Politics and Population Control

Angebote / Angebote:

What is population history about? It's about birth rates, migration, and economies. It's about families, women, and babies. It is about agricultural production, military conflict, colonies, and race. In short, population history is the human story. This book shows that population issues--numbers of people, how to feed them, their employment, racial makeup, intelligence, health, sexual behavior, and reproduction--have concerned authorities for centuries. The primary documents in this volume illustrate those concerns from the mid-18th century to the present. Provided is background information on each document and coverage of a variety of population perspectives.
