Birth Rates In China and the USA
A glance at the graph provided reveals some striking similarities between the Chinese and US
birth rates during the period from 1920 to 2000. It is evident that both nations saw considerable
fluctuations in fertility, with lows during the 1940s and highs during the 1950s.
Increasing from approximately 10 percent in 1920 to 15 percent in 1935, China’s birth rate then
plunged to a low of just 5 percent in the 1940s. This was followed by a period of exponential
growth, with fertility in the country reaching a peak of 20 percent in 1950. The latter half of the
century, however, brought a sustained decline in this figure.
The US birth rate, meanwhile, fluctuated at somewhere between 11 and 13 percent prior to 1940,
before dropping sharply to less than 5 percent in 1945. The following 5 years saw a rapid climb
in this rate, to somewhere in the vicinity of 15 percent in 1950, followed by a steady fall.
It is interesting to note that while the birth rates of both countries were comparable until 1950,
the gap between the two widened after this time as fertility in China slid away
