First sentence: During the last several decades a steadily growing community of scholars interested in demographic problems have produce a number of monographs and collaborated in groups and networks to produce edited collections, which have increasingly opened up a dialogue between demographic approaches to the study of population and the range of questions and perspectives that the disciplines of anthropology and history bring to this same field of problems.
