Abstract
China has a consistent and well-defined policy to regulate the growth of her population. Population policy is considered as an integral part of overall social and economic development policy. It promotes the reduction of the growth rate in densely populated areas but encourages the increase of population in sparsely populated areas and among national minorities. A series of planned internal migration policies has regulated the spatial distribution of population. Main factors affecting the implementation of China's population policy are the establishment of an effective organization and communication system, the participation of the masses in the work, the socialist transformation of the national economy, the changes in the structure and functions of the Chinese family, the changing status of Chinese women, the development of public health services and the campaign for late marriage and family planning.
