It arose in the aftermath of World War I and was understood as an issue with far-reaching ecological, agricultural, economic, and geopolitical consequences. The world population problem concerned the fertility of soil as much as the fertility of women, always involving both "earth" and "life. "Global Population traces the idea of a world population problem as it evolved from the 1920's through the 1960's. The growth and distribution of the human population over the planet's surface came deeply to shape the characterization of "civilizations" with different standards of living. It forged the very ideas of development, demographically defined three worlds, and, for some, an aspirational "one world. "Drawing on international conference transcripts and personal and organizational archives, this book reconstructs the twentieth-century population problem in terms of migration, colonial expansion, globalization, and world food plans. Population was a problem in which international relations and intimate relations were one. Global Population ultimately shows how a geopolitical problem about sovereignty over land morphed into a biopolitical solution, entailing sovereignty over one's person. 410 0$aColumbia studies in international and global history. 606 $aPopulation$xSocial aspects 606 $aPopulation$xEconomic aspects 606 $aPopulation$xHistory 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPopulation$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aPopulation$xEconomic aspects. 615 0$aPopulation$xHistory. 676 $a304.6 700 $aBashford$b Alison$f1963-$01030189 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910464460703321 996 $aGlobal population$92446994 997 $aUNINA
