6. I. Demographic Transition Model

7. Demographic Transition Model: the way a country’s demographics change as the country develops (economically) in 4 stages

8. Draw it in notes:

9. 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

10. 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

11. 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

12. 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

13. 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)

14. PRO NATALIST – policies that encourage natural population growth (Making babies)
