Neo-malthusianism was originally used to mean population limitation by birth control and/or abortion. Currently it may be used as a label for those who are concerned that overpopulation may increase resource depletion or environmental degradation to a degree that is not sustainable with the potential of ecological collapse or other hazards.

  • Neo-malthusianism was originally used to mean population limitation by birth control and/or abortion. Currently it may be used as a label for those who are concerned that overpopulation may increase resource depletion or environmental degradation to a degree that is not sustainable with the potential of ecological collapse or other hazards. It originates from the ideas of Thomas Malthus. The malthusian theory suggests a relationship between the growth of population and food. Thomas Malthus argued that population growth is geometric (1→2→4→8), and agricultural growth is arithmetic (1→2→3→4); therefore, population growth will increase at such a rate that eventually there will not be enough food for the population. The rapid increase in the global population of the past century (and its continued increase) complement Malthus' predicted population patterns. And also it appears to describe demographic dynamics of complex pre-industrial societies. These findings are the basis for neo-malthusian modern mathematical models of long-term historical dynamics (see, e.g. , Peter Turchin 2003; Peter Turchin et al. 2007; Korotayev et al. 2006). The Club of Rome has been called Neo-Malthusian. One early critic of Neo-Malthusian theory (by which he meant birth control and abortion), was Vladimir I. Lenin, the leader of the Bolshevik Party and main architect of the Soviet Union
  • Le néomalthusianisme est une actualisation de la doctrine de Thomas Malthus et de sa prise de conscience des ressources limitées de la Terre. Selon Malthus, la croissance démographique est beaucoup plus rapide que la croissance de la production alimentaire, ce qui nécessite une limitation de la natalité des pauvres pour éviter les famines dues à la surpopulation. Les néomalthusiens font de cette limitation des naissances un droit et un devoir humain.
  • Teoria Populacional Neomalthusiana é a atualização da Teoria Populacional Malthusiana, criada pelo demógrafo Thomas Malthus. Para os neomalthusianos, a superpopulação dos países era a causa da pobreza desses países. Com a nova aceleração populacional, voltaram a surgir estudos baseados nas idéias de Malthus, dando origem a um conjunto de formulações e propostas denominadas Neomalthusianas. Novamente os teóricos explicavam o subdesenvolvimento e a pobreza pelo crescimento populacional, que estaria provocando a elevação dos gastos governamentais com os serviços de educação e saúde. Isso comprometeria a realização de investimentos nos setores produtivos e dificultaria o desenvolvimento econômico. Para os neomalthusianos, uma população numerosa seria um obstáculo ao desenvolvimento e levaria ao esgotamento dos recursos naturais, ao desemprego e à pobreza. Os Neomalthusianos afirmam que a população cresce em Progressão geométrica enquanto o alimento cresce em Progressão aritmética. Afirmam também que é possível melhorar a produtividade da terra com uso de novas tecnologias, e que é possível reduzir o ritmo de crescimento da população através do planejamento familiar.

  • Nymalthusianism, Neomalthusianism (av grek. neos, ny) är en praktisk rörelse samt en teoretisk lära som förespråkar en inskränkning av familjernas storlek genom användning av preventivmedel, till skillnad från Malthusianismen som talar för sena giftermål och sexuell återhållsamhet och som drevs av Thomas Robert Malthus. Nymalthusianismen uppenbarade sig som folksed i Frankrike i slutet av 1800-talet där den tog sig formen av det s.k. tvåbarnssystemet. I början av 1900-talet började denna rörelse att breda ut sig till alla kristna folk förutom slaverna. Nymalthusianismen spreds som teoretisk lära först i Storbritannien, där "Malthusian league" bildades 1877 på grund av Annie Besants arbete. Senare kom den att predikas av en mängd nationalekonomer och filantroper i alla länder som det bästa medlet för att bekämpa fattigdomen.
