  Lecture: Fertility
  

  This lecture will cover theories of fertility decline, what makes fertility change, and low fertility. We will then focus on different methods for calculating fertility, learn about lexis diagrams and periods vs cohorts. We will then move to look at fertility differentials and policy and fertility. We will have a discussion session based on the readings.
