PIP: Demographic transition in Latin America began in 1930 with a decrease in mortality rates, followed in 1965 by a decrease in birth rates, parallel to an intense process of modernization in the subcontinent's societies and economies. This model of demographic transition follows A. Landry's classic theory, although it shows very different forms in the changes in marriage rates compared to European countries. In the 1980s, a significant decrease in birth rates can be observed in the poorer sectors and the most backward areas in Latin America. This process represents a new model of demographic transition, which could be considered as a "poverty Malthusianism", and can be applied to families who limit births, fearing the great deterioration of their living conditions.
