Why did the soviets not allow people to leave occupied East Germany
kolezko [41]
Its been a while since I did this topic, but I believe it was mostly because under communism there was little work for intellectuals, so they were often the ones who left the country. This resulted in a 'brain drain', a lack of knowledgable people. I seem to remember reading about the entire maths department of a university just up and leaving at one point. You could also argue that it was damaging for the image of communism if so many people were trying to leave.

The demographic transition Theory helps explain
Xelga [282]

Answer:

The demographic transition theory helps explain:

d. how population change is related to the technological development of a society.

Explanation:

Let's expand the concept letter D offers of demographic transition theory. Technological development is merely one of the factors that affect populations. The others are education and economic development.

According to the demographic transition theory, we find high rates of birth as well as death in societies with low economic and technological development and in which people are less educated.

As societies develop and people have more access to education, we notice firstly a decrease in death rates. Then, due to fertility and birth control, birth rates will also go down. Finally, both rates will be low in advanced societies.
