DEMOGRAPHIC TRANSITION

KEY FACTORS

• Crude Birth Rate (CBR)
• Crude Death Rate (CDR)
• Life Expectancy
• Fertility Rate
• Infant Mortality Rate

STAGE 1: PRE-MODERN

• Pre-civilization
• Hunter/Gatherers
• Environment is a large influence
• CBR and CDR: very high and sporadic
• Fertility Rate: high

STAGE 1: PRE-MODERN

• Infant Morality Rate: high
• Life Expectancy: low
• Total Population: low
• no states are currently in stage 1

STAGE 2: URBANIZING-INDUSTRIALIZING

• First Settlements
• Beginning of Agriculture
• Industrialization
• Technological Increases
• Mostly Rural/Urbanization Growing

STAGE 2: URBANIZING-INDUSTRIALIZING

• CBR: remains high, begins to stabilize
• CDR: plummets
• Life Expectancy: longer
• Infant Mortality Rate: decreasing
• Fertility Rate: remains high

STAGE 3: MATURE INDUSTRIAL

• Agriculture beginning too decline
• Job Specialization Increases
• Mostly Urban/Less Rural
• Increased Medical Technology
• Education Increases

STAGE 3: MATURE INDUSTRIAL

• CDR: declines, less rapid
• CBR: plummets to meet CDR
• Fertility Rate: plummets
• Life Expectancy: longer
• Cultural Lag: gap between CBR and CDR

STAGE 4: POST INDUSTRIAL

• Very little agriculture
• Less Manual Labor and Industry/More Service Jobs
• Nearly all urban
• Newest/Best Technology
• CDR and CBR: stabilize, about equal, low

STAGE 4: POST INDUSTRIAL

• Fertility Rates: very low
• Life Expectancy: even longer
• Total Population Growth: fairly stable, low growth, high level

CAUSE INCREASE IN TOTAL POPULATION

• Urbanization
• Industrialization
• Education
• Healthcare
• Technology

CAUSE DECREASE IN TOTAL POPULATION

• Infant Mortality
• CBR
