| Abstract: | A recent paper reviewed the influence of migration on Malta’s demographic transition, commenting on a debate that has moved beyond academic demography and into the public policy, economic sustainability and healthcare planning. It is timely to revisit this study after international bodies have commented on the current local economic model. The paper traces fertility, population and employment trends over more than two decades, revealing a delayed of the demographic transition phenomenon at the cost of reliance on inward migration.
