Fewer births, but a boy at all costs: selective female abortion in Asia

Résumé

Population and Societies has not so far turned its attention to the rising proportion of male births in Asia today. And yet it will have far-reaching social and demographic consequences, not just in the countries affected, but for all humankind: it bears remembering that China and India alone hold nearly 40% of the world population. Gilles Pison reflects here on the origin, scale and mechanisms of the phenomenon.
