Compare Population Gender and Politics by Roger Jeffery, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

In this book, a study of the population processes of two castes in north India, the authors ask why fertility levels are higher among the Muslim Sheikhs than the Hindu Jats. They conclude that explanations can only partly be attributed to gender and religion, and that economic and political status is a defining factor. The book has implications for the understanding of population and politics in India generally, and will be invaluable to students of the region and anyone interested in the demography of developing countries. | Population Gender and Politics by Roger Jeffery, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
