World Mortality Trends Since 1870. Jeanne G. Gobalet
Consequences of Rapid Population Growth in Developing Countries
Technological Prospects and Population Trends
Technological Prospects and Population Trends
Three to five main challenges to demographic research
A presidential address is poor occasion for changing one's ways, and inveterate compromisers compromise. So that, unable to choose among single integrated topics, I have decided to consider a topic per component of population change, much in the order in which my own work has evolved. Mortality heads the list, as befits pride of place to one's research first born; fertility will come third. Internal migration will come between, at some underserve…

Recent Mortality Trends in Latin America, Asia and Africa
Recent mortality trends in Latin America, Asia and Africa
The article summarizes the mortality experience of the world's low-income areas during the past generation, as evidenced by the available data on trends, levels and sex-age characteristics. A major focus of the review is to set this recent history in perspective, by comparing it with previous long-run mortality declines in higher-income areas. A second focus is upon causal factors; the interpretation emphasized is that these were relatively speci…
Population Growth and Levels of Consumption
The Revolution in Death Control in Nonindustrial Countries
Latin America's population explosion is mainly the result of drastic declines in mortality, which have frequently matched or exceeded the maximum trends ever encountered in the low-mortality, industrial nations. The causes of the declines have been primarily noneconomic, suggesting that the traditional view of the relations between mortality and levels of living in economically un derdeveloped areas does not afford a reliable basis for explanatio…

Population Composition and Fertility Trends
THE literature on national fertility movements has long had as a central focus the changes occurring within social and economic sectors of the population. Surprisingly little attention, however, has been given to the interrelations between such sectoral movements and the change for the population as a whole. Because of shifts in socio-economic composition, a population's overall fertility may remain constant even while substantial trends are taki…
A century of international mortality trends
The basic data used in an earlier paper, on very nearly all the national life tables ever published, are applied here to several additional questions. The first two sections examine some past and prospective effects of mortality changes on potential size of the labour force and on net reproductivity. Sex differentials are reviewed next, with attention to their direction, trends, variations by age and regional comparisons. The last section takes u…
Life Tables from Limited Data
A century of international mortality trends
An attempt is made to summarize the chief generalizations that can be drawn from available evidence on world mortality developments during the last hundred years. Past and prospective trends are compared for three broad groups of populations or approximately those in the West, Eastern and Southern Europe, and Latin America, Africa, and Asia. Two major points of emphasis are that the usual methods of comparing regional changes can usefully be supp…
