Background
Overview
Understanding the long-term demographic, social, and economic impacts of large-scale population control policies is crucial for policy analysis, comparative studies with India's demographic challenges, and assessing the sustainability of development models.
The One-Child Policy was a population control measure implemented in China from 1979 to 2015, restricting most families to a single child. It aimed to alleviate social, economic, and environmental problems associated with rapid population growth but led to significant demographic and social consequences.
