Every phase of the Transition model depicts a downfall in Birth Rate. The model was developed in 1929 by Warren Thompson who was a demographer and an American. He observed and analyzed carefully the pattern of transition in CDR and CBR in similar populace growth again and again in countries as their economy developed.
Four Phases of Demographic Transition
