Concerning the Small Family, its Causes and Consequences
A Discussion
This new series is to deal with one of the major problems of the future -the trend in world population and the significance of some of its causes and effects. It would seem that in Europe small families are the chief single cause of the fall in population and of the growing disparity between young and old. Is the reason for this economical, or is it social?
The series opens with a debate.
On the one hand will be heard T. H Marshall , Reader in Sociology at the London School of Economics (who will take part in each broadcast in the series), and, side by side with him, another expert, D. H. McLach lan, author of articles on population in The Times. On the other hand listeners are to hear three people who are not experts, who are only too well acquainted with some of the reasons deterring married couples from having large families.
