Demography

Abstract Demography is a social science, but especially is a political science. One of its most common uses is to arouse fears, revealing a future disaster that can only be avoided if undertaken with urgency determined demographic policies. I mentioned here the Decline of the West Oswald Spengler, an outstanding example of how demography was used, a century ago, to predict the decline and implosion of all Western civilization by the falling birth rate, aging and outside threat. The article which

Demography 's classic-transition theory furthers the modernization narrative that is central to this argument. The theory presents a three-phase timeline to explain the reproductive history of all nations. Countries begin in the pre-transition phase where high mortality and high birth rates create slow population growth, which is considered a traditional society. The second phase is the transition where slowing mortality rates and high birth rates produce raid population growth. During this stage

Showing Demography through Human Populations Both Pre- and Post-1950 OR I See Trends in Dead People I. Purpose: Is there a correlation between age of death before 1950 and after 1950 due to underlying factors? Between both sexes before and after 1950 from discriminating factors? What types of factors, and why? II. Hypotheses Within death rates and the factors that affect them, I hypothesize that death rates of both males and females will be higher in the younger populations before 1950

* Define demographic transition. * Describe the 4 phases of demographic transition, including if the population is stable, growing, or declining in each. · * According to demographers, what factors lead to a decline in the crude birth rates (CBR) and crude death rates (CDR) in the epidemiologic and fertility phases of the demographic transition? · * Briefly describe three living conditions and/or environmental impacts in developed countries that have reached phase IV, and contrast

Demography of aging In 2017, the world population is at 7.5 billion people. China is the most populated country in whole world. It has “1.379 billion” (Google) people making it the largest populated country. China is also the most largest aging population making it have a high life expectancy and the high accelerating aging rate in the world (Zheng, 2012). China has advanced with technology and also with age. Only “three decades ago, only 5 percent of the populations was over 65; today, 123 million

definitions of demography. Its analysis is often used to address a wide variety of scientific and policy questions. Using your own words, please define what is demography, and why is demography relevant to other disciplines (e.g. business, human resources, marketing, planning and politics)? In its most general and widespread understanding, demography is known as the study of human populations, in particular the size, progression, as well as its structure (McFalls, 2007). Demography itself is not

Mark Collard’s lecture was about risk, demography, and technological evolution in non-industrial populations and he discussed the evolution of tool use among a variety of groups of hunter-gatherers and food-producing communities. Collard states that the number and complexity of tools varies greatly among populations and he focuses on why this variation exists. He starts off by discussing and analyzing toolkit variation in both hunter-gatherer and farming societies and then moves on to discuss overall

Every aspect on demography comes into play when combined into unison from the perspective of a person’s environment. Factors such as age, ethnicity, gender and class are highly important in shaping a person’s environment, where a different combination is met with a distinct response, thus placing great emphasis on the understanding of intersectionality through the lens of the sociological imagination. Through social ecology, intersectionality and the sociological imagination intertwines together
