Abstract

The infant mortality rate is considered to be one of the most important indicators of demographic well-being since infants are amongst the most vulnerable groups within society and their survival is influenced by a wide range of socioeconomic factors. This paper, the first of four, examines the trend in infant mortality over four centuries. It discusses the methods and sources needed to study infant mortality and it also establishes a framework whereby the various influences on infant mortality can be assessed.
