LIFETIMING

The general objective of the project is to explain variations in the views of European men and women on the organisation of the life course. Attention is paid to markers of the transition from one life stage to another, the content of social norms about the timing and sequencing of demographic events, and the importance of life planning in contemporary societies. These questions are answered in a comparative perspective and making use of data from the Timing of Life module in the 2006 wave of the European Social Survey. MORE
