Demographic study and the idea of a "population" was developed and
modified over the course of the twentieth century, mirroring the
political, social, and cultural situations and aspirations of
different societies. This growing field adapted itself to specific
policy concerns and was therefore never apolitical, despite the
protestations of practitioners that demography was "natural."
Demographics were transformed into public policies that shaped
family planning, population growth, medical practice, and
environmental conservation. While covering a variety of regions and
time periods, the essays in this book share an interest in the
transnational dynamics of emerging demographic discourses and
practices. Together, they present a global picture of the history
of demographic knowledge.
