Introduction: the "theory" of demographic transition - its conciseness, diversity and flexibility - problems, methods and the field of enquiry. Part 1 Stages of demographic transition: demographic transition - the current position; the decline in mortality; the fertility decline; divergence and concordance; the migration transition; the notion of the cycle in demography - is post-transition fertility cyclical? Part 2 Forms of demographic transition: the types of demographic transition; chronology and typology of the ageing of populations; the transitional multiplier of population; industrial revolution and demographic revolution in the 18th century - the French-English paradox; European transitions from Malthus to Pincus; contemporary transitions - the strength of the model; revolution of mental attitudes and demographic revolution. Part 3 Economic implications of demographic transition: economic stagnation and neo-Malthusianism - two falsely opposed models; economic progress and demographic transition in poor countries - 30 years of experience, 1950-1980; secular growth in the industrial world; economic breakthrough in poor countries. Appendices: Crude birth-rates; total fertility rates; crude death-rates; infant mortality rates; real product. |
