Abstract

This paper is one set of seven reviews of evidence, from the United Kingdom and overseas, on the causes of marital breakdown and the effectiveness of policies and services intended to reduce its incidence. In this paper evidence on the socio-demographic predictors of divorce is considered. Also taken into account is the influence of cohabitation on partnership breakdown. The research evidence shows that early marriage, premarital childbearing, and previous partnership breakdown are among the most important of the demographic factors predicting marital breakdown. Further research, of an interdisciplinary kind, is required to identify links between these demographic factors and psychological, social, and economic factors.

Abstract

This study looks at what it is like to choose childlessness. In-depth interviews with voluntarily childless women and their partners challenge the popular stereotypes, giving insights into how people come to make the decision not to have children, and what the choice means for them. Examining why increasing numbers of people are choosing childlessness reveals some of the pressures and difficulties of reconciling society's expectations of material success and adult independence with the demands of parenthood and the needs of children. The study concludes by setting out the implications of its findings for further research and future policy. (Family Policy Studies Centre)

Abstract

The articles in this volume are dedicated to Professor Ahmad Mahdavi Damghani for the breadth and depth of his interests and his influence on those interests. They attest to the fact that his fervor and rigorously surgical attention to detail have found fertile ground in a wide variety of disciplines, including (among others) Persian literature and philology; Islamic history and historiography; Arabic literature and philology; and Islamic philosophy and jurisprudence. The volume has brought together some of the most respected scholars in the fields of Islamic studies and Islamic literatures, all his prior students, to contribute with articles that touch on the fields Professor Mahdavi Damghani has so permanently touched with his astonishing scholarship and attention to detail.
