
Immigration, social change and cohort fertility in Israel
The patterns of fertility change and variation in Israel provide a unique opportunity to analyse the impact of immigration on fertility. Survey data were collected on 14,000 Jewish women to study cohort fertility trends of specific immigrant sub-populations in Israel and their socio-economic backgrounds. The information presented shows a major convergence of fertility among the heterogeneous immigrant — ethnic sub-populations. The convergence of …
Mass immigration and population dynamics in israel
Israel, in her 25 years of existence, received an unprecedented volume of immigration, which was the major source of her high population growth. This immigration was heavily concentrated in the first five years, 1948–1952; mass immigration of 711,000 supplemented an initial population of 630,000. Subsequently, since 1952, a very peculiar age-sex structure has developed: namely, instead of a pyramid, a wide rectangle for the younger age groups “to…
London's Urban Transition 1851-19511
Peace and the Demographic Future of Israel
This paper focuses on the demographic implications of alternative peace settlements between Israel and her Arab neighbors. Two sets of demographic issues are discussed: (1) variations in the types of territorial and implied population adjustments that may result from a peace settlement and (2) variations in demographic dynamics of Jewish and Arab populations over the next 30 years. Models based on a range of territorial and population alternative…
Demographic Patterns and Socioeconomic Characteristics of the Coal-Mining Population in England and Wales in the Nineteenth Century
Family Planning in Israel
The concern over the population growth among the Jewish population in Israel is not new. Attempts to achieve fast population growth, mainly for political ends, have been made for several decades. This may explain why Israel's otherwise extensive public health services exclude family planning. Consequently, there is much public ignorance concerning family planning issues, and, in turn, a low usage of efficient contraceptives among many families wi…

Demographic Responses and Population Change
Most Western societies have gone through a process of population change during the past 100-150 years. One important aspect is the socalled demographic transition: the shift from high to low birth and death rates, and accelerated growth resulting from the lag between falling mortality and falling fertility, in national populations. Equally important has been the “rural-to-urban” transition, which involved the migration of millions of people from …

The spread of urbanization in England and Wales, 1851-1951
Each county in England and Wales has been classified as rural or urban for each of the decennial census years 1851-1951. One index has been used as the basis for these classifications, the percentage of adult males occupied in agriculture. Thus, for each census year a value, in term of this index, was fixed as the criterion to determine whether a county was rural or urban in that year. This criterion of classification varies, over time. This is t…
