I. Demographic Transition Model
Demographic Transition Model: the way a country’s demographics change as the country develops (economically) in 4 stages
Draw it in notes:
1. Stage 1: LOW GROWTH/Pre-Industrial VERY high birth and death rates with almost no long term natural increase Early humans: hunting/gathering Humans have a seasonal migration pattern – move with the heard Mongolian Nomads
2. Stage 2: HIGH GROWTH/Pre-Industrial Rapid decline in death + high birth rates = high natural increase Industrial Revolution lead to innovations in medicine and agriculture. Rural Living Economy dominated by agriculture
3. Stage 3: Decreasing Growth/Post-Industrial Birth rates rapidly decline, death rates decline, and natural increase begin to balance Urban/City living Small living space Less children per family
4. Stage 4: LOW GROWTH Very low birth and death rates = no natural increase and maybe even a decrease Zero Population Growth (ZPG): when CBR = CDR Shift toward service economy Women in the workforce Women have more education
5. HYPOTHETICAL STAGE 5 Population starts to decline, CDR > CBR, Negative NIR Pro-Natalist Policies: Laws and programs to encourage reproduction (ex. France) Anti-Natalist Policies: laws to discourage reproduction (China’s One Child Policy)
PRO NATALIST – policies that encourage natural population growth (Making babies)
