“…Becker and Bloom, 1998;Krisjane, 2001;Sobotka et al, 2003;Nagy, 2005;Nagy, 2006;Burneika et al, 2013;Otto and Chmielewska, 2014) claim that the growth of territorial imbalances and the degradation of networks of settlements in the CEE countries are consequences of the transition period. When switching from a planned to a market economy, power was given to entrepreneurs (Scott and Storper, 2003), as entrepreneurship was thought to be the engine that would lift the country to a higher economic level.…”

“…Additional components are high divorce rate, low frequency of abortions, and a high proportion of women using modern contraception. However, the sequence is not universal, some stages are country-specific, and, above all, there is within-country heterogeneity (Sobotka et al 2003;Lesthaeghe and Neidert 2006;Sobotka 2008).…”

“…According to the survey of the Israel Association for the Advancement of Women's Health (2003), the pill became the most frequently used contraception among Jewish women aged 25-44: 26% used the pill and another 18% used the IUD. Therefore in this respect Israeli Jewish women have passed the first phase of the SDT (Sobotka et al 2003).…”

In the early 1990s Czechia was witness to a dramatic fall in total fertility as a result of fertility postponement (Sobotka 2003(Sobotka , 2004a(Sobotka , 2004b and diversifying reproductive behaviour (Kantorová 2004;Sobotka 2004a).…”

In the last quarter century, women's reproductive behaviour underwent a marked change in Czechia. The 2011 census showed a fall in cohort fertility below two children per woman by the end of her reproductive span. Factors behind changes in fertility, particularly from a cohort perspective, have not been sufficiently analyzed. The aim of this article is to determine the main factors influencing cohort fertility in Czechia. The main objective is to test the impact of the most frequently discussed factors of fertility at the individual level. The analysis is based on anonymised individual-level data from the 2011 Czech Population and Housing Census. We used the method of causal modelling to monitor the impact of various factors on cohort fertility. It was confirmed, that the key factor behind fertility levels was the marital status (married women are more likely to become mothers than single women). Other important factors included woman's income (a higher income raises the chance of remaining childless or having only one child) and achieved educational level (the level of childlessness increases as the level of education rises). Future fertility rates in Czechia will depend mainly on the extent to which university educated women will be capable to reconcile work and family life in order to fulfil their reproductive ambitions. By analysing the differences in cohort fertility among various population groups and identifying the factors that may affect fertility levels across these subpopulations, it is possible to gain a better understanding of the mechanisms behind changes of reproductive behaviour.
