Inverse projection, designed in the late 1960s by Ronald Lee, is a method for reconstructing populations where vital registration data are available but age details are scarce and population census is lacking or unreliable, as it is often the case of historical populations. Since its introduction, several modifications have been made to Lee’s original procedure in order to address some of its shortcomings and to make the procedure suitable to the existing sources. Inverse projection and its developments have produced important innovations in the field of population reconstruction.

Abstract
Inverse projection, designed in the late 1960s by Ronald Lee, is a method for reconstructing populations where vital registration data are available but age details are scarce and population census is lacking or unreliable, as it is often the case of historical populations. Since its introduction, several modifications have been made to Lee’s original procedure in order to address some of its shortcomings and to make the procedure suitable to the existing sources. Inverse projection and its developments have produced important innovations in the field of population reconstruction.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
