How the World Survived the Population Bomb: Lessons From 50 Years of Extraordinary Demographic History 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
Lam D 《Demography》2011,48(4):1231-1262
The world population will reach 7 billion in late 2011, a demographic milestone that is causing renewed attention to the challenges
caused by population growth. This article looks at the last 50 years of demographic change, one of the most extraordinary
periods in demographic history. During this period, world population grew at rates that have never been seen before and will
almost surely never be seen again. There were many concerns about the potential impact of rapid population growth in the 1960s,
including mass starvation in countries such as India, depletion of nonrenewable resources, and increased poverty in low-income
countries. The actual experience was very different. World food production increased faster than world population in every
decade since the 1960s, resource prices fell during most of the period, and poverty declined significantly in much of the
developing world. The article considers the economic and demographic explanations for the surprising successes of this important
period in demographic history. It also looks at regions that have been less successful, especially Africa, and at the lessons
for dealing with the important challenges that still remain. 相似文献

This paper considers several policy responses to declining birth rates in Australia over the twentieth century, revealing
key continuities in the ‘administration of population’. Early in the century pronatalist policies to enhance fertility predominated.
In spite of evidence in the 1890s, 1920s and 1940s that economics shaped family sizes and that women’s lives included paid
work, little acknowledgment of this occurred outside wartime. In the second half of the twentieth century, immigration largely
replaced pronatalism as a desired means of building population numbers. Century’s end brought new concerns about fertility
decline, an ageing population, immigration and increased asylum seeking. These concerns revitalized the call for a population
policy and raised unresolved questions for women.
This expression comes from Mr Ozanne, speaker in the Commonwealth House of Representatives debate on the Maternity Allowance
Bill, 1912, Australia, Commonwealth Parliamentary Debates, 3412. He spoke of ‘women doing their duty to Australia by bringing
the unclothed immigrant into the world’. 相似文献

China carries 21% of the world抯 population. Since the 1970s when the family planning policy was first carried out, China has effectively brought its rapid population growth under control and achieved a low fertility level. Meanwhile, poverty-stricken population also dropped from 250 mi… 相似文献

In this paper we follow a lead provided by Basu and Basu [‘The Greying of Populations: Concepts and Measurement,’ Demography India 16, pp. 79–89], in order to advance a class of ‘agedness’ indices which, because they have been motivated by analogous considerations in the poverty measurement literature, can find application in that area of enquiry as well. The properties of the proposed indices are discussed, and illustrations of empirical application are provided. The note is intended as a contribution to the larger enquiry into the measurement of development indicators. 相似文献
