Pressures of modern life, changing social mechanics, new personal aspirations, new economic systems that render children as financial burdens rather than assets, all bring about a great decline in birthrate. Even the USA shares that trend though it is masked and compensated by vibrant immigration. Japan is virtually unique in all the developing countries for its vehement anti-immigration policy that exacerbates the problem; its xenophobia is not unique though, consider how Turks are viewed in Germany or the resurgence of racists like BNP in Britain.
