United in Precarious Employment? Employment Precarity of Young Couples in the Netherlands, 1992-2007
The trend towards labour market flexibilization in advanced economies since the 1990s is associated with more employment insecurity. This study examines to what extent employment flexibility among young people in the Netherlands is related to employment flexibility or unemployment of the partner, between 1992 and 2007. In addition, we aim to explain this relationship. Multinomial logistic regression models are estimated using 16 cross-sections of…
Unintended Pregnancy and Induced Abortion in the Netherlands 1954-2002
In the Netherlands, abortion is legal, safe, easily available, and free of charge. Paradoxically, it is also extremely rare. Little quantitative research into the Netherlands’ abortion practice has been done. We analyse the fertile life-course of N = 3,793 Dutch women between 1954 and 2002. Using repeated event history analyses and sequential logistic regression, we test hypotheses on individual and societal effects on women’s likelihood of exper…
Alain Degenne and Yannick Lemel: Sociologie des comportements intentionnels
There is a dearth of textbooks leading up to the style of sociology exemplified by, among others, the European Sociological Review: a clever problem choice, systematic theorizing, and rigorous testing. American textbooks present sociology as a grab bag of topics, the theories in British treatises are so liquid that students may wish for a bar of soap, and German tomes are so concerned with the conditions for the possibility of sociology that soci…
Effects of Spouse's Resources on Occupational Attainment in the Netherlands
Economic theory predicts a negative association between spouses' levels of occupational attainment due to gains from specialization between housework and paid work. Sociology typically stresses facilitating effects of network resources on occupational attainment. Spouses are network members who may be able and willing to provide such resources. According to this argument, a positive association between spouses' levels of attainment is expected. C…
Do Rational Choice Approaches have Problems
By analysing examples, this paper makes three points about rational choice approaches within sociology. First, it is maintained that statistical techniques such as path diagrams and log-linear models are more suited to rational choice approaches than is apparent from rational choice criticisms of empirical social research. Secondly, it is held that the conditions under which the postulate that people act rationally is applied are more important t…
