Vienna Yearbook of Population Research 2010

8

The 2010 issue of the Vienna Yearbook of Population Research looks at the connections between education and demography, with a broader ambition of developing the subfield of the demography of education. The volume opens with three Demographic Debate contributions that arrive at contrasting conclusions about the „impact“ of education on population dynamics and heterogeneity. Partly, this disagreement revolves around the question: how much does it matter whether education „causes“ the demographic heterogeneity and how much it is merely a signal of some deeper underlying „cause“ of heterogeneity. The articles in this volume address the relationship between education and fertility (looking at childlessness, fertility level, and fertility timing), education and wealth disparities in mortality and morbidity, measurement of education progression, and education disparities in ethno-cultural groups. The volume also introduces The IIASA-VID global reconstructions and projections of educational attainment by age and sex.
