Population Policy Shifts and Their Implications for Population Stabilisation in Pakistan
No full textThe visible fast increase in the growth rate of world population occurred during the second half of the twentieth century due to the faster declines in mortality following the medical and public health advances made around the time of World War II. The global population growth rate after peaking of at around 1.7 to 1.9 percent per annum in the 1970s and 1980s has since started declining and is currently around 1.4 percent per annum. The world population more than doubled, recording 142 percent increase, from 2.51 billion in 1950 to around 6.07 billion in 2000 [Hakim (2000)]. Most of the increase has been in less developed countries, from 1.68 billion in 1950 to 4.88 billion in 2000, recording 190 percent. Compared to this, the more developed countries witnessed only a marginal increase of 43 percent from 0.83 billion in 1950 to 1.19 billion population in 2000.

No full text“Soy profesora de Música de una asignatura llamada Formación Auditiva”, nos dice Genoveva Salazar Hakim en el comienzo del libro. Este es el punto de partida desde el cual se embarca en un recorrido por esas tensiones que va dejando al descubierto, sus orígenes, causas, desarrollos y consecuencias. El territorio andado es el de la formación auditiva, un espacio paradojal y caleidoscópico, en el cruce de las exigencias del dominio de la notación musical de los músicos del siglo
XIX y las necesidades que de ella tienen los protagonistas de la cultura musical posalfabetizada. Personalmente, comparto con ella este campo profesional y puedo decir que tal vez sea este uno de los espacios académico-musicales que más bestial
e inexplicablemente genera adhesiones, frustraciones, sumisiones, estigmatizaciones, violencias y renunciamientos. La mirada con la que Genoveva realiza este viaje es francamente la de una docente sensible, atenta, crítica e inteligente, preocupada sin reservas por sus estudiantes, en cuanto seres sensibles y creativos, su desarrollo musical y sus vínculos con la cultura. Por ello, el objeto de estudio aquí es claramente esa sensibilidad, relatada por sus propios portadores. Aquí la autora
se muestra profundamente comprometida con el universo que investiga. No se viste con trajes antisépticos a fin de no contaminarse; por el contrario, se interesa profundamente por la suerte de las personas y las instituciones que analiza y plantea su trabajo como parte de su compromiso por su bienestar.“I am a Music teacher of a subject called Auditory Training,” Genoveva Salazar Hakim tells us at the beginning of the book. This is the starting point from which it embarks on a journey through those tensions that reveal their origins, causes, developments and consequences. The territory covered is that of auditory training, a paradoxical and kaleidoscopic space, at the crossroads of the demands of the mastery of musical notation of the musicians of the century.

and inexplicably generates adhesions, frustrations, submissions, stigmatizations, violence and renunciations. The view with which Genoveva makes this journey is frankly that of a sensitive, attentive, critical and intelligent teacher, unreservedly concerned about her students, as sensitive and creative beings, their musical development and their links with culture. Therefore, the object of study here is clearly that sensitivity, reported by its own bearers. Here the author
She is deeply committed to the universe she investigates. He does not dress in antiseptic suits in order not to become contaminated; On the contrary, he is deeply interested in the fate of the people and institutions he analyzes and presents his work as part of his commitment to their well-being.Bogot
