Focusing on population dynamics, the work of Thomas Robert Malthus explores the tendency of populations to grow exponentially while food supply increases at a slower rate. He warns of the potential consequences of this imbalance, coining the term "Malthusian catastrophe" to describe the dire outcomes that may arise from unchecked population growth. His insights have had a lasting impact on political economics and demography, influencing discussions on sustainability and resource management.
