[Possibilities and limits of pronatalist policies in the Western world: possible fields of intervention and determinants of fertility].
"Two questions are discussed in this paper:  (1) what are, according to theory, the possible fields of intervention if one wants to act on the determinants of fertility?  (2) according to those theories which seem to be validated by empirical analysis, what are the main determinants of the present fertility trend, on which it would be necessary to act in order to stop the decline and obtain an upward movement?  The author concludes that, according to the present state of knowledge, a pronatalist policy is out of reach, except as a mere experimental exercise." (SUMMARY IN ENG AND SPA)
