“…In addition, since the decline in mortality was only moderate before 1850-60 (Nadal, 1963;Vicens, 1961;Vilar, 1965), its contribution to the accelerated population growth must be considered minimal. Under these conditions of mortality and migration, we must assume that the population growth during the eighteenth and the early nineteenth centuries was the product of rising fertility.…”

"This article attempts a description of the fertility and nuptiality patterns of a group of selected localities in Catalonia [Spain] from the late eighteenth century to the mid-nineteenth century. The pattern of fertility transition in Catalonia can be described as starting from nuptiality conditions of early and quasi-universal marriage. The pattern of nuptiality is preserved throughout the process in its essentials. The transition, then, was largely limited to a decline in marital fertility. The evidence suggests an onset occurring in the 1830s, closer to the French experience than to that of any other Western European country. Finally, the analysis of the 84 local areas supports the proposition that structural factors had a significant effect on both the mid-nineteenth century level of marital fertility and the rate of decline during the 70-year period under study."

In the past decade a tremendous increase in family history research in Italy, Spain and Portugal provides new insight into family processes and has many implications for generalizations regarding the course of European family history. In this article many of these new findings are detailed and their historical and theoretical implications assessed. Previous generalizations regarding Mediterranean family history are examined in light of this new evidence. Among the topics discussed are the sources and methods employed in recent research, the household formation systems operating in Italy and Iberia, the role played by inheritance norms and by dowry, changing childrear ing practices—especially as regards child abandonment, marriage patterns, the family lives of the elderly, and the impact of migration on family life. The benefits of considering certain cultural topics in understanding the course of southern European family history are also considered

Es todavía mucho lo que ignoramos acerca de la demografía española en el siglo XVIII, pese a contar con una serie de trabajos de gran interés, y distinta significación, como los de M. Livi Bacci (1968), F. Bustelo (1972 a y b), V. Pérez Moreda (1980) y J. Nadal (1984). No se trata sólo de que persistan numerosos interrogantes sobre los niveles de fecundidad y mortalidad, sino que ni siquiera hay acuerdo entre los investigadores sobre el grado de ocultación de los distintos censos y vecindarios, y por lo tanto son todavía objeto de discusión aspectos tan fundamentales como el volumen mismo de la población y su tasa de crecimiento.
