Geneva. An Urban Sociodemographic Database
The Geneva databases are a data resource covering the period 1800–1880 for the city of Geneva, and occasionally the canton of Geneva. The research team adopted an alphabetical sampling approach, collecting data on individuals whose surname begins with the letter B. The individuals and households belonging to this sample in six population censuses between 1816 and 1843 were digitised and linked. A second database collected marriage and divorce rec…
Changing gender relations, declining fertility? An analysis of childbearing trajectories in 19th-century Netherlands
A long-standing and still unresolved debate has developed on whether the historical fertility transition was caused by â spacingâ (increasing the time between births) or by stopping (terminating childbearing at younger ages). Moreover, there is little conse
Changes in the Order of Family Life Events in 20th-Century Europe
This article analyzes the evolution of the sequencing of family life events in Europe during the second half of the 20th century using individual data from the European Social Survey and from the Generation and Gender Program. Considering the four events ‘leaving the parental home‘, ‘first cohabiting union‘, ‘first marriage‘, and ‘first parenthood‘, we hypothesize a transition from a traditional standard event order characterized by a high degree…
Access to marriage and reproduction among migrants in Antwerp and Stockholm. A longitudinal approach to processes of social inclusion and exclusion, 1846–1926
A longitudinal approach is used to describe and explain processes of social inclusion and exclusion among different groups of migrants in Antwerp and Stockholm (1846–1926), in terms of access to marriage and reproduction. In this way we want to get a better idea about the factors which facilitated or hampered the social inclusion of migrants upon arrival in two different Western European port cities. The results of the discrete time event history…
Demographic socialization and reproductive behavior in a transitional context
This paper analyzes the impact of individuals’ socialization in a given demographic context on their later reproductive behavior in 19th century Geneva. To assess this socialization effect on the fertility of first generation immigrants, I combine family reconstitution data with Coale’s aggregate indexes of marital fertility. I then run two-level Poisson regression models predicting age-specific fertility rates as a function of individual charact…
Long-term changes in social mortality differentials, Geneva, 1625–2004
Gender differences in social mortality differentials in Switzerland (1990-2005)
Using data from the 1990 and 2000 Swiss Federal Censuses linked to the death records of the years 1990-1995 and 2000-2005, this paper investigates gender differences in mortality differentials by level of educational achievement and by marital status
Unwed mothers in the city. Illegitimate fertility in 19th-century Geneva
The rise in illegitimate fertility in the late 18th and early 19th centuries has often been related to increasing economic and social vulnerability in the urban industrializing world. Many studies using macro-level data or analyzing individual characteristics of unwed mothers have found support for the vulnerability hypothesis. In this article, we investigate illegitimate childbearing in early 19th century Geneva in a longitudinal perspective. Re…
Déstandardisation, différenciation régionale et changements générationnels. Départ du foyer parental et modes de vie en Suisse au XXe siècle
We Have No Proletariat”
The aim of this study is to examine, by analysing marital origin-related homogamy and mobility, the fluidity of a system of social stratification marked by a heterogeneous working class and likely to lead to increasing social-group solidarity during the phase of a more active labour movement in the early twentieth century. Data from Winterthur, a Swiss town characterized by the expansion of an important engineering industry, reveal that occupatio…
L'endogamie matrimoniale dans les villes suisses, 1880-1930
L'etude analyse les caracteristiques de l'endogamie matrimoniale dans quatre villes suisses a la fin du xixe siecle et au debut du xxe siecle. En dissociant les contraintes structurelles – definies par les equilibres numeriques sur les marches matrimoniaux – des preferences individuelles – integrant les choix individuels et le respect des normes sociales et communautaires –, l'etude met en evidence notamment les specificites de l'endogamie par ra…
