La caída de la mortalidad en la infancia en la España interior, 1860-1960. Un análisis de las causas de muerte
Abstract
The causes of the decline of mortality, which have affected Western Europe during the last three centuries, have focussed the attention of most of the literature on historical demography during the last years. Our paper deals with the childhood mortality decline in a sample of villages in Central Spain from 1860 to 1960. We analyse the decline of childhood mortality by age and by groups of infectious diseases (food and water borne, airborne, infectious by vectors and other infectious diseases). Finally we point out a multi-causal approach to the decline of mortality examining some of the factors involved in the process.Downloads
