Family And Marriage

Reformation of modern Dagestan society has directly affected the sphere of family and marriage. Transformations specific to the family and marriage sphere reflect in the reproductive function of the family and actualize the need to study reproductive processes and factors that have positive and negative influence on the family and family behavior. Ignoring the problems of the family and marriage sphere and deterioration of the principles of reproductive behavior have contributed to negative trends in the family institution. The article deals with reproductive behavior and attitudes of the Dagestan peoples, presents sociological measurement of actual reproductive behavior of mothers, refers to the factors that affect increase and decrease in birth rate, shows changes in the planning of a future family peculiar to modern Dagestan society. The study has revealed various reproductive attitudes peculiar to Dagestan peoples. At the same time, social factors have a huge impact on the process of planning the desired and available number of children, and decrease in the birth rate in modern Dagestan society acquires the status of a socio-cultural problem. Besides, there is a tendency to deterioration of family and marriage values and destruction of the foundations of the traditional family. In the mass consciousness and behavior of the Dagestan peoples, there is orientation toward “having children” during the first years after marriage. However, a certain number of respondents belong to a “career” type of the family, financial and educational status and career are more important for them than the family and family values.

Demographic Policy

Competent demographic policy implies an understanding by the state of the economic, social, and demographic processes taking place in society. In earlier Russian and foreign studies, the authors found a number of fertility factors, however, the direction of influence of such determinants could be opposite. Aware of the special influence of sociocultural attitudes and values of the population on the number of children in a family, the author made an attempt to identify the determinants of fertility based on an empirical study of the World Values Survey. Using statistical and econometric methods, models that reflect the determinants of fertility in modern Russia were constructed. This work revealed a positive effect on the birth rate of religiosity, traditional views and the importance of the family for the respondent. Inversely related to the number of children in a family such factors as the level of education of the population and the value of leisure.

The Life Course

The study raises the question of whether it is possible to verify Rowntree's and Chayanov's models of recurrent poverty and economic tensions during the life course of proletarian families, by using recent French studies on peasants and urban workers since the seventeenth century. Using evidence from preindustrial France about the poor, the study examines family size and the amplitude of social differentiation in the rural and urban context. The number of children living at home does not appear to have a negative influence on the standard of living. No correlation was found in Rheims between the appearance or nonappearance of families on the tax rolls and the vital evolution of the family life course. These findings indicate the absence of family-regulated poverty over time.

And Control

The research featured the decline of legitimate birth rate in the context of the transformation that family institution is currently undergoing. According to the Demography National project of the Russian Federation, the key objective of the national demographic policy is to increase the number of children up to 1.7 per woman. The authors believe that it is impossible to achieve the target indicator without revealing the institutional capacity of the so-called traditional family, which has a lower the level of birth control by abortion and contraception. In order to determine the institutional capacity of the national project, the authors estimated the legitimate birth rate and the level of birth control by the population. The methods involved the Coale-Trussell’s model, which is based on the assumption that controlled birth rate deviates from natural birth rate. The study was based on the data about the number of births in 2017. The data were obtained from twelve Siberian regions and included such information as maternal age and legitimacy. The Coale-Trussell’s model revealed a good institutional capacity that can enhance the demographic function of the family and increase the birth rate.

The article examines the change in family values in Belarus as reflected in the materials of the magazine «Rabotnica i sjaljanka» from the 1960s to the 2010s. Based on the analysis of the thematic distribution of publications, the characteristics of the heroines, the female duties declared by the magazine and the presentation of the topic of marriage and family at the level of rhetoric, the following conclusions are drawn. In reflecting the materials of the magazine after the 1990s, the role of family and marriage is increasing, the professional roles and responsibilities of a woman are supplemented by the need to show skill in everyday life, to maintain beauty and attractiveness, which corresponds to the tendencies of traditionalisation of values according to survey data. At the same time, the increase in divorce rates and a decrease in the number of children in the family are normalised.

Demographic Policy

In Russia, in 2007, the Concept of Demographic Policy for the period up to 2025 was developed and approved. One of the key tasks is to increase the birth rate of the population. The measures taken to stimulate the birth rate of the second and subsequent children in the family do not bring the desired result. By 2019, the birth rate in the country again fell to the «pre-reform» level. The article is devoted to the description of the main theories that explain the current situation with the birth rate not only in Russia, but also in the world as a whole: A. Smith’s feedback paradox, the theory of social  capillarity by A. Dumont, Caldwell’s theory of flows of goods. The concept of reproductive behavior is considered.

Interest in studying the status of the Kyrgyz family at the present stage is caused by the unstable situation in society. The socio-economic crisis of the Kyrgyz society, which led to market relations, unemployment, migration and poverty, affected the needs of family members. The mobilization of the family's internal capabilities for survival in a crisis, the preference for material well-being to spiritual values have become the main factors in reducing the value of the family and weakening the status of parenthood. Changes in traditional family values caused social risks that negatively affected the quality of socialization of the individual, the integrity of the family, the structure of family and marriage relations, the status of the family, which led to the dysfunctionality of the institution of the Kyrgyz family. The family is the only historically determined and stable institution of Kyrgyz society that can withstand the destructive and destabilizing situations of society. This requires purposeful strengthening of the social potential of the family, parents, youth and effective family policy of the state.

Family social strength positively correlated with family transactions and its environment. This study aimed to examine decision making and the value of family transactions with its environment towards family social strength. The study used a cross-sectional design involving 120 intact families who have children under five years old and selected by stratified disproportional random sampling according to their residence (FP village and non-FP village) in Village Muara, Pasirjaya, West Bogor. The analyses showed that family social strength had a positive correlation with wife’s education level, decision making, and value of the family transaction otherwise family strength had a negatively correlated with the number of family and children. The result of the regression tests showed that decision making and the value of the family transaction had a positive effect on family social strength, but the number of children had a negative influence on family social strength. The regression tests showed either with family or without family characteristics, decision making and transaction value had a positive effect on family social strength. Contrarily, family characteristics on the number of children, both with and without the dimensions of decision making and transaction value consistently had an adverse effect on family social strength.
