Welcome to the Program on the
Global Demography of Aging (PGDA) The Program on the Global Demography of Aging (PGDA), led by David E. Bloom, chair of the Department of Population and International Health at the Harvard School of Public Health, received funding from the National Institute on Aging at the National Institutes of Health to carry out research on important themes related to global aging and health, with an emphasis on issues in the developing world. A key overarching theme focuses the expertise available at various schools at Harvard toward one of the pressing health questions of global aging, namely understanding the changing patterns of adult morbidity and mortality, including their measurements and causes, demographic and economic implications, and policies and programs for addressing and mitigating such implications. The output of the program is in the form of research seminars, working papers, publications, workshops and research proposals. The Program for the Global Demography of Aging provides support for research on demographic change and aging throughout the world, with a particular focus on developing countries. An important component of this research is the role of burden of disability and disease in aging, particularly the measurement of this burden, as well as analyzing its causes and consequences. PGDA supports existing program of research at Harvard University as well as encourages the development of new research and is a component of a wider university initiative on Global Health.

DEMOGRAPHY
Q: Birth rates are dropping all over the world. Isn't the "population bomb" really a dud?
Birth rates have dropped to nearly half of what they were in 1950: from an average of 5 offspring to 2.6. Our growth rate has also fallen significantly, as this chart from the US Census Bureau shows.
Annual population increase likewise has improved from a high of 87 million in 1989 to around 74 million in 2005.
However, before we celebrate a fizzle of our population explosion, there's one more chart one most often ignored.
Q: With birth rates, fertility rates, and growth rates all falling, how can our population keep on steadily rising?
Momentum. Although couples are creating fewer of us, there are more couples creating those new people, which makes more of us. For example, China has one of the lowest birth rates in the world, and yet their natural increase is 10 million per year.
This serves as an ominous warning. If cutting fertility rates in half hasn't stopped our increase, what will it take? How much better can we expect birth rates to get? Many regions have reached a plateau and aren't likely to go any lower unless conditions change. Campaigns to improve birth rates have succeeded somewhat and are worthy of additional support.
Q: If we only produce two children, doesn't that just replace ourselves?

The Global Demography Project
[click on the map for a larger version] The global demography project is an effort to generate consistent, spatially referenced global population data sets for global and regional environmental analysis, demographic research, etc. This project has been supported by the Consortium for International Earth Science Information Network (CIESIN) , the Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) and NCGIA. Output from the first stage of the project includes a set of raster data sets of population density and total population figures. For each, a smoothed and an unsmoothed version exists. The smoothed images were produced using Waldo Tobler's pycnophylactic interpolation . These images have a resolution of 5 minutes and are based on source population and boundary data for more than 15,000 administrative units. The project is described in detail in NCGIA Technical Report 95-6 "The Global Demography Project" by Waldo Tobler, Uwe Deichmann, Jon Gottsegen, and Kelly Maloy. The full report including maps and illustrations can be obtained from NCGIA Publications

Watch on the West
Four Surprises in Global Demography
By Nicholas Eberstadt Volume 5, Number 5
July 2004 Nicholas Eberstadt is the Henry Wendt Chair in Political Economy at the American Enterprise Institute (AEI) in Washington. This piece is based on an article that will appear in the Fall 2004 issue of Orbis
Sustained reductions in family size in the context of peace and social progress-were first witnessed in late eighteenth- century Europe. In the first half of the twentieth century, European countries unveiled another demographic first: non- catastrophic sub-replacement fertility. During the interwar period, a number of European states reported fertility patterns that, if continued, would lead to an eventual stabilization and indefinite population decline thereafter, absent offsetting immigration. These low fertility regimens were entirely voluntary: heretofore, such low birth Rates had virtually always been attended by war, pestilence, famine, or disaster. Europe experienced a baby boom after World War II, but sub-replacement fertility has now returned with a vengeance. Apart from Mongolia, according to the Census Bureau, all of East Asia is sub-replacement, as are Thailand and Burma in Southeast Asia, Kazakstan and Sri Lanka in South-Central Asia, many Caribbean societies, and most South American countries.

The Jewish Stake in America's
Changing Demography
Reconsidering a Misguided Immigration Policy
October 2001 B y Stephen Steinlight Download the .pdf version Preface: Challenging A Crumbling Consensus
Most of all, my conversion is the consequence of my contact over the years with Mark Krikorian, Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies, and the Center's work. We dialogued and formally debated on several occasions, and I moderated public forums in which Mark took part. If dialogue has any meaning, if speakers actually listen to each other rather than close their ears and merely wait impatiently to say their say, then the possibility that one can change as a result of what one hears must be acknowledged. The Socratic method was alive and well in our exchanges, and I did. But, as I've noted, the change came slowly, the process recalling not St. Paul on the road to Damascus but the Latin proverb Stillicidi casus lapidem cavat , "constant dripping hollows out a stone." My thought was also significantly influenced by a superb conference on immigration, "Thy People Shall Be My People: Immigration and Citizenship in America," sponsored by the Robert R. McCormick Tribune Foundation in July of 2000. Perhaps its principal contribution to challenging my point of view was having the opportunity to listen to my own side's thesis articulated by those willing to take it to its extreme, and their reductio ad absurdum made plain the very great dangers within it.
