Abstract
Since the introduction of Lee’s Inverse Projection (IP — [7]), several modifications have been made to overcome some of its methodological limitations and make the procedure suitable for the existing sources, which may be very different from country to country. In this field, two procedures in particular instigated a lively discussion among demographers in the 1990s, due to their completely different approaches: Generalised Inverse Projection (GIP — [11, 12]) and Stochastic Inverse Projection (SIP — [2, 3]).
