  3. Demographic Transitions Model… • is a series of line graphs that illustrate: • how population changes over time… • due to changing death rates… • and changing birth rates… • which in turn are affected by level of development or industrialization. The level of development of a country will determine certain conditions or services that affect both death rate and birth rate and consequently population growth.

  4. Stage 1 – Pre-Modern • Steady population • Characterized by a balance between birth rates and death rates. • Death rates and Birth rates are comparably HIGH. • Underdeveloped country with poor education and services.

  5. Stage 2 – Urbanization / Industrialization • Characterized by a DECLINE in death rates. • Birth rates rather steady at high rates or even rising. • Rise in Population • Occurs in lesser developed and developing nations • There is enough health care and nutrition TO decrease death rates but birth rates are still high.

  6. Stage 3 – Mature Industrial • Death ratesare stabilized. • Birth rates start to decline. • Rise in Population • BUT Population moving towards stability. • Occurs in developing countries and those that have recently become developed nations.

  7. Stage 4 – Post Industrial • Death ratesare stabilized at lower levels. • Birth rates are stabilized at lower levels. • Stabilized Population. • Population age structure is generally older. • Developed nations such as Canada, Sweden, U.S etc.
