Population and the Environment John R. Weeks, San Diego State University Course Objectives: The purpose of this course is to understand the causes and consequences of population growth at the global, national, regional, and local level, focusing especially on the interrelationships among and between population size, growth, and distribution and the natural and built environments. The major goal of the course is to offer insight into why and how populations grow, and where and under what conditions population growth has positive and negative consequences. This requires that we understand the interaction of mortality, fertility, migration, population structure, and population characteristics. All of these factors will be considered within the context of cultural change and economic development. The course will include a review and analysis of national, regional, and global policies for dealing with population growth, environmental change, and the rise in affluence and control over nature that has led to both phenomena. Required Texts: John R. Weeks, Population: An Introduction to Concepts and Issues, Eighth Edition (Belmont; CA: Wadsworth), 2002; and K. Bruce Newbold, Six Billion Plus: Population Issues in the Twenty-First Century (Lanham, MD: Rowman & Littlefield), 2002 In addition, there will be required readings that will be downloaded (or at least read) over the internet. These include: Frank Hobbs and Nicole Stoops, Demographic Trends in the 20 th Century, Census 2000 Special Reports (U.S. Census Bureau), 2002: http://www.census.gov/prod/2002pubs/censr-4.pdf, and Mark R. Montgomery, Richard Stren, Barney Cohen, and Holly E. Reed, Editors, Cities Transformed: Demographic Change and Its Implications in the Developing World (Washington, DC: Panel on Urban Population Dynamics, National Research Council), 2003: http://www.nap.edu/catalog/10693.html Important Note: You will need to have access to the Internet to complete parts of each of the assignments in this course, as well as to access some of the required readings. It is obviously preferable that you have your own account, but at a minimum you need to know someone with an account who will give you access several times during the semester. There is access through the Library and other places on campus, but there is a lot of competition for those resources. 21
