- W625979652 abstract "This study provides an overview of the demographic transition among Latin Catholics in Kerala state India including a history of Christianity in Kerala a demographic profile of Christians in Kerala and in India characteristics in a sample of Roman Catholic parishes and analysis of baptismal records burial records and nuptiality data. The ratio of births to burials and births to marriages are linked to fertility decline. Data were obtained from church records. Kerala state now has below replacement fertility. The evidence suggests that the fertility transition began in the late 1950s. The mortality transition began during the 1920s increased rapidly during the 1970s and reached final stages in the 1980s. Marriage age continuously increased among males and females. The number of births declined secularly. The infant mortality rate declined sharply and the mean age at death increased. The analysis does not address whether coastal areas would have been different if modernization and privatization of health infrastructure had been more advanced over the past 100 years. A comparison of births to deaths in sample parishes in Bombay and Trivandrum indicates similar patterns of fertility decline except that the decline was faster in Trivandrum. Among Roman Catholics rates of fertility and mortality were very high in the last quarter of the 19th century and first part of the 20th century. Patterns were inconsistent until the 1950s. At that time mortality declined sharply and fertility declined moderately in a smooth transition. The marital fertility rate among Christians was always higher historically and now it is the lowest among religious groups." @default.
