Definition
As societies undergo the shift from rural agricultural economies to urban industrialized ones, population processes follow a predictable course of change.
During the period of transition, death rates first begin to decrease in response to improvements in living conditions and health care, but there is a lag time during which fertility remains high. This is because the factors favoring large family sizes, such as expectations for high mortality among children, are slow to change. This results in elevated population growth rates, characteristic of many developing countries today and the reason that population growth is sometimes used to define underdevelopment. Over time, fertility decreases in response to falling mortality, producing the low growth rates characteristic of industrialized nations. |
