Research Abstract |
In the pre-industrial era, there was a positive association between income and fertility across households within societies, but in the modern era, a clear association does not seem to exist, neither positive nor negative. Why the income-fertility relationship within societies changed over time is an unsolved puzzle in the history of economic growth. This study developed a growth model focusing on changes in public policy for children and offered an explanation for this puzzle.
