Nicolás Sánchez-Albornoz, The Population of Latin America: A History (Berkeley and Los Angeles, 1974) provides a general overview of population in Latin America; chaps. 6–8 cover trends in the twentieth century. A second Spanish edition, La población de América Latina: Desde los tiempos precolombinos al año 2000 (Madrid, 1977) includes revisions and an extensive bibliography. Another, more recent overview in Carmen A. Miró, ‘América Latina: Transición demográfica y crisis económica, social y política’, in Memorias del Congresso Latinoamericano de Población y Desarrollo, vol. 1 (Mexico, D.F., 1984), 65–114. In preparation for the 1974 World Population Conference, the Comité Internacional de Coordinación de Investigaciones Nacionales en Demografía (CICRED) sponsored a series of national monographs in collaboration with Latin American demographic research centers. This series includes La población de Argentina (Buenos Aires, 1975); La population du Brésil (Paris, 1974); La población de Chile (Paris, 1974); La población de Colombia (Bogota, 1974); La población de Costa Rica (San José, C.R., 1976); La población de Cuba (Havana, 1976); La población de Guatemala (Guatemala, 1976); La población de Mexico (Mexico, D.F., 1976); La población del Perú (Lima, 1974); and La población de Venezuela (Caracas, n.d.). Other general country studies include Thomas W. Merrick and Douglas H. Graham, Population and Economic Development in Brazil: 1800 to the Present (Baltimore and London, 1979) and Francisco Alba, The Population of Mexico: Trends, Issues, and Policies (New Brunswick, N.J., 1982).
