First paragraph
the term demographic transition is used to describe the transition from high birth rates and death rates to low birth and death rates that occurs as part of the economic development of a country from a pre-industrial to an industrialized economy. Usually it is described through the "Demographic Transition Model" that describes the population changes over time.
replace this clunky def with something better someone!
Role of contraception
In developing countries today access to contraceptives to prevent AIDS
Dont know if this is such an "important factor" in stage two as the article boldly asserts. Anyone know?? I thought data on the sucess or otherwise of AIDS prevention through contraception is unclear at best yet alone the correlation it has on econ development . Suggest this is deleted.
Economic burden of oldies
The large group born during stage two ages creates an economic burden on the shrinking working population
Not happy with the use of the word "burden", but im no economist so I dont want to change anything! The problem is institutional not a resource one ie the ratio of healthy working years to disabled years has not necessarily changed. Thanks for the input!
The demographic transition process
For the each stage of demographic process which is not closely related to significant economy evolution events,such as industrial revolution,Information and automation revolution.These events deeply influence the demographic transition process. Thanks for the input.
