Abstract

Births, deaths and migrations are all factors that affect population fluctuations. World population growth is slowing down, but there are large regional differences. According to the results of recent censuses, the floating population of China is on the rise, however, the natural birth rate of China is decreasing year by year, and the domestic economy is also affected, as ‘The population growth rate of China has been steadily declining owing to the low birth rate of the country. The Chinese census also indicates that the population is also rapidly ageing because of increasing life expectancy in conjunction with the low birth rate’. This indicates that educational attainment and living standard are two major elements which affect the number of population fluctuation and economic growth. This study mainly analyzes the correlativity between population fluctuation and changes in economic returns through the trend of birth rate and societal changes. This essay regards as that population fluctuation and economic growth are closely related, and there is mutual influence and mutual promotion between them.
