Just learning now how Ben Franklin as an amateur demographer predicted how the white settler population of the US would double every twenty-five years over the nineteenth century.

Next, @mpbergeron.bsky.social gave a bird-eye overview of her uniquely focused and purely brilliant demographic path over the last few years. Marie-Pier is really the heir of Jim Vaupel, with her deep love for demography and a phenomenal ability to set up the agenda and ignite others' enthusiasm 🚀

Updating some old popgen code which uses msprime. While there are aspects of the new demography API which are cleaner, I think the mixing of forwards and backwards in time concepts is confusing. Eg talking about population splits and admixtures in what is fundamentally a coalescent framework.

The intersection between India’s democracy and demography

Indian democracy has been based on the principle of universal franchise since independence. However, the actual manifestation of popular will in government is mediated by two simultaneous processes: the first-past-the-post (FPTP) system and the judicious distribution of seats in Parliament. The FPTP system means that the winner at the constituency level does not need to obtain a majority of votes to win the election. It is enough to be the first among others. The second means that a particular vote in a state can have different values in terms of sending an MP to the Lok Sabha.

They’ve gone back to working the arc along the edge of the City, where the combination of demography and infrastructure make their job easier.

what do you mean mischaracterizing. The terms "birth rate" and "general fertility rate" are interchangeable. This is standard demography.

I appreciate a journal that doesn’t require a specific format the first time! And luckily my demography journals seem to all use the same format. But I have relied on my grad student coauthors to fix my laziness when needed 😬

Yes! It reminds me of how surprised some European demographers are by the huge emphasis on health in US demography.

American Sociological Association

ASA member Karen Guzzo @karenguzzo.bsky.social and demographer Wendy Manning @wendymanning.bsky.social highlight some of the factors that may be contributing to the decline in birth rates in the U.S. in this @washingtonpost.com article.

U.S. fertility rate hits a new low as teenage births fall, CDC says

Experts point to economic pressures and delayed marriages as two factors in the downward trend, which has been a political flash point.

It has been a long nightmare here. It's not a coincidence that our education system is near the bottom, our state income taxes are zero, and out political scandals are ever present. I have always loved the circumstances of Florida's geography, but hate the consequences of its demography.

I don't like ASA as an org or as a meeting. But I need sociology to exist. Being a demographer is super dope, but it's not enough!

Today, the number of Americans who are turning 80 or older is close to 15 million. Their ranks are expected to double within two decades, says William Frey, a demographer at the Brookings Institution. They hope to live even longer: Those 80 and older, on average, aspire to live to 93.
