Abstract

Over the last few centuries, governments have taken an increased interest in the rate of population growth in their nations. The People's Republic of china (PRC) is a nation where population management has been implemented in what can be said to be an extreme way. It is significant because the way that the PRC has intervened in human reproduction is broad-ranging and unprecedented in contemporary society. It is also an interesting topic of study because little is known about the effects of population politics. Since the PRC was founded in 1949, population has become a topic of central interest to the government. It began with an attempt to keep people in rural areas, but then became involved with trying to manage the number of people born. In 1979, china adopted the one-child policy, which prohibits urban families from having more than one child, but does allow for exceptions in many cases.
