"The island of Mauritius was facing a crisis by the 1950s as the relationship between its population and resources became unbalanced....A two-pronged strategy was set in place to change the relationship between population and resources. Firstly, an aggressive family-planning policy was established, reducing population growth. Secondly, the economy was diversified with tourism, financial services and, especially, manufacturing in the Mauritius Export Processing Zone, creating extra finance and resources. The changes have not been cost-free but Mauritius ends the century, not as a classic case of overpopulation, but more [as] a model micro-state that has overcome many population and resource problems, largely through its own efforts."

Maps showing areas of high and low density illustrate stark contrasts which result from the interplay of numerous forces.

"E. G. Ravenstein proposed 'laws of migration' to explain the movement of population in the British Isles from data in the 1881 census. Here, migration in Peru is studied using data from the 1981 census to ascertain the extent to which Ravenstein's 'laws' hold for a different country at a different time.... In conclusion, it is a salutory exercise to apply Ravenstein's seven laws and other findings to Peru and to see how, in a different environment a good time ago, someone could produce a model with wide applicability."
E. G. Ravenstein根据1881年的人口普查数据，提出了“移民法”来解释不列颠群岛的人口流动。本文使用1981年人口普查的数据对秘鲁的移民进行了研究，以确定拉文斯坦的“法律”在不同时期适用于不同国家的程度....总之，将拉文斯坦的七定律和其他发现应用到秘鲁是一个有益的尝试，看看在很久以前的不同环境中，有人如何能够产生一个具有广泛适用性的模型。”
