•In our new paper w/@JackSocUQ @JaneenBaxter7 we find that risk of union dissolution increases when either partner reports an illness. Financial stress arises as a relevant mediator of the association. Check it out:… vidalsergi.wordpress.com/202…

Can't wait to start this project! I feel very lucky having made the cut. We will be looking for postdocs (call should be out within the next weeks) and a PhD student (later this academic year) to work within the project. Will keep you posted!
📢📢We are very happy to announce that our researcher @DBoertien has been awarded an #ERCStG to study inequality of opportunity experienced by sexual minority groups from a cross-national perspective #MINEQ_ERC @ERC_Research

Paper w Philipp Lersch on household wealth and separation in Germany now online @JMF_NCFR. Women experience major drops in household wealth after both separation from marriage and cohabitation, for men this is only the case after ending a marriage. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Standard errors of our analysis are large, hence, future confirmation of results extra desirable. But if confirmed, it raises the question of whether regulating division of (parts of) household wealth after separation of cohabiting unions should be debated or not.

The latest "Our world in data" article is on marriage and divorce, some nice elements, particularly for teaching in family sociology and demography in there. ourworldindata.org/marriages…

Although marital dissolution substantially reduced both men and women's wealth, within-couple wealth inequalies are maintained at divorce as @NicoleKapelle and @JaneenBaxter7 show. Another great publication from our #MyWealth team: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

The top richest 1% changed in composition across time. Until the 16th century, it was almost compounded by nobles, while 3 centuries later mostly by bourgeoisies. However, it was in the transition between the two groups when the top 1% concentrated more wealth (almost 20%).

My paper on late parenthood across the low fertility countries is published: much sharper rise among women than men, and people are now clearly challenging the natural fertility barriers, particularly for a first child.
