Paul Demeny has been Distinguished Scholar at the Population Council since 1989. He has served as the editor of the Council’s Population and Development Review, which he founded, since 1975. He was a vice president of the Council from 1973 to 1988. His research focuses on population policy, international migration, food security, and replacement fertility issues. Prior to joining the Council, he was founder and director of the East-West Population Institute in Honolulu and a professor of economics at the University of Michigan, where he was also associate director of the Population Studies Center. With Council colleague Geoffrey McNicoll, he organized the 2002 Bellagio conference on The political economy of global population change, 1950 2050.
