Generation

The demographic transition model describes how populations shift from high birth and death rates to low birth and death rates as countries develop economically. It typically consists of four or five stages, beginning with pre-industrial societies experiencing high mortality and fertility, transitioning through a period where death rates fall before birth rates (causing rapid population growth), and eventually reaching low mortality and fertility in developed nations. **Key formula: Population Growth Rate = (Birth Rate - Death Rate) + Net Migration Rate** This model helps explain why developing countries often experience population booms during industrialization, while developed countries see slower or negative population growth.
