Résumé
Valeria Solesin was killed in the 13 November 2015 Paris attacks. She was completing her doctoral thesis on contemporary fertility in Italy and France. Valeria particularly focused her research on the transition from the first to the second child, and on why this transition appeared to be easier and more common in France than in Italy. To do so, she used a combination of quantitative and qualitative research methods. Her initial findings show the complexity of fertility decisions and how these decisions are constrained by a combination of individuals’ own and family characteristics, features of the labour market, and more broadly by the social and political contexts. As a tribute to Valeria, her colleagues have assembled her main conclusions in this article.
