Features: Against the backdrop of dramatic changes in the world and Chinese populations, this book discusses various population issues in China. The content covers the characteristics of China's population transition, population aging and the inverted pyramid society, population economic development and the deterioration of resources and environment, ethnic population and ethnic relations, the rise and fall of civilizations and population, globalization and China's population, as well as the evolution of population policies and population development strategies. Faced with the complex and multidimensional population issues in China today, the author explicitly advocates that solving China's population problems should adopt an approach of "simultaneous focus on quantity and structure" and "unity of quantity and structure."
