SUMMARY:Panel Discussion\, The Unrealized Horrors of Population Explosion
DESCRIPTION:Moderator: Dr. S. Philip Morgan\nPanelists\nDr. Yong Cai: CPC Faculty Fellow (Sociology)\nDr. Peter Coclanis: CPC Faculty Fellow (History)\nDr. Sian Curtis: CPC Faculty Fellow (Maternal & Child Health)\nDr. Paul Leslie: CPC Faculty Fellow (Anthropology) \nRapid population growth in the 1950s\, 60s and 70s raised concern about a population explosion with repercussions for the environment\, resource depletion and political stability.  One could argue that the “population bomb” (Ehrlich\, 1968) has been diffused – global population growth has slowed and many predict its end in the next half-century.  Concern about population growth spawned a “social movement” to curb fertility; a few at the time called this hysteria and an overreaction. In retrospect more are asking this question\, as the New York Times (http://tiny.cc/zlb62x) did this summer.  In his 2011 PAA Presidential address\, David Lam raised similar questions\, as did a cover story in The Economist  (October\, 2009).  What do we think? \nLam\, D. (2011). How the world survived the population bomb: Lessons from 50 years of extraordinary demographic history. Demography\, 48(4)\, 1231-1262.
