Caribbean sociologists do believe in fertility control as an important mechanism in the economic development and social development of the countries within the Caribbean. The less people there are within a country the less money will be needed to spend on the development of that country therefore the objective of greater development of that country will be more quickly and easily attained. Within the Modernization theory it is believed that the rapid population growth of a country can be a great obstacle for the development of that country and thus containing and controlling a country’s population growth will therefore lead to their economic development as they are able to control their population and therefore the resources of that country are sufficient to sustain that country and aid in the development of that country.

This rise has been referred to as a ‘fertility crisis’ by international population demographers. By 2050 the population of Haiti is expected to reach 15.7 million people due to the fact that there is a lack of birth control and the women of Haiti constantly give birth to thousands of children which they are unable to feed, house or take care of sufficiently leading to a whopping almost one hundred per cent illiteracy which is at the root of their poverty. This overpopulation, lack of education and sufficient resources can be seen to have caused the lack of development in Haiti. The government of Haiti has not come up with an operational family planning program to control growing population …show more content…
It is thought that real industrial and economic development is dependent on the availability of human resources and the development of institutions such as those of the recreational institutions, religious branches, health organizations and educational institutions, and until that is achieved within a country it will not be truly and fully industrialized. There are therefore more important factors in addition to fertility control to aid in a country’s development.
