أصبح علم السكان أو الديموغرافيا من الموضوعات المحورية في مجال الدراسة الاجتماعية سواء في مرحلة الليسانس أو الدراسات العليا حيث يتناول بالدراسة والبحث الظاهرة السكانية من حيث النمو ومكوناته والتوزيع وملامحه والتركيب وعناصره وذلك أملاً في الوصل إلى فهم دقيق لمكونات هذه الظاهرة وتقويم نتائجها المتعددة في الزمان والمكان. والمؤلف إذ يقدم هذا الكتاب تحت عنوان “دراسات في علم السكان” لطلاب قسم الاجتماع فقد اقتبسه من كتاب مفصل له عن جغرافية السكان سبق أن أصدره وتركز اهتمامه فيما اقتبسه على الجوانب الديمقوغرافية كالخصوبة والوفيات والنمو الطبيعي والهجرة الداخلية والتركيب السكاني عمرياً ونوعياً واقتصادياً ثم بتحليل موجز للعلاقة بين السكان والموارد وختم الكتاب بدراسة مبسطة عن بعض النظريات السكانية الهامة. ولعل أبرز ما يميز هذه الطبعة التي بين أيدينا من هذا الكتاب عن سابقاتها أنها حدثت البيانات واقتصرت في التطبيقات الديموغرافية على نماذج مختارة عبر متن الكتاب دون الاقتصار على دولة واحدة أو إقليم واحد، كذلك تم اختصار بعض الفصول اختصاراً لا يخل بمحتواها العلمي أو بنائها المنهجي.

كتاب جغرافية السكان أسس وتطبيقات pdf تأليف د. فتحى محمد أبو عيانة، يحمل هذا الكتاب في ثنايا تغيرا جذريا في البناء والمحتوى والعرض، فالسكان قد أصبحوا يمثلون محور كثير من الدراسات الاجتماعية والانسانية بل أصبح الكثير من مشكلات الحياة المعاصرة في العالم شرقه وغربه يرتبط ارتباطا مباشرا أو غير مباشرا بالكتلة البشرية التي يموج بها هذا العالم، وقد شهدت المكتبة السكانية تدفق سيل من الكتابات والبحوث في عقد الثمانينات كان من الضروري أن يعكسها هذا الكتاب.

The volume takes four key themes related to ageing – the experience of old age; intergenerational relations; economics of and social policy for ageing; longevity and the culture of ageing – and examines how these issues are emerging in different regions of Asia, specifically, the former Soviet Union, South Asia, China, Japan and South-East Asia. In placing these Asian cases studies in the broader context of debates about, and policies on, ageing more generally, it brings them into the mainstream of comparative research on ageing from which they have been too often excluded. As the studies show, the relationship between ageing and poverty is a complex one and often reflects policy towards the aged rather than that the aged themselves are unproductive and dependent. Ageing, moreover, can no longer be considered as simply a national question; we also need to consider the implications of its global dimension in terms of issues such as human rights and quality of life.

This book provides multinational evidence on active and healthy ageing. It generates authoritative new knowledge for mutual learning and policymaking in addressing challenges linked with population ageing. The authors discuss how to achieve better active ageing outcomes through appropriate policies including addressing life course determinants of active and healthy ageing. The chapters are distinctive in their focus on quantitative analysis of active and healthy ageing based on a first-of-its-kind composite measure, the Active Ageing Index developed during the 2012 European Year for Active Ageing and Solidarity between Generations. Contributors include researchers, civil service representatives, policymakers and other stakeholders from national, regional and European organisations. This edited volume provides a multidisciplinary resource for academics and policy makers in various areas of the social sciences, especially those studying population ageing and its consequences, economists, sociologists, social policy analysts and public health experts.

Predicting the shape of our future populations is vital for installing the infrastructure, welfare, and provisions necessary for society to survive. There are many opportunities and challenges that will come with the changes in our populations over the 21st century. In this new addition to the 21st Century Challenges series, Sarah Harper works to dispel myths such as the fear of unstoppable global growth resulting in a population explosion, or that climate change will lead to the mass movement of environmental refugees; and instead considers the future shape of our populations in light of demographic trends in fertility, mortality, and migration, and their national and global impact. How Population Change Will Transform Our World looks at population trends by region to highlight the key issues facing us in the coming decades, including the demographic inertia in Europe, demographic dividend in Asia, high fertility and mortality in Africa, the youth bulge in the Middle East, and the balancing act of migration in the Americas. Harper concludes with an analysis of global challenges we must plan for such as the impact of climate change and urbanization, and the difficulty of feeding 10 billion people, and considers ways in which we can prepare for, and mitigate against, these challenges.

This comprehensive handbook provides an overview and update of the issues, theories, processes, and applications of the social science of population studies. The volume’s 30 chapters cover the full range of conceptual, empirical, disciplinary, and applied approaches to the study of demographic phenomena.This book is the first effort to assess the entire field since Hauser and Duncan’s 1959 classic, The Study of Population. The Handbook of Population is organized for classroom as well as reference use. It is divided into four sections Population Structure, Population Processes, Population and the Social Sciences, and Applied Demography and includes both an Introduction and an Epilogue by the editors. Part I, Population Structure, contains chapters on population size and growth, age and sex composition, marriage and family structure, and demographic analyses of gender, aging, race and ethnicity, and the labor force. Part II is focused on population processes, and includes chapters on fertility, infant and adult mortality, internal and international migration, and the demography of social stratification. Part III reflects the growing multidisciplinary nature of demography. Chapters are devoted to sociological, anthropological, economic, historical, ecological, mathematical, and political demography, to biodemography, and to demographic perspectives on organizations and corporations as well as on urban and spatial phenomena. Finally, Part IV recognizes the varied practical applications of demographic perspectives and data to national and global issues and problems. Its chapters cover population and development, population and environment, fertility planning, population distribution planning, small area and business demography, health demography, and population policy. The chapter authors are among the leading contributors to demographic scholarship over the past four decades. They represent a variety of disciplines and theoretical perspectives as well as interests in both basic and applied research.
