Demographic Transition Model
Historically, nations that have gone through similar processes of economic development have experienced similar patterns of population growth. Scientists who studied the population growth patterns of European countries in the early 1900s described a four-phase process they referred to as a demographic transition. The theory of demographic transition says that as a country moves from a subsistence economy to industrialization and increased affluence, it undergoes a predictable shift in population growth. The theory helps us to understand the way some come countries will influence the environment as they undergo growth and development (Friedland, et al. 2012).
