Aspects of the Analysis of Family Structure
The Decline of Fertility in Europe
This volume summarizes the major findings of the Princeton European Fertility Project. The Project, begun in 1963, was a response to the realization that one of the great social revolutions of the last century, the remarkable decline in marital fertility in Europe, was still poorly understood. Originally published in 1986. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books…
Growth and Structure of Human Populations
Although mathematical demography has traditionally studied the so-called stable population (fixed mortality and fertility schedules), Ansley Coale investigates now the dynamics of population growth and structure—the changing age composition of a population as birth and death rates fluctuate. Originally published in 1972. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books f…
Human Fertility in Russia Since the Nineteenth Century
The birth rate in late-nineteenth century Russia was high and virtually constant, but by 1970 it had fallen by about two-thirds. Although similar reductions have occurred in other countries, the decline in Russian fertility is of particular interest because it took place in a setting of great ethnic heterogeneity and under economic and social institutions different from those in the West. This book tells the full statistical story of trends in Ru…
Modèles démographiques
La première table de mortalité, celle de Halley, supposait la population de Breslau stationnaire ; la démographie recourt donc aux modèles depuis ses débuts. Louis Henry définissait ceux-ci « comme l'étude de relations numériques en vue de déceler les causes, de s'y retrouver dans la complexité d'un ensemble de données non indépendantes, de justifier des méthodes de mesures ou des procédés de corrections d'erreurs... Ils remplacent dans bien des …

The development of new models of nuptiality and fertility
Le développement de nouveaux modèles de nuptialité et de fécondité Ansley Coale Le premier problème posé était de trouver une expression mathématique pour la fonction de fréquence de l'âge au premier mariage, qui suggère en même temps une théorie du mariage. On est parti de fonctions de répartition (distributions cumulées) observées, et on a constaté qu'au prix d'un décalage horizontal et d'un changement des deux échelles, elles étaient toutes su…
New Estimates of Fertility and Population in the United States
Census decennial enumerations are utilized to achieve two useful estimates: (l) Annual series of estimates of births, birth rates, and fertility rates for the white population of the U.S. from 1855 to the present (the first set of data on an annual basis); (2) Adjusted single-year age distributions of native white population and estimated undercounts by five-year age groups for the white population for each census since 1880. Originally published…
Population Growth and Economic Development
The main contribution of this book lies in its focus on real alternatives in future population growth. At some time-taken as 1956 in India for this case study-a low-income country may have the option of effectively promoting the reduction of fertility, or (by inaction) of permitting fertility to remain at high levels. This book clearly shows the nature and extent of the economic gains resulting from fertility reduction. Since most low-income area…
