Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Coercive pronatalist policies are aimed at increasing the birth rate, which in turn leads to an increase in the workforce. The government benefits based on family size encourage people to have more children, which helps in increasing the working population. Decreasing the workforce, increasing the number of females available for marriage, or replacing citizens who have immigrated to other countries are not the goals of coercive pronatalist policies.
