"Population" by Harold Wright is a foundational exploration of demographic trends and economic theory as understood in the early twentieth century. This insightful work examines the complex relationship between population growth and the availability of resources, drawing heavily on the legacy of Malthusian thought while addressing the social and industrial shifts of the era.
Wright provides a comprehensive overview of how human populations expand and the subsequent impact on food supply, labor markets, and the general standard of living. By analyzing historical data and contemporary projections, the author delves into the ethical and practical challenges of population control and the role of the state in managing societal growth. The text serves as a critical bridge between classical political economy and modern social science, offering readers a clear perspective on the debates that shaped public policy following the First World War.
Ideal for students of economics, sociology, and history, "Population" remains a significant contribution to the study of human ecology. Its clear prose and rigorous analysis highlight the enduring relevance of demographic questions in understanding global development and social welfare.
