Abstract
The author explores the demographic impact of famine in India and Bangladesh since the 1940s. Consideration is given to fertility decline and mortality increase, and to the factors that contribute to these trends. It is noted that the prevalence of disease, as well as migration, rainfall, and relief aid all affect mortality and fertility during and after times of famine. Famine mortality differentials are also studied by age and sex. Problems with famine-related data sources are briefly discussed. (SUMMARY IN FRE AND SPA)
