How many people live alone in France?
Laurent Toulemon - Sophie Pennec
According to the 2007 census, 14% of the French population
lives alone. What age groups are most concerned? Is there any difference
between men and women? Is this proportion increasing? Laurent Toulemon
and Sophie Pennec provide answers to these questions and explain
that being counted as living alone in a dwelling actually covers
a range of situations, since one in ten persons in this category
do not live alone all the time.

Interactive maps of the world population
on the INED website
Gilles Pison - Hélène Mathian
- Christine Plumejeaud - Jérôme Gensel
Maps provide an invaluable tool for illustrating variations
in demographic phenomena across countries. Even more so when the
maps are interactive and provide a moving picture of changes over
time. A new application of this kind, showing changes in 30 indicators
recorded since 1950 and projected up to 2100, is now available on
the INED website. Its designers, Gilles Pison, Hélène
Mathian, Christine Plumejeaud and Jérôme Gensel present
this new tool and describe how it works.

Unexpected developments in Maghrebian
fertility
Zahia Ouadah-Bedidi - Jacques Vallin
- Ibtihel Bouchoucha
In the countries of the Maghreb (1) where fertility
was traditionally very high, the rapid and almost simultaneous fertility
decline in the 1980s came as a surprise. Demographers then predicted
a steady fall to below two children per women, following the trend
observed in many countries of Asia and Latin America. But as Zahia
Ouadah-Bedidi, Jacques Vallin et Ibtihel Bouchoucha explain, fertility
in North Africa has again surprised observers by remaining consistently
above the two-child threshold.

France and Germany: a history of criss-crossing
demographic curves
Gilles Pison
The demographic situations of France and Germany are
very different. In France, women have two children on average and
the population is increasing, while in Germany, they have just one
and a half, and the population is declining. If these trends continue,
the French population will overtake that of Germany in the near
future. Yet in the past, it was Germany that led the way in terms
of demographic vigour. Gilles Pison explains the reasons for this
turnaround, and its consequences.

2002-2012
Claude Grasland - France Guérin-Pace
- Marion Le Texier - Bénédicte Garnier
The circulation of the European currency provides an
indicator of the movements and contacts between the different regions
of Europe. A series of surveys have been conducted to track the
movement of foreign euro coins in France since they were first brought
into circulation ten years ago. Claude Grasland, France Guérin-Pace,
Marion Le Texier and Bénédicte Garnier present the main
survey findings.
