Preface: Chapter 1: Reproductive decision-making in a macro-micro perspective: a conceptual framework: Aart Liefbroer, Jane Klobas, Dimiter Philipov and Icek Ajzen -- Chapter 2: Institutional settings of childbearing: a comparison of family policy development across OECD countries: Olivier Thévenon -- Chapter 3: Making the decision to have a child: Jane Klobas and Icek Ajzen -- Chapter 4: Universal and specific influences on the link between fertility intentions and behavioural outcomes: Lessons from a European comparative study: Zsolt Spéder and Balázs Kapitány -- Chapter 5: Uncertain, changing and situated fertility intentions: a qualitative analysis: Laura Bernardi, Monika Mynarska, Clémentine Rossier -- Chapter 6: Fertility-related norms across Europe: A multi-level analysis: Aart C. Liefbroer, Eva-Maria Merz and Maria-Rita Testa -- Chapter 7: Is reproductive decision-making a feasible domain for policies?: Dimiter Philipov.

This book provides new insights into the significant gap that currently exists between desired and actual fertility in Europe. It examines how people make decisions about having children and demonstrates how the macro-level environment affects micro-level decision-making. Written by an international team of leading demographers and psychologists, the book presents the theoretical and methodological developments of a three-year, European Commission-funded project named REPRO (Reproductive Decision-Making in a Macro-Micro Perspective). It also provides an overview of the research conducted by REPRO researchers both during and after the project. The book examines fertility intentions from quantitative and qualitative perspectives, demonstrates how the macro-level environment affects micro-level decision-making, and offers a multi-level analysis of fertility-related norms across Europe. Overall, this book offers insight into how people make decisions to have children, when they are most likely to act on their decisions, and how different social and policy settings affect their decisions and actions. It will appeal to researchers, graduate students, and policy advisors with an interest in fertility, demography, and life-course decision making.
