Abstract
In order to understand the impact of economy‐wide socio‐economic forces on fertility, examines economies which are homogeneous with respect to political, cultural and historical character, which also contain subsectors characterized by socioeconomic diversity. First looks at previous research on fertility and then uses Missouri as a representative example of such an economy.
