Comparative Family Policy Database
11-01-2011
A revised version of the Comparative Family Policy Database is now available and covers the period 1960 to 2008. It was assembled under the direction of Anne H. Gauthier. It is the most comprehensive data collection on historical trends in family policies in developed welfare states, making it highly valuable for comparative studies on the development and effects of family policies (e.g. on fertility behavior). The data are available online: http://www.demogr.mpg.de/cgi-bin/databases/FamPolDB/index.plx
