人口发展与经济发展相适应的问题,并非今天才提出来。早在纪元前500年—纪元18世纪之间,即从柏拉图时代到马尔萨斯时代之间,人们就经常发表关于人口多寡的议论。虽然两种生产相适应的思想理论在这一时期尚未形成,但他们的思绪中已蕴含着这方面的初始意思。 The issue of population development suited to economic development has not been raised today. As early as the era of 500 BC - the 18th century, that is, from the Platonic era to the Malthus era, people often talk about the size of the population. Although the two kinds of production adapted to the theory of thought in this period has not yet formed, but their thoughts already contain the original meaning in this regard.
