title: [[Age composition and population cycles]].
abstract: The author attempts to correlate the endogenous population cycle with changes in age composition by examining population trends in Taiwan.  "It is argued that while the size of parental cohort is related to the size of offspring cohort by the renewal process, fluctuations in size are correspondingly transmitted and averaged time after time."  The concepts of population cycles as a key factor in population change is also examined.  (SUMMARY IN ENG)
