Summary, etc. | This study, reprinted from the seventh edition of the World Bank's annual World Development Report, examines population change in developing countries and its links with economic development. The study shows why continuing rapid population growth on an ever larger base is likely to mean a lower quality of life for millions of people. It concludes that in some countries development may not be possible at all unless slower population growth can be achieved soon, before higher real incomes would bring fertility down spontaneously.<br/>The study outlines public policies to reduce fertility that are humane and affordable and that complement other development efforts, placing special emphasis on education for women and increased family planning services. The successful experience of many countries in implementing population policy, particularly in the past decade, shows how much can be accomplished and how quickly.<br/>The text of Population Change and Economic Development is enriched with a Population Data Supplement; numerous multicolor maps and graphics, tables, and case studies treating issues in population change; and a statistical appendix. |
