چکیده
Kinship groups can have considerable importance (e.g., generational support, inheritance, and information for key life events). During demographic transitions, kinship networks are reshaped by changes in mortality fertility rates.

How does variance in fertility change over the demographic transition?
Most work on the human fertility transition has focused on declines in mean fertility. However, understanding changes in the variance of reproductive outcomes can be equally important for evolutionary questions about the heritability of fertility, individual determinants of fertility and changing patterns of reproductive skew. Here, we document how variance in completed fertility among women (4...

Over the last decades the research on monetary policy has largely concentrated on the impact of monetary authorities’ decisions on inflation and the fine-tuning of the macroeconomic, so that distributional effects of monetary policy which are non-trivial has been ignored.

متن کاملLong-term effects of the demographic transition on family and kinship networks in Britain.
the first demographic transition started in many western industrialized societies around the latter part of the nineteenth century with steady mortality improvement. expectation of life at birth, about 40 years at the start of the transition, has now doubled (riley 2001). Fertility declined from a level of about five children to under two children per woman over the same period (Coale and watki...
متن کاملHow does degree dispersity affect an order-disorder transition?
We focus on the role played by the node degree distribution on the way collective phenomena emerge on complex networks. To address this question, we focus analytically on a typical model for cooperative behaviour, the Majority Rule, applied to dichotomous networks. The latter are composed of two kinds of nodes, each kind i being characterized by a degree ki. Dichotomous networks are therefore a...
متن کاملHow Does Topology Affect Security in Wireless Ad Hoc Networks?
The secure operation of ad hoc networks faces the novel challenge of location verification on top of the security challenges that wireline networks face. The novelty lies in the fact that a node can correctly validate who it is, but lie about its location and exploit this to create problems to the network. There are three main factors that make ad hoc networks more vulnerable: (a) nodes can ove...
