?:abstract
  • This chapter examines the multiple determinants of declining fertility rates in many countries throughout the world and the family-friendly policies designed in response to this trend. The major factors identified as driving down fertility include the delay of childbearing related to increasing years of education, at the end of which expanding opportunities in the labor market further postpone childbirth. In addition, women’s childbearing decisions are constrained by the fact that the indirect costs of raising children fall more heavily on mothers than fathers. A reading of the research suggests that economic conditions and government support for early childhood care and education (ECCE), which promote greater gender balance between family life and work, are likely to play an important role in boosting fertility rates.
