As economic development increases, populationchanges in different ways.
-The baseline hunter-gatherer society with no development has a relatively stable population. High birthrate, high death rate.-The development of agriculture and permanent settlement leads to a continued birth rate, but lower death rate. Therefore, populationgrowth, and more people to do more work.-Further developments into allmanner of industries leads to healthcare, more food, more money in general. Still, though, nothing to hold back the birthrate. Therefore, fast population growth. This is where much the developing world is today, but they arestuckin this phase with no imminent way to get out.
-Today's developed countries went on to invest in physical infrastructure and education, take up equality for women, careers for women, and contraceptives. History shows that when women can control their fertility, they choose smaller families. As careers become centred on services, and as more women chooseto put off child bearing, the birth ratedrops while deaths remain low. Therefore, populationstagnation. And yet, with more people working in higher
-value careers (thanksto infrastructure and education), economicgrowth continues.
-The next phase, which some countries have begunto experience, is population decline. It's the natural trend that emerges from the previous phase. This is a problem because these populations are not distributed evenly by age group. From an economic perspective, there areway too many old people who will be consuming resources for decades to come without producing anything. At the same time, there are fewer young people being born to pick up the slack in productivity. Economic growth is still possible.
