Demographic Causes of Conflict and Their Implications for Public Health.

Demographic Causes of Conflict and Their Implications for Public Health. Int J Health Serv. 2019 Apr 19;:20731419843812 Authors: Hessel P Abstract Although levels of violence have declined, exposure to conflict, unfortunately, remains a common feature of many people's lives. While "demography is not destiny," demographic factors have been widely discussed as potential causes for conflict. This essay discusses the implications of two demographic megatrends - population growth and aging - on the future risk for conflict and their wider implications for public health and health care systems.
