Comparative Population History of Eastern Asia

Comparative Population History of Eastern Asia by Toru Suzuki
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2024 | 214 Pages | ISBN : 9819993660 | 14.4 MB

This book compares the population history of Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and China to understand such emergent changes as extremely low fertility in Korea and Taiwan, compressed urbanization and a massive diaspora from Korea, early population aging relative to economic development in China, and changing patterns of cross-border migration in the region. After discussing the origin of each ethnic group, premodern population changes are examined by reviewing historical demographic studies including those written in local languages. A new population estimation for premodern Korea is also presented.
