Abstract

Presentacion de los resultados de una serie de analisis para estimar los niveles de los parametros demograficos basicos de Haiti. La comparacion de la fecundidad actual y la retrospectiva con base en la Encuesta Demografica de 1973 y la aplicacion del metodo de los hijos propios, sugieren que la fecundidad total de Haiti alcanza a los 6.0 hijos por mujer (p47). El analisis de la mortalidad retrospectiva a partir del Censo de 1971, indica una esperanza de vida al nacer del orden de 47 anos, permaneciendo inciertos los niveles de la mortalidad en la ninez. La emigracion neta intercensal (1950-71) se estima en alrededor de 1000 a 2000 anuales, durante los 21 anos, con cierta concentracion despues de 1968. El analisis de la estructura por edad y sexo, sugiere que las edades de las mujeres esta exagerada a partir de los 40, mientras que en la de los hombres, el fenomeno tiene menos importancia, siendo mas aceptable
