Study Notes

The population issue refers to the imbalance between population and resources, with the population serving as both a productive and consuming force.
Imbalance between population and resources leads to problems such as poverty, unemployment, low services, and negative effects on foreign trade, state budget, and savings and investment rates.
Optimum population is reached when the number of people working with available resources produces the highest capital economic return, resulting in the highest standard of living and quality of life.
Overpopulation occurs when there are too many people relative to available resources, making it difficult to maintain an adequate standard of living.
Population imbalance also has reciprocal relationships with various issues including poverty, unemployment, and low level of services.
