Third Birth Transition

The "Third Birth Transition" is a theoretical framework within demographic theory that identifies and explains the shift toward very low or below-replacement fertility rates in post-industrial societies, distinguished from earlier transitions by its focus on fertility postponement, sub-replacement norms, and institutional responses to sustained low birth rates.
