The course introduces the problem of household and family research from the demographic point of view. The first part of the course explains various family and households concepts, types of households, the family life cycle, modelling household formation and dissolution and household projections. The second part is aimed at the demographic aspects of the problems of modern family: the second demographic transition as the turning point in the family and household composition, demographic ageing, households headed by women. The course uses the specific Czech data.
