Mortality between ages 5 and 15
Bruno Masquelier
The mortality of children under age 5, which has fallen substantially
across the world in recent years, is a closely monitored indicator
of health in a country. But what about the mortality of older children?
Drawing on data from a new international database, Bruno Masquelier
describes the risks of dying between ages 5 and 15, how they vary
across different countries, and the measures that could be taken
to reduce mortality in this age group.

People who identify as bisexual in France
Mathieu Trachman, Tania Lejbowicz, et l'équipe de l'enquête
Virage
Although many individuals describe themselves as bisexual, statistical
surveys have given little attention to this population, which contributes
to making bisexuality a secondary sexuality. Drawing on data from
the 2015 VIRAGE survey, Mathieu Trachman and Tania Lejbowicz present
some of the social characteristics of bisexual people in France
and show how they differ from homosexuals and heterosexuals.

Late childbearing continues to increase in developed countries
Eva Beaujouan, Tomáš Sobotka
Delayed childbearing represents a profound change in reproductive
behaviour and concerns all developed countries. One of its consequences
is a growing number of births to women aged 40 and over. Éva
Beaujouan and Tomáš Sobotka compare the situation today
in different countries, situate it in the context of historical
trends, and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of having children
later in life.

in selected countries around the world.

Why is French life expectancy increasing more slowly?
Gilles Pison
Life expectancy has progressed more slowly in France
in recent years. Is this a temporary phenomenon, or does it signal
a new long-term pattern of change? Gilles Pison analyses this question
and examines how trends in France compare with those observed in
other developed countries.
