Population and History: The Demographic Origins of the Modern Philippines by Daniel F. Doeppers and Peter Xenos
Share this Product
'Throughout the nineteenth century the Philippines was, in demographic terms, both an anomaly and a paradox. Compared to China and India, the region's small population and relatively low human densities were anomalous. The rapid rise in population from the late eighteenth century to the mid-1870s is another surprise, an apparent paradox countering both precedent and demographic theory. This volume of essays is thus a reconnaissance. Its long-range goal is a comprehensive demographic history of the Philippines as a subject intertwined with the study of social and economic change across the archipelago.'
