Hi there. I'm Margarita Valpato and welcome to Intelligence Squared. The podcast about ideas that matter. In each episode, we speak to some of the world's most interesting thinkers. Not simply about what they've written or created, but about the ideas that drive their work and why they matter now.
In England and Wales, the total fertility rate fell to 1.39 children per woman in 2025. More than half of the world's countries and areas are now below the level at which a population replaces itself without migration. Yet those numbers cannot tell us whether people are freely choosing smaller families, struggling to find a partner, leaving parenthood too late, or being priced out of the future they want it. In this episode, I'm speaking to Camilla Cavendish, Baroness Cavendish of Little Venice, the award-winning journalist, Financial Times columnist, and Harvard Kennedy School Research Fellow. In her new book. Generation may be.
