Eugenics Watch
Message:
Since you have written on Eugenics, you might be interested to know that the Society for the Study of Social Biology \"is in the process of renaming itself to the Society of Biodemography and Social Biology (SBSB)\" according to its current website http://www.usc.edu/dept/gero/sssb/.
There is a new Board of Directors - the first to be publicly announced since 1999; the journal has been renamed Biodemography and Social Biology.
The change reflects an attempt to grapple with the situation of low, low fertility which now exists in all the most powerful countries in the world except the US which has low fertility. (Germany, Russia, Japan, China, South Korea, France, Italy, Spain)
There are no population controllers on the new Board. However the Population Council has issued a defiant statement by John Bongaarts, former Board member, to the effect that it plans to continue its activities in Africa and elsewhere.
