title: [The social parameters of family reproduction in Saguenay (1842-1911)].
abstract: "The family files in the population network files of the Saguenay [Canada] are used here to isolate the social parameters of family reproduction in the region between 1842 and 1911, which corresponds to the period of population settlement.  Particular attention is paid to a) the kinship tie as a support of rural society, as studied through several forms of coresidence, b) the inequalities accompanying the transmission of land and the establishment of children, and c) literacy as an indicator of social differentiation.  It was observed that, despite disparities created between elder and younger sons and between boys and girls, family reproduction pursued an egalitarian course.  This orientation was to be compromised, however, by the tensions and constraints accompanying the saturation of arable lands around 1920 to 1930." (SUMMARY IN ENG AND SPA)
