Chapter 2: Population Part 1 Mr. Guge, Instructor Fall 2012 Distribution-geographers are concerned about the arrangement of features on the earth?s surface. 3 main properties of distribution are: Density-the frequency that something occurs in a given space. Concentration-changes in distribution-how close together-dispersed or clustered. Pattern-the arrangement of the distribution of features in a given space. 2 Density is an important issue in Population studies-the number of people per square mile in a country might tell you something about living conditions and living standards. Concentration-the population used to be clustered or concentrated in the northeast, but it is becoming more dispersed as many people move to the West, Southwest or South.

Italian Demographic Transition

Italy is currently in Stage Four of the Demographic Transition Model. They currently have a -0.1 Rate of Natural Increase. This is caused by many contributing factors: a low CBR and a higher CDR (due to the majority of the population being older). Paired with emigration, the country is reducing its population growth. High Crude Death Rates and even higher CBR, creating gradual population growth, characterized Italy’s stage 1. The Industrial Revolution encouraged progression into the next stage. In the mid-nineteenth century, sanitation and new medicines caused Italy’s CDR to drop and NIR to rise. After the population peaked, it began to even out, and eventually decreased to create Stage Four.

THE DEMOGRAPHIC TRANSITION ?Keith Montgomery The "Demographic Transition" is a model that describes population change over time. It is based on an interpretation begun in 1929 by the American demographer Warren Thompson, of the observed changes, or transitions, in birth and death rates in industrialized societies over the past two hundred years or so. By "model" we mean that it is an idealized, composite picture of population change in these countries. The model is a generalization that applies to these countries as a group and may not accurately describe all individual cases. Whether or not it applies to less developed societies today remains to be seen.

The demographic transition model seeks to explain the transformation of countries from having high birth and death rates to low birth and death rates. In developed countries this transition began in the eighteenth century and continues today. Less developed countries began the transition later and are still in the midst of earlier stages of the model. CBR & CDR
