Fertility Decline and Increasing Gender Imbalance in India, Including a Possible South Indian Turnaround

Title:Fertility Decline and Increasing Gender Imbalance in India, Including a Possible South Indian Turnaround
Author:Alaka Malwade Basu
Publication:Development and Change / Blackwell Publishers
Enumeration:Volume 30, Number 2, April 1999
Abstract:Birth rates in India have been in a definite decline since about 1985. However, contrary to our assumption that fertility declines in this region hinge on improvements in the status of women, declining fertility seems to be going hand in hand with worsening population sex ratios.
