Long-term influences on
international trade and economic development of differentials in
population growth between developed and developing countries are
discussed. "It is argued that demographic trends that can be
accurately forecast for the rest of the century and that can no longer
be affected by population policy measures will adversely affect the
terms of trade for developing countries and generate strong pressures
in the developed countries toward protectionism. The pattern of
development that proved most successful in economically backward
countries in the past quarter century--that of export-led growth--is
likely to be less open to developing countries in the coming
decades."

The global population situation is
reviewed, with a focus on the relationship between population growth
and economic growth. Instead of projecting future rates of population
growth on an extrapolation of past trends, the author suggests that
future rates of population growth will depend on changes in the value
and costs of children. In concluding, he suggests that education
concerning the full costs of large families and policies to influence
fertility are appropriate, but that fertility decisions should be left
to the individuals concerned.

This publication contains
three papers on population economics. The approach is primarily
theoretical, although some empirical data are also provided. The first
paper, by Gerold Meyer-Thoms, deals with the demographic determinants
of secondary income distribution. The focus is on how changes in
age-specific birth and death rates, in average age at entry into the
labor force, and in average retirement age affect the dependency
burden.
The second paper, by Gerhard Schmitt-Rink, concerns the
relationship between population growth and aggregate savings. In the
final paper, by Rainer Zimmermann, the use of migration as a policy
measure for influencing population growth is investigated. Some brief
examples from Mauritius and the Federal Republic of Germany are
included.

survey data concerning 491 rural and 507 urban households. Both the
direct and indirect costs of children under the age of 12 are
investigated. Separate consideration is given to the costs of children
under one year of age, to cost differentials between small and large
families, and to cost differentials by socioeconomic status. The
contributions of older children to the household are also
discussed.

Conflicting theories
concerning the economic value of children in rural India and its
relationship to household fertility decisions are reviewed. The
emphasis is on the theories developed by Mamdani and Vlassoff, which
are examined using survey data from a village in southern Bihar. The
results confirm Mamdani's view that children become net economic assets
to their parents at around age nine or ten. However, no evidence is
provided to reject Vlassoff's thesis. The authors conclude that the
child benefit/cost equation may be regionally specific in
India.

population growth. ISBN 0-8039-9487-7. LC 84-26206. 1985. 138 pp.
Sage Publications: Beverly Hills, California/New Delhi, India. In Eng.
The author examines the relationship between population growth and
economic development in three villages in India using data from a 1980
study. He asserts that "in rural areas the size of the family is not
influenced by economic levels or status differences, but by the
opportunities of inter-generational mobility. According to the
evidence marshalled in this book, it is those who experience downward
mobility who have the smaller families."
The three villages are
compared in terms of socioeconomic infrastructure, economic
transformation, socioeconomic background and living conditions, social
structure, family size, and population growth rates. The findings
indicate a correlation between intergenerational occupational mobility
and family size; the significance of castes in determining occupational
mobility is also noted. The author relates his conclusions to those of
other studies and emphasizes the need for an interdisciplinary approach
to the study of population and development.

to a questionnaire distributed in 1984 is presented. Planners from
Egypt, Ethiopia, Kenya, Lesotho, Nigeria, Tanzania, Tunisia, and Zambia
reported on the inclusion of 21 designated population variables in
their countries' two most recent development plans. Data from United

observed that while awareness of the importance of population issues to
African development is more widespread today than in the years
immediately following independence, most current development plans do
not include specific population policies.

demographic change in developing countries. ISBN 0-19-828459-4. LC
83-20848. 1984. xv, 179 pp. Clarendon Press: Oxford, England. In Eng.
A fully simultaneous model of human resource development and
economic growth in developing countries is presented. It includes a
fertility change model "which employs only changes in causal variables
and which treats change in family planning activity as an endogenous
variable." The results are cast into a fully dynamic, data-base
simulation model which can be used to project alternative futures for
particular countries.
The author first presents "a detailed
econometric analysis of the role of human resource development in
[developing countries'] growth during the past two decades. The second
part is devoted to an econometric investigation of declines in
fertility and mortality during the same period, with particular
attention paid to the contribution of human resource development. In
the final part, the simulation model is developed and
discussed."
This model is then used "to analyze the effects of
alternative human resource policies on changes in output and population
in countries drawn from different world regions. The demographic
projections are compared with recent projections by international
agencies, and the book concludes with some thoughts about the potential
use of structural modelling in projection
exercises."

"This paper is
concerned mainly with the accuracy of forecasts of age dependency
ratios (or short age ratios) and the size of age groups in total
population." The geographic focus is on Western, industrialized
countries.
"A main conclusion of this paper is that the forecasting
accuracy of the dependency burden is not very sensitive to the value
chosen for the ratio of costs of aged adults to that of children,
although the standard deviation of the forecast declines somewhat
according as this costratio rises." It is also concluded that the
reliability of forecasting total dependency is largely determined by
that of youth dependency. Because of the difficulties inherent in
forecasting future births, the author concludes that long-term
forecasts of trends in dependency ratios are highly
speculative.

The relationship between economic
and demographic factors in seventeenth and eighteenth century France is
examined using multilevel analysis of both short- and long-term trends
up to 30 years. "A total lack of correlation between economy and
demography is revealed for short-term and cyclical
observations...whereas a definite correlation is seen to exist between
the long-term trends observed for prices and for fertility. A
description of these two types of trend is undertaken in order to
determine the influences mutually exerted. This reveals the fairly
strongly endogenous nature of demography, which is important in
explaining the long-term trend for prices."

by Advent Books, New York, N.Y. In Eng.
"This book analyses the
process of stagnation in the peasant economy of Bangladesh under heavy
population pressure. The stagnation in the Bangladesh rural economy
takes place due to weak demographic response of rural households in the
face of increasing population pressure, and peasants' inability to
bring about technological changes in agriculture. The rate of
population growth in Bangladesh appears to be determined by various
socio-economic factors which are beyond the control of individual
households."
It is also found that "while population growth appears
as an autonomous factor and often provides stimulus to the growth of
output through agricultural changes, its total effect has been
insignificant. This has been mainly due to the negative effects of
population growth on the agrarian structure and rural factor markets as
well as the prolonged neglect of the government in introducing
institutional and technological changes in
agriculture."

on basic foodstuffs to satisfy a growing population and increased per
capita demand for food or increasing output of export agricultural
commodities in order to earn the necessary foreign exchange for imports
and development."

pressures per se, are the primary causes of agrarian development
problems, and that resettlement schemes that do not consider such
relations are an inadequate solution to development
problems.

status of British mothers in the work force since World War II. The
author finds that "an increasing majority of British women combine
motherhood and paid work....Women's employment has adapted to their
domestic role, but the labour market has also affected demographic
behaviour, notably birth timing. Postponement of entry into motherhood
during the 1970s by the increasing proportion of young women with
qualifications has prolonged the phase of the lifecycle when they are
free to work full time, and can be shown to be related to the
exceptionally favourable female labour market at the time. Evidence
presented on social class differentials in employment and fertility
trends has implications for increasing social
inequality."
