Study Notes
Demographic Transition Model and Global Population Trends
- Demographic Transition Model is based on historical trends of birth and death rates
- The model predicts population growth stages through changes in birth and death rates
- Stage 1: High stationary with high birth and death rates, leading to constant population size
- Stage 2: Early expanding with declining death rates and high birth rates, causing rapid population growth
- Stage 3: Late expanding with decreasing birth rates but continued population growth at a lower rate
- Stage 4: Low stationary with low birth and death rates, stabilizing population size
- Stage 5: Declining with fertility rates falling significantly below replacement level and a greater elderly population
- Developed countries are in the 4th or 5th stage, while developing countries are in the 3rd stage
- Falling fertility rates and increasing life expectancy are leading to an ageing world population
- Regional differences contribute to variations in population ageing
- Population ageing leads to increases in dependency ratios
- Data sources include the United Nations, Department of Economic and Social Affairs, and Population Division reports
