The demography of South Africa2005

"This study of South Africa provides a unique look at the interplay of demographics, social, and economic processes in a society undergoing rapid change as a result of the collapse of apartheid. It uses data from the first post-apartheid census as the basis for analysis of fertility, mortality within the context of HIV/AIDS, migration, education, employment, and household structure." "For the first time the demographic consequences of both the longer-term impact of apartheid policies and the policies of the new South Africa are examined and compared. Prepared under the auspices of the Population Studies Center at the University of Pennsylvania and Statistics South Africa, it is an essential resource for all scholars and practitioners in the field."--BOOK JACKET.
