Abstract

SummaryTwo different projections of world population for the years 1980 and 2000, viz. the United Nations Medium Variant Projection and Current Fertility Projection, are considered. Both show large increases in world population. When the more developed regions and the less developed regions are considered separately, the major part of the growth is seen to be concentrated in the less developed regions.The changes in total population expected in the next 40 years (1960–2000) are seen to be very different from changes which have taken place in the last 40 years.
