Over the last few decades, researchers in fields such as history,
the social sciences and medicine have had improved access to census
materials in northern Europe, making an update on these
infrastructures both possible and topical. This book's presentation
of European census history and infrastructure is not strictly
limited to northern Europe, although most of the Mosaic materials
originated north of the forty-fifth parallel. The template for
modern census-taking was created by Adolphe Quetelet in Belgium in
the 1830s, and his census standards were spread almost globally by
the international statistical conferences. This book explores
Icelandic residence patterns amongst the elderly; Siberian polygamy
as indicated in the Polar Census; men's living arrangements in
Northern Norway; Sweden's pioneering register-based census in 1930;
unique source materials on the Soviet family; and data on Ukrainian
and Russian population groups in the most recent Ukrainian
censuses. All of these contributions stress the book's focus on
Northern European census data. This book was originally published
as a special issue of The History of the Family.
