Isi artikel

How population change affects human welfare was a central concern of economists during the decades that followed publication ofMalthus's Essay. But from the middle of the nineteenth century, continuing for some one hundred years, population issues played a marginal role in economics, with leading figures of that discipline, particu- larly in the New World, turning their attention to the topic only episodically. The presidential address delivered by Frank Fetter to the American Economic Associa- tion in 1913 is a notable example of such attention. Frank Albert Fetter (1863- 1949), much of whose career was spent as professor on the faculty of Princeton Uni- versity, was a prominent economic theorist of the early decades of the twentieth century and author, among numerous other works, of the influential texts Principles of Economics (1904) and its two-volume successors, Economic Principles (1915) and Modern Economic Problems (1916 and 1922)
