Experience on the law of population
19.99 €

Many people these days are asking questions regarding the existence of humanity in the future. Is there a limit to the number of people? How can (and should) that number be regulated? Under what conditions could a world famine occur? How can we avoid a global catastrophe in case of overpopulation of the planet? But these questions did not arise today - they occupied the minds of scientists and philosophers both 100 and 200 years ago. Thomas Malthus was one of the first to formalize his concerns about this issue in his work "Experience on the Law of Population" (1798). In this book, the reader will find the scientist-economist's reflections on possible uncontrolled population growth, as well as assumptions about the consequences of such a situation. Moreover, we have the opportunity to trace the origins of modern theories about population back to the late 18th century.
