Isi artikelThree interrelated beliefs concerning fertility patterns in historical China are widely held. The first suggests that fertility in Chinese history was very high; the second holds that Chinese couples did not control their fertility; and the third insists that the Chinese wanted to have as many children as possible. This study investigates whether deliberate fertility control was practiced in a selected Chinese population that was largely unaffected by China's nationwide family planning program, which began in the 1970s. The overall fertility of women in this population was rather high and fertility patterns were remarkably similar to those found in other historical Chinese populations. In the selected population, however, it is evident that a considerable number of people consciously adjusted their childbearing behavior according to what they had already achieved in reproduction. The evidence suggests that traditional Chinese culture might not be as thoroughly pronatalist as people commonly have supposed. Indeed, the fertility-regulating practice found in the selected population and China's recent fertility changes seem to indicate that some cultural beliefs might have played a facilitating role in lowering high fertility. While most Chinese people in the past did seek to have a son to continue their family line, a considerable number of them might not have wanted as many children as possible.
