Abstract

Situations involving cohabitation and unmarried mothers are analysed in order to highlight the family components that have contributed most to the continuous increase that there has been since the 1970's in the number of births occurring outside marriage. An attempt is made to identify the modern and traditional dynamics that are at the base of this demographic phenomenon.
