Structural and Value Influences on the Entry into Parenthood in the Czech Republic

Hašková, Hana. 2009. „Structural and Value Influences on the Entry into Parenthood in the Czech Republic“. Demográfia. 51 (5): 66-84. ISSN 0011-8249.

The article reviews cultural and structural explanations of low fertility in Central and Eastern Europe. Then it answers the following questions: What factors have influenced decisions on (not) entering parenthood in the Czech Republic? Has the importance of any factor increased in the post-socialist period? Why have young childless 25-35 years old Czechs not entered into parenthood(yet)? Do they reject parenthood, postpone parenting or have no childbearing plans (yet)?
