英文摘要:
A statistical analysis of financial, economic, and demographic indicators performed by the authors demonstrates (1) that the main countries of East Africa (Uganda, Kenya, and Tanzania) have not escaped the Malthusian Trap yet; (2) that this countries are not likely to follow the \"North African path\" and to achieve this escape before they achieve serious successes in their fertility transition; (3) that East Africa is unlikely to achieve this escape if it does not follow the \"Bangladeshi path\" and does not achieve really substantial fertility declines in the foreseeable future, which would imply the introduction of compulsory universal secondary education, serious family planning programs of the Rwandan type, and the rise of legal age of marriage with parental consent. Such measures should of course be accompanied by the substantial increases in the agricultural labor productivity and the decline of the percentage of population employed in agriculture.

中文摘要:
作者对金融、经济和人口指标进行的统计分析表明(1)东非主要国家(乌干达、肯尼亚和坦桑尼亚)尚未摆脱马尔萨斯陷阱;(2) 这些国家不太可能走上“北非之路”,在其生育率过渡取得重大成功之前实现这种逃避;(3) 如果东非不走“孟加拉国之路”,在可预见的未来不实现真正的大幅生育率下降,就不可能实现这种逃避,这将意味着引入义务普及中等教育、卢旺达式的认真计划生育计划,以及在父母同意的情况下提高法定结婚年龄。当然,这些措施应该伴随着农业劳动生产率的大幅提高和农业就业人口比例的下降。
