Book Development and Demographic Change in Taiwan

Download or read book Development and Demographic Change in Taiwan written by Roger Mark Selya and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2004 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes and analyzes the demographic changes that took place in Taiwan between 1945 and 1995. It uses an interdisciplinary methodology so that different approaches to demographic change can be compared and contrasted. It attempts to evaluate Taiwan's experience so that lessons for the Third World can be extracted. The content and presentation of the material are deliberately designed to replicate the 1954 work of Barclay, Demographic Change and Colonial Development in Taiwan. As such the book seeks to provide the reasons that economic development without demographic change took place under the Japanese while development with demographic change took place under the Chinese. The volume is richly illustrated with some 82 original maps and graphs.

Book Population Matters

Download or read book Population Matters written by Nancy Birdsall and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2001-08-30 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effect of demography on economic performance has been the subject of intense debate in economics for nearly two centuries. In recent years opinion has swung between the Malthusian views of Coale and Hoover, and the cornucopian views of Julian Simon. Unfortunately, until recently, data were too weak and analytical models too limited to provide clear insights into the relationship. As a result, economists as a group have not been clear or conclusive. This volume, which is based on a collection of papers that heavily rely on data from the 1980s and 1990s and on new analytical approaches, sheds important new light on demographic—economic relationships, and it provides clearer policy conclusions than any recent work on the subject. In particular, evidence from developing countries throughout the world shows a pattern in recent decades that was not evident earlier: countries with higher rates of population growth have tended to see less economic growth. An analysis of the role of demography in the "Asian economic miracle" strongly suggests that changes in age structures resulting from declining fertility create a one-time "demographic gift" or window of opportunity, when the working age population has relatively few dependants, of either young or old age, to support. Countries which recognize and seize on this opportunity can, as the Asian tigers did, realize healthy bursts in economic output. But such results are by no means assured: only for countries with otherwise sound economic policies will the window of opportunity yield such dramatic results. Finally, several of the studies demonstrate the likelihood of a causal relationship between high fertility and poverty. While the direction of causality is not always clear and very likely is reciprocal (poverty contributes to high fertility and high fertility reinforces poverty), the studies support the view that lower fertility at the country level helps create a path out of poverty for many families. Population Matters represents an important further step in our understanding of the contribution of population change to economic performance. As such, it will be a useful volume for policymakers both in developing countries and in international development agencies.

Book The Demographic Dividend

Download or read book The Demographic Dividend written by David Bloom and published by Rand Corporation. This book was released on 2003-02-13 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is long-standing debate on how population growth affects national economies. A new report from Population Matters examines the history of this debate and synthesizes current research on the topic. The authors, led by Harvard economist David Bloom, conclude that population age structure, more than size or growth per se, affects economic development, and that reducing high fertility can create opportunities for economic growth if the right kinds of educational, health, and labor-market policies are in place. The report also examines specific regions of the world and how their differing policy environments have affected the relationship between population change and economic development.

Book Population Policies and Economic Development

Download or read book Population Policies and Economic Development written by World Bank and published by Johns Hopkins University Press. This book was released on 1974 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides information on world population growth; its impact on efforts to combat poverty and improve standards of living; its effects on the availability of food and other natural resources; and its policy implications for governments and the international community. The study's main focus is on the relationship between population growth and economic development - and on government policies required to bring about a reduction in fertility. Its central conclusion is that high rates of population growth and the massive poverty which burdens most of the developing world, despite remarkable economic growth in the aggregate, are mutually reinforcing, resulting in a vicious circle which can be broken only by a direct and simultaneous attack on both fronts. The problem is how to mount such an attack effectively, and to do so in time to forestall the most serious consequences implict in the data this report contains. That question is the object of a series of interrelated studies, of which this is one, that are being carried out by the World Bank and associated institutions in an effort to clarify the options available to policy-makers and to stimulate necessary additional research on the part of others.

Book Economic Growth in Theory and Practice

Download or read book Economic Growth in Theory and Practice written by R. Sundrum and published by Springer. This book was released on 1990-08-06 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book describes the practical process of economic growth both in developed and less developed countries, and presents a unified theory of growth from the earliest stages to the most advanced. Central to the theory is the structural transformation which is associated with the growth process. This structural transformation is used to explain the logistic pattern that economic growth has followed in the real world. Within this logistic pattern, growth performance is explained both in terms of supply factors and demand factors, and the interaction between them. The influence of inflation and income distribution on economic growth is also discussed.
