What problems now face some developed countries of their success in lowering the birth rate?

The developed country's of the world are the first to have a reduced birth rate. As a result of this They will not be able to work successfully in an economic system where an expansion in production for the sake of expansion has to occur every year.

No problem may occurs since undeveloped countries keep on their high birth rate.

Reasons why a developing country should strive to reduce its high birth rate?

The anwer to this question is more properly determined if the countries type of government is known. A high birth rate would affect different types of governments in different ways as a developing country would also be affected by the type of country it was, and how developed they actually are. A country going through an industrial period would be affected differently from a country who has a stake in the global market, or one which is still driven by agricultural commerce. I will answer in regards to the only government I have ever experienced myself, the democracy of the United States of America. 1. An increased birth rate would cause an increase in health care costs, and consequentially, any other costs which could be associated with the current age and development of the population boom generation. (i.e. the baby boomers). Developing countries are defined in part by the average income of an average citizen, and unless a country has a thriving economy to produce jobs for the increase in population numbers, the ultimate result will be a plateau and eventual decline of the economy. Population and economical growth have always been defined as a product of one another. When one levels out, so does the other. 2. An increased birth rate would cause an increase in the amount of representatives who are employed within the house of representatives. As the increase in birth rate would ultimately result in an increase in the average number of voting aged citizens, this would lead to an increase in the amount of politicians each state can employ to represent them within the House of Representatives in Washington, D.C. (This is currently happening in Utah, as they are seeking to expand from three to four districts, gaining one more representative seat in Washington, D.C.) As previously mentioned, these answers are solely based on the type of economical commerce and government the country employs. Answers will vary due to each scenario.

How does malthusian theory relate to Caribbean?

That was the theory of Thomas Robert Malthus (1766-1834), the English Cleric, author of the Essay on the Principle of Population and originator of the perception of economics as "the dismal science". Malthus reasoned that human population tends to grow at a geometrical rate, while our ability to prooduce subsistence increases at a merely arithmetical rate -- and so we find ourselves in an ever-deepening spiral of suffering caused by overpopulation. In Malthus's view this process could only be slowed by the "preventive check" of decreased fertility, or the "positive check" of increased mortality.
