In 1979 the People’s Republic of China adopted a law introducing birth control planning, which is often known as the "one-child policy” in Western countries. The policy was created and implemented because of numerous demographic and economic problems. The paper presents the assumptions behind the introduced one-child policy, multidimensional analysis of the effects of its actions and their evaluation in the context of the economic development and demographic structure of the Chinese society. It further describes the historical and economic background of the policy and its short and long-term effects in the economic and socio-demographic areas. The analysis presented is based on the World Bank databases (for demographic data comparison), and on socio-political publications from both Western countries and mainland China. The paper strives to fully present and evaluate population planning policies implemented in the PRC.

PL

W 1979 roku w Chińskiej Republice Ludowej przyjęto ustawę wprowadzającą kontrolę planowania urodzeń, w krajach zachodnich częściej znaną pod nazwą „polityka jednego dziecka”. Była ona odpowiedzią nowej władzy Komunistycznej Partii Chin na szereg problemów demograficznych i gospodarczych, takich jak przeludnienie, nadmierne zużycie zasobów naturalnych, niedostatek dóbr. W artykule przedstawiono założenia wprowadzonej w Chinach polityki jednego dziecka, wieloaspektową analizę jej efektów oraz ich ewaluację w kontekście ekonomicznego rozwoju i demograficznej struktury społeczeństwa chińskiego. Opisano tło historyczne i gospodarcze wprowadzonej polityki oraz jej krótko-okresowe i długookresowe skutki w kontekście gospodarczym oraz społeczno-demograficznym.
