  • Title: [Considerations concerning the theory of the demographic revolution. Its development in Cuba].
    Author: Hernandez Castellon R.
    Journal: Rev Cuhana Adm Salud; 1983; 9(4):362-84. PubMed ID: 12279811.
    Abstract:
    A review of the world's literature on the demographic transition is presented. The author, in his analysis of the non-Marxist literature, suggests that considerable efforts have been made to update demographic transition theory in order to take into account recent demographic trends in developing countries. On the other hand, the Marxist literature is divided into studies in which attempts are made to develop general demographic theories and those in which the value of such theories is questioned. The paper concludes with a description of the demographic transition process as it has been experienced in Cuba, and it is noted that a major feature of this process has been a general trend toward a reduction in demographic differentials.
