Family, Political Economy, and Demographic Change
Family, Political Economy, and Demographic Change represents an unprecedented interdisciplinary effort to discover how changes in family life and demographic behavior actually occurred in this crucial period, and how people's lives were affected. The book takes issue with a number of the most influential demographic and sociological theories dealing with the evolution of the Western family and the factors responsible for fertility decline.

Per secoli in balia dei vincoli e delle forze naturali, la piana fucense diventa, con i s...
