V Praze je blaze aneb co si myslíme o životě lidí žijícím v našem hlavním městě a co z toho je pravda

The popular image of Prague is that the city is rich and its citizens earn high salaries and have high living standard.

Proměny časování a způsobu návratu matek do zaměstnání

In a European comparison, the Czech Republic is one of the countries where motherhood has the biggest negative impact on women’s employment participation. Some researchers explain this situation as resulting from Czech mothers’ preferences for a long‑term interruption to their labour market participation. Others stress that preferences are structurally and culturally embedded and identify barriers to the return of Czech mothers to the labour market. In this article, the author first introduces a critiqu…

Single Motherhood and Child Mortality in Sub-Saharan African: A Life Course Perspective

Single motherhood in sub-Saharan Africa has received surprisingly little attention, although it is widespread and has critical implications for children’s wellbeing. Using survival analysis techniques, we estimate the probability of becoming a single mother over women’s life course and investigate the relationship between single motherhood and child mortality in 11 countries in sub-Saharan Africa. Although a mere 5 % of women in Ethiopia have a premarital birth, one in three women in Liberia will become mo…
