Population Trends in New Jersey

Autor James W. Hughes, David Listokin
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 13 ian 2022 – vârsta ani
To fully understand New Jersey in the 2020s and beyond, it is crucial to understand its ever-changing population. This book examines the twenty-first century demographic trends that are reshaping the state now and will continue to do so in the future. But trend analysis requires a deep historical context. Present-day New Jersey is the result of a long demographic and economic journey that has taken place over centuries, constantly influenced by national and global forces. This book provides a detailed examination of this journey.  The result is present-day New Jersey.
 
The authors also highlight key trends that will continue to transform the state: domestic migration out of the state and immigration into it; increasing diversity; slower overall population growth; contracting fertility; the household revolution and changing living arrangements; generational disruptions; and suburbanization versus re-urbanization. All of these factors help place in context the result of the 2020 decennial U.S. Census.

While the book focuses on New Jersey, the Garden State is a template of demographic, economic, social, and other forces characterizing the United States in the twenty-first century.

Recenzii

"This book is an eye-opener into the powerful economic and demographic forces that are transforming the advanced world and its cities. Drawing upon more than a century of research at the Rutgers Center for Urban Policy Research, Jim Hughes and David Listokin provide a deep dive into way these forces have shaped and reshaped New Jersey. From great battles of Colonial times to the Industrial Revolution and the world-changing inventions of Thomas Edison to mass suburbanization, deindustrialization, immigration, urban decline and the remaking of its older cities, and its signature contributions to popular culture from Frank Sinatra to Bruce Springsteen, and much more, this book shows how New Jersey is a great bellwether of change for America and the world."
