Resumen

The aim of this paper is to explore the reproductive behaviour of Spanish cohabiting couples in which the woman is long-term unemployed (24 months or more). The initial hypothesis is that this relationship is mediated by the socio-economic and socio-demographic situation of the family. Therefore, while in certain couples, long-term female unemployment reduces the possibility of having children, for others it may constitute an opportunity to have children. We take advantage of the Labour Force Survey 2005-2019, covering the pre-crisis, crisis and post-crisis periods. The results show the importance of the life course (age and previous children), the labour situation of the couple, the educational level, the duration of unemployment of women, the unemployment benefit allowance and the context of the economic cycle as proxies for future expectations in the labour market and in family trajectories.
