Abstract

ETHNICITY occupies a central position in FERTILITY studies in multiethnic societies since it provides a context for FERTILITY behavior. However, despite the multiethnic structure of the Iranian society, few studies have been conducted on the relationship between ETHNICITY and FERTILITY. This paper seeks to examine some hypotheses on the relationship between ETHNICITY and FERTILITY using the data from "The Study of Socio-economic Characteristics of Households" in 2001.The results of the study are indicative of ethnic-fertility differentials in Iran. Assimilation characteristics as well as CULTURAL/ETHNIC EFFECT hypotheses have been used to explain the differentials. Statistical analysis revealed that ethnic-fertility differentials reduce substantially after controlling for selected socio-demographic characteristics particularly for education, and thus convergence of FERTILITY behavior of ethnic groups was observed by the authors. Nonetheless, this was only a partial convergence and some of the ethnic differences in FERTILITY remain unexplained. The remaining differences can be explained by proximate determinates of FERTILITY among the ethnic groups, on the one hand, and particular culture, social history, values, customs and beliefs prevalent among the ethnic groups, on the other.Anthropological/demographic studies using qualitative methods can provide a deeper understanding on impacts of ethnic norms, values and sub-culture of a given ethnic group on FERTILITY behaviors in Iran.
