Allen, Robert C., et al., eds., Living Standards in the Past: New
Perspectives on Well-being in Asia and Europe, 2005.
"The
initial empirical analyses show a variability of reactions within
central-northern Italy similar to that already observed in the European
countries (Galloway 1988)."-Marco Breschi, Alessio Fornasin, and Giovanna
Gonano p. 327.
" Even if peasant were heavily involved in the market, results on
historical Europe suggest that they would not have benefited from high prices,
because the inverse correlation between production and prices was strong enough
that for small producers the benefits of being able to sell at a higher price,
were typically offset by the drawbacks of having less to sell (Galloway
1988)."-James Z. Lee and Cameron D. Campbell p. 410.
Alter, George, et al., 'Prices, Crises, and Mortality in
the Belgian Ardennes', 1999.
"For example, mortality may have increased during hard times because hunger
lowers resistance to disease, or mortality may increased because diseases were spread by
people who took to the roads looking for work (Galloway 1988)."-George
Alter, Michel Oris, and Paul Servais p. 1.

"Why mortality would go up and down in these long
cycles is not known. One hypothesis is that fluctuations in global weather
patterns were responsible. Alternative explanations stress instead the role of
fluctuations in the balance and accommodation between infective agents,
microbes and vectors, and their human hosts. To the extent that changes in
weather patterns affect the diversity and size of infective agents and vectors,
these two explanations are complementary (Galloway, 1986)."-National
Research Council p. 118.

Project on the European Fertility Transition', 2003.

transition." John C. Brown and Timothy W. Guinnane p. 3.
Doepke, Matthias, 'Child Mortality and Fertility Decline:
Does the Barro-Becker Model Fit the Facts?', 2004.
"The German case is analyzed in more
detail by Galloway, Lee, and Hammel (1998), who examine family-level data from
Prussia in the period 1875 to 1910. Unlike most empirical studies, Galloway,
Lee, and Hammel employ two-stage least squares estimation to deal with
potential two-way causality between child mortality and fertility. In regressions that exploit the
cross-sectional variation across cities and districts in their data set, little evidence for a significant relationship
of child mortality and fertility is found. On
the other hand, when a fixed effect for each district is introduced (so that only the time-series variation in each district is
exploited) a strong positive relationship between child mortality and
fertility arises."-Matthias Doepki p. 16.

Transition, 1997.
"(Galloway et al. 1994)
go further, employing historical Prussian data to cast doubt on the basic
findings of the Princeton European Fertility Project. They argue that economic changes did indeed
play a central role in Europe's fertility decline."-D. I. Kertzer p.146.
Kulu, Hill, et al., 'Settlement size and fertility in the
Nordic countries', 2006.
"Recently,
Galloway et al. (1998) analysed the causes of fertility differences in
demographic transition Prussia according to the level of urbanisation. The authors showed that in the early
20th century urban fertility was far lower than rural fertility because
the major socio-economic characteristics of the population changed more
rapidly in the cities – this applies in particular to female
labour-force participation (in non-traditional occupations) – and because
the effect of these characteristics on fertility was also stronger there."
-Hill Kulu, Andres Vikat, and Gunnar Andersson p. 6.
Lee, Ronald, 'The Demographic Transition: Three Centuries
of Fundamental Change', 2003.
"At the aggregate level,
population growth throughout the regions of the world was slow over the past
millennium, but there was a puzzling similarity in long swings about the growth
path, such as stagnation in the fourteenth and seventeenth centuries and more
rapid growth in the fifteenth and eighteenth centuries. While exchanges of
disease through exploration and trade may have played some role, global climatic
change was probably the main driving force (Galloway, 1986). "-Ronald Lee

"In addition to the
political factors mentioned above, Galloway (1986) has speculated that climatic
change may have played a significant role in determining trends in population
growth."-Chris Wilson p. 29.

"Patrick Galloway (1988) demonstrated that,
in many European countries, vital rates were responsive to grain prices in the
way the model predicts."-Joel Mokyr and Hans-Joachim Voth p. 7.
"The work of Patrick Galloway (1988) shows that in the middle of the
eighteenth century the short-term behavior of British vital rates was no longer
very responsive to changes in prices.
This suggests that in contrast with the arguments of growth theorists, the
Malthusian regime was falling apart before the Industrial Revolution and not as
a response to it."-Joel Mokyr and Hans-Joachim Voth p. 21.

Nicolini, Esteban A., 'Was Malthus Right? A VAR Analysis of
Economic and Demographic Interactions in Pre-Industrial England', 2006.
"Past research suggest
that positive checks were quite important in pre-industrial Europe, but that
its magnitude diminished with economic development (Galloway 1988)....Available
evidence for pre-industrial Europe in general suggests that the preventive
check was quite strong, stable, and insensitive to level of development
(Galloway 1988)."-Esteban A. Nicolini pp. 13-14.
Richards, John F., 'The Unending Frontier: An Environmental
History of the Early Modern World', 2006.
"Patrick Galloway, an historical
demographer, compared long-term annual variations in births, deaths, marriages,
and grain prices with seasonal temperatures for England,...,France,....,
Prussia, ..., and Sweden. He found that
annual fluctuations in food-grain prices...had a direct impact for a few years
on fertility and mortality.... Mortality increased during and for a few years
after cold winters and hot summers (Galloway 1994)."-John F. Richards p.
75.

Among and Within World-Systems', 2003.
"As we mentioned in the Introduction,
one empirical pattern that requires explanation is synchronous changes
of empire sizes in West and East Afroeurasia. Ecological theory suggests
several hypotheses, the simplest one being the effect of an exogenous
global factor—climate. World-system theorists (Chase-Dunn et al 2000) have already suggested
this explanation, but historical demography
(Galloway 1986) presents it in its most developed form."-Peter
Turchin and Thomas D. Hall p. 50.
