A close look at population, policy, and prosperity through the lens of a foundational economic argument. This edition gathers additions to an influential essay on population, exploring how birth, death, and marriage rates shape nations, eras, and the balance between subsistence and progress. It draws on historical data from France around the revolution and discusses how social conditions, wages, and public policy affect demographic trends.

Readers will encounter careful analysis of how government actions, price changes, and human behavior interact to influence population growth. The material surveys arguments about famine, land use, and the incentives that drive families and economies, offering a disciplined view of the forces that limit or expand population in society.

How demographic rates interact with economic conditions across time and places.

Effects of policy instruments on capital allocation and food supply, including export practices and agriculture.

Connections between wages, living conditions, and family decisions in shaping population trends.

Debates on checks to population, including moral restraint and prudential limits, within a historical context.

Ideal for readers of economic history, political economy, and classic population theory, as they consider how early theories still inform understanding of population and policy today.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book challenges prevailing assumptions on poverty, analyzing the consequences of the principle of population, a driving force in human history. The author argues that societies tend toward a balance of population and resources, with the tendency for populations to grow faster than resources resulting in misery and poverty when unchecked. Governments often attempt to rectify this imbalance with poor laws that provide welfare, but these efforts often prove inadequate and sometimes exacerbate the problem by encouraging population growth beyond the carrying capacity of the environment. The insights presented challenge widely-held beliefs about population control and the role of government in alleviating poverty, offering a nuanced perspective on a subject of vital importance to society. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
