Abstract:
A reconstruction of post-Malthusian debates on population, birth control and theories of fertility. The articles also explores the 'providentialist-naturalist' version of anti-Malthusianism as extended into the socialist tradition (from utopian socialists to positivist socialists influenced by Spencer) drawing examples from France, Germany and Italy.
