Partnership and parenthood in contemporary Europe: a review of recent findings.
"In this article I will give a cross-sectional presentation of differences by region and sex in the propensity of men and women [in Europe] to live with adults and to live with children. It is expected that an East-West divide, apparent at least until the end of the 1980s, will be reflected in the European Fertility and Family Surveys (FFS) data, since some surveys from Eastern European countries were carried out only a couple of years after the transition. First a review of the changes in fertility and family patterns over the last decades is given, and then we turn to findings from FFS."
