Trends in consensual union in Czechoslovakia are discussed using data from two surveys conducted in 1985 and 1990. "Results showed that 31% and 37% of couples contracting their first marriage lived together in 1985 and 1990, respectively. The proportion of cohabitants among couples contracting a second or third marriage was 73% and 77%. Our conclusion is that unmarried cohabitation in Czechoslovakia...is not of a Scandinavian type.... We call it 'engaged cohabitation', which is oriented toward marriage."
