Demographic aspects of the COVID-19 pandemic and its consequences
The 2022 special issue is dedicated to the demographic aspects and consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic. In the first months of 2020, the world was hit by an epidemic emergency of global proportions. Its short- and long-term implications are not yet fully understood, particularly since its duration is still not foreseeable. Nevertheless, the pandemic has spurred social scientists to research the impact of the virus on the society and this in a very short time after the outbreak.

Demographic aspects of human wellbeing
The 2021 special issue explores demographic perspectives on human wellbeing across time and space. While the idea of relating demographic parameters to wellbeing has been around for a while, a more concrete research agenda on the topic has gained momentum only recently. This volume gives an overview on the latest developments and shows how existing theoretical concepts and methodological tools in demography offer substantial advancements for the study of wellbeing. A large part of the volume is...

Fertility across time and space
The 2020 volume brings together many perspectives on the past, present and future of fertility. It covers both countries with very high fertility (research on high-fertility countries in Sub-Saharan Africa by D. Shapiro and A. Hinde) and countries with “ultra-low fertility”, especially in East Asia (S. Fukuda). East Asia is also covered in a review article by Y. A. Cheng, who discusses the impact of the lasting influence of Confucian culture on extreme low fertility in the region. The journal...

It examines how demographic transitions, such as declining fertility and increasing longevity, influence economic dependency ratios and support systems. Utilizing harmonized data from Eurostat, it highlights variations in public and private transfers across countries and delves into...

Broadening demographic horizons
The 2018 issue of the Vienna Yearbook of Population Research, “Broadening demographic horizons”, presents a selected set of papers that move beyond the traditional focus on age and sex structures of the population. It covers concepts and developments related to multi-regional, multi-state and probabilistic population projections; population projections by education and labour force status; and causal models of migration. The articles discuss the complexity of the demographic transition and its...

Education and fertilitiy in low-fertility settings
The 2017 issue of the Vienna Yearbook of Population Research examines the relationship between education and fertility in low-fertility contexts. The contributions document well the context-specific nature of the link between education and family behaviours, especially with respect to fertility levels, fertility timing, childlessness, non-marital childbearing, and fertility intentions. Besides their common focus on education, many articles apply a comparative perspective that illustrates the...

Population ageing
The Vienna Yearbook of Population Research 2016 approaches population ageing from a more nuanced perspective, emphasising health, life expectancy and behavioural patterns rather than chronological age. It explores innovative measures such as prospective age, which reflects remaining life expectancy, and thanatological age, which is based on years left to live. Contributions analyse ageing in different contexts, from Arctic regions to emerging economies, taking into account health, economic...

Demographic differential vulnerabilitiy to climate-related disasters
The 2015 issue of the Vienna Yearbook of Population Research examines the role of demography in understanding and addressing vulnerability, particularly in the context of climate change and climate-related disasters. The invited contributions in “Demographic Debate” explore why demographers have been slow to engage with climate change research and highlight the potential contributions they can make, such as analysing the impacts of extreme climate events on mortality and assessing social...

Determinants of unusual and differential longevity
The Vienna Yearbook of Population Research 2013 examines the determinants of exceptional human longevity, integrating perspectives from genetics, socio-environmental influences and lifestyle. It examines statistical methods, "longevity hotspots" such as Sardinia and Okinawa, and unique groups such as centenarians and academics. Contributions cover modal age at death, familial factors such as fertility and parental life expectancy, and specific risk groups, including long-lived smokers. By...

Education and the Global Fertility Transition
The 2012 issue of the Vienna Yearbook of Population Research presents research focusing on the links between education and global fertility change and their implications. The long-term rise of education levels is among the key drivers of fertility decline in the course of the demographic transition. Articles in this volume pay special attention to changes in school attainment and the implications for the timing and level of fertility. Several key channels through which education growth and...
