Fertility transition
Author: United NationsThe importance of fertility transition in Asia begins with the magnitude of its influence on the world population growth. Asia constituted 58.2 per cent of the world’s population in 1985. Because it is likely to remain in excess of 55 per cent well into the first quarter of the next century, Asia will continue to dominate the global population phenomena and its growth. In particular, China and India have a dominant role in influencing the Asian demographic situation, because together they comprise the majority of the region’s total population.
