Nathan Keyfitz mainly investigates Demography, Population growth, Birth rate, Econometrics and Statistics.
As part of one scientific family, Nathan Keyfitz deals mainly with the area of Demography, narrowing it down to issues related to the Developed country, and often Life expectancy.
His study in Population growth is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Economic growth, Social Welfare, Population size, Markov chain and Reproductive value.
The concepts of his Birth rate study are interwoven with issues in Child rearing, Interpersonal relationship, Labour economics and Demographic analysis.
His Econometrics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Parameter space, Combinatorics, Population projection and Projection.
Nathan Keyfitz has researched Statistics in several fields, including Function, Fraction and Projection.
His most cited work include:
- Introduction to the mathematics of population (818 citations)
- Applied Mathematical Demography (766 citations)
- Causes of death : life tables for national populations (260 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary areas of investigation include Demography, Population growth, Statistics, Economic growth and Econometrics.
His Demography study combines topics in areas such as Fertility, Birth rate and Age distribution.
His Population growth research includes elements of Developing country and Development economics.
His research combines Population projection and Econometrics.

- Population growth (10.78%)
- Demography (21.26%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Nathan Keyfitz focuses on Statistics, Population growth, Demography, Economic growth and Actuarial science.
His Statistics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Measure and Table.
While the research belongs to areas of Population growth, Nathan Keyfitz spends his time largely on the problem of Urbanization, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Population projection, Internal migration and Socioeconomic development.
His research integrates issues of Age structure, Fertility, Multidimensional analysis, Relation and Socioeconomics in his study of Demography.
The Economic growth study combines topics in areas such as Natural, Environmental degradation, Public economics and Public pension.
His research in Actuarial science intersects with topics in Permission, Imperfect, Liberian dollar and Valuation.
Between 1992 and 2016, his most popular works were:
- Do Cities Grow by Natural Increase or by Migration (49 citations)
- Marianne et les lapins : l'obsession démographique (48 citations)
- Thirty years of demography and Demography (46 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- World War II
- Law
- Statistics
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Population growth, Economic growth, Developing country, Public economics and Environmental degradation.
In his study, Socioeconomic development, Internal migration, Population projection, Information and Communications Technology and Fertility is inextricably linked to Urbanization, which falls within the broad field of Population growth.
His Economic growth study incorporates themes from Preference, Welfare, Malthusianism and Public pension.
Nathan Keyfitz works mostly in the field of Developing country, limiting it down to topics relating to Natural and, in certain cases, Rate of natural increase, Special case, Rural area, Industrial Revolution and Demographic economics, as a part of the same area of interest.
His work in Public economics addresses subjects such as Sustainable development, which are connected to disciplines such as Scientific evidence, Uncertainty, Economic power, World population and Moral obligation.
His Environmental degradation study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Developed country, Historical demography, Latin Americans, Immigration and Birth rate.
