The conventional approach to gauging mortality convergence in Europe relies on life expectancy estimates (e0{e^0\) at the national level. However, mortality can differ within countries significantly. To better apprehend whether Europe's mortality patterns have been converging or diverging over recent decades, we must shift our focus to regional mor...
Although there is a considerable body of research on immigrant spatial assimilation, there is a lack of comparative studies that evaluate whether differences across contexts and outcomes are genuine, or merely a product of different research designs. In response, we carry out a comprehensive analysis of childhood neighborhood contexts across multip...

There is a lack of studies taking a multicountry comparative perspective. We analyzed 60 Demographic and Health Surveys...

En junio de 2024, la Plataforma de Coordinación Inter...
