Summary
Study of the relationship between social policy, economic growth and population dynamics in developing countries - presents a detailed econometrics analysis of the role of human resources development in growth during the past two decades and its contribution to the decline in fertility and mortality; discusses theoretical aspects of simulation models analysing effects of alternative policies on output and population; compares demographic projections with those produced recently by the UN and specialized agencies.
