Global Population – History, Geopolitics, and Life on Earth de Alison Bashford

Global Population – History, Geopolitics, and Life on Earth: Columbia Studies in International and Global History

Autor Alison Bashford
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 noi 2016
Global Population traces the idea of a world population problem as it evolved from the 1920s through the 1960s. The growth and distribution of the human population over the planet's surface came deeply to shape the characterization of "civilizations" with different standards of living. It forged the very ideas of development, demographically defined three worlds, and, for some, an aspirational "one world."
