FAMILY AND DEMOGRAPHIC POLICIES: EUROPEAN CONTEXT AND ITALIAN REALITY - DIPOFAM / CNR-IRPPS

In the last fifty years the Italian population has undergone profound and radical structural changes connected to some major transformations of the national demographic context: the fall in the birth rate and fertility; new models of family formation; the aging of the population; the evolution of the role of women in society and the growth of foreign immigration. These are some of the main thematic areas addressed in the five reports drawn up by the multidisciplinary research team of the Institute for Research on Population and Social Policies of the National Research Council and carried out within the collaboration agreement stipulated with the Department for Family policies of the Presidency of the Council of Ministers.

The objective of the Agreement envisaged the in-depth elaboration of the information framework on family policies in Italy and in Europe. In particular, the project aimed to examine the analysis of socio-cultural and anthropological changes that have occurred in the relationship between family models and reproductive models; the evaluation of the condition and effectiveness of the interventions aimed at responding to the prospects of fertility and the social needs of families of immigrant origin.
