Bloomberg has produced an interesting article examining the impact of reforms to China’s One Child Policy, which was partially deregulated one year ago:

In a society taught for a generation to regard large families as decadent, few have yet responded to the policy tweak, leaving China on an aging demographic path that’s eroding economic growth.
