Exploring the impacts of Covid‐19 on births in Italy, 2020−2022
During the different phases of the COVID‐19 pandemic, conception trends in developed countries varied in profoundly different ways. Scholars have proposed a variety of explanations for these differences, often related to the particular socioeconomic context and social groups of a given nation, highlighting the need for country‐specific, in‐depth analyses. Italy was one of the countries where the number of conceptions resulting in a birth signific…
Demographic Systems of Medieval Italy (6th-15th century AD)
In this article, we bring together a variety of studies, both old and new, to examine continuity and change in population dynamics in Italy during the medieval millennium (476-1492 AD). Though the available data are often sporadic and should be interpreted with great caution, it is possible to clarify certain dynamics, which can be useful for guiding future research. First, population fluctuations were not impacted by migration into or out of Ita…
Data and Trends in Assisted Suicide and Euthanasia, and Some Related Demographic Issues
Although considerable gains in survival have been observed in developed countries, particularly in the last stretch of life, part of these additional years of life are lived in bad health. In this context, a number of actions/inactions that limit or may limit life span are becoming increasingly common. Demography and quantitative sociology are well-positioned to make a significant contribution to the measurement of the consistency of different en…

An unexpected demographic regime
Démographie, paysannerie et famille dans la Provence du haut Moyen Âge, 813-814
Établi en 813-814, l'inventaire des paysans qui travaillaient pour l'abbaye Saint-Victor de Marseille donne des informations sur la dynamique démographique en Provence (France méridionale) durant le haut Moyen Âge. La structure de la population par âge est reconstruite et permet de constater qu'elle est similaire à ce que reflètent d'autres registres médiévaux européens. Avec des résultats très proches des données sur les cimetières provençaux du…
Immigration Italian Style, 1977-2018
Today, in Spain, Portugal, Italy, Malta and Greece, the incidence of the foreign population is entirely comparable to that of the more traditional European reception countries. Only forty years ago, however, the foreign population in these five southern European countries was decidedly modest. The migration balance with foreign countries has become positive since the 1970s, inverting a secular trend. However, after the migration boom at the begin…
First signs of transition
The aim of this article is to investigate the parallel decline of early baptism and early mortality at the beginning of the demographic transition in a European high-neonatal mortality context
The Delayed Fertility Transition in North-East Italy
Spread of Cohabitation and Proximity between Kin in Contemporary Italy
In countries of Mediterranean Europe, characterized by strong family ties, close residential proximity between kin facilitates frequent exchanges of free mutual aid. This article focuses on the challenges to proximity posed by the spread of cohabitation in Italy. We consider an extensive definition of kin networks, including siblings and, for women in a couple, the parents and siblings of the partner. We confirm that couples who cohabit or who ha…
Cohort Replacement and Homeostasis in World Population, 1950-2100
Using a simple empirical approach, we analyze world and regional-level cohort replacement as determined by the key components of population dynamics, i.e. fertility, survival, and migration, for 1950-2010, using UN data. We define two kinds of homeostatic relationships among these components: fertility responses to mortality change (type I) and migration responses to changes in net reproduction (type II), and show that both can be observed to som…
Just a Matter of Time? The Ways in Which the Children of Immigrants become Similar (or not) to Italians
In this paper, we study similarities between the children of immigrants and those of Italian parents using data from the Itagen2, a survey of a large sample of pupils, aged 11–13, enrolled in Italian junior high schools in 2006. We measure three different aspects—linguistic abilities, friendship with peers, and sense of belonging in Italy—and investigate the determinants of similarity using multivariate techniques. Our results suggest that the It…
A Comparison of Survey Techniques on Sensitive Sexual Behavior in Italy
This article compares two national surveys carried out through the most commonly used procedures in Italy: CATI (computer-assisted telephone interviews) and SAQ-FI (self-answered questionnaires following interviews). Both surveys ask two identical questions concerning sensitive sexual behavior: early age at first intercourse and same-sex attraction. The SAQ-FI survey had both unit non-response and item non-response rates much lower than the CATI …
Population and Family in Central and Northern Italy at the Dawn of the Modern Age
Despite the laborious process of gathering the data and some limitations due to selective incompleteness, catasti and estimi (fiscal cadastres) provide precious information on demographic differences within Italy during the Late Middle Ages and early Modern Age. The authors compare three areas: the countryside surrounding Lucca in 1411 (Tuscany, 5,792 individuals) and Varese in 1530 (Lombardy, 2,703), and the “quasi-city” of Legnago in 1430 (Vene…
An Analysis of Extremely High Nineteenth-Century Winter Neonatal Mortality in a Local Context of Northeastern Italy
Tacit Consent
This article employs novel documentation to examine ways in which the Church's moral rules on contraception were (or were not) communicated to parishioners in a predominantly Catholic context in a period of rapid fertility decline: the diocese of Padua, in the northeastern Italian region of Veneto, during the first half of the twentieth century. The account is based on documents that have until now been overlooked: the moral cases discussed durin…
A Portrait of Immigrant Children's Housing Experiences in Italy
In this paper, we describe the housing arrangements of immigrant children aged 11-14, comparing their situation to that of Italian children. Data come from the ITAGEN2, a statistically representative survey of students aged 11-14, living in 44 Italian provinces during the 2005-06 school year (10,537 Italians and 6,368 immigrants). Parents of Italian children are often able to combine three housing objectives: homeownership, spaciousness, and prox…
A note on
In a paper published in this journal, Renzo Derosas (2009) presents a study on the determinants of infant mortality in nineteenth-century Veneto in which he uses micro-data to analyse the relationship between maternal malnutrition and the risk of dying during the first weeks of life. Emphasizing that the case of Veneto, a large region in north-eastern Italy, is of particular interest, he says 'Scattered evidence from parish-register studies sugge…
Comparisons of infant mortality in the Austrian Empire Länder using the Tafeln (1851-54)

Population Dynamics in Italy in the Middle Ages
Studies of settlements in Italy indicate that during the Early Middle Ages (6th-9th centuries) the Italian population was stagnant, whereas a slow but persistent growth followed during the High Middle Ages (10th-13th). However, the components of the dynamics of the Italian population in the long period between the Justinian Plague (around 565 in Italy) and the Black Death (1348) are largely unknown. In this article, data from anthropometric analy…
The seasonality of conception
Individual data on menstrual cycles of noncontracepting women living in Western countries were used in order to verify whether the biological seasonality of conception persists after sexual behavior is controlled for. Episodes of intercourse were recorded daily, and the time of ovulation was detected by a marker. We find that the seasonality of conception changes with woman’s age and frequency of episodes of sexual intercourse. In particular, for…
Social mobility and fertility
Intra- and inter-generational social mobility have in the past played an important role in attempts to explain fertility behaviour, and continue to do so today. The opinions expressed by social scientists in the first part of the 20th century are renew
