Which is a fair point. I'm not an expert by any means, but the change in population growth could have come from various effects: maybe it wasn't the end of socialism, but the start of capitalism; maybe it wasn't the start of capitalism, but a general uncertainty after the old system dissolved; maybe it was coming from a third source (see above); maybe it was a global phenomenon, which has been happening in developed countries ever since; I don't know, maybe it was The Shining coming out in 1980.
