This paper identifies factors that account for areal differences in childhood mortality in Swaziland. An analytic model developed by Mosley and Chen (1984) is used to study the determinants and their mechanisms A multivariate analysis is used to investigate mortality variation. Data used in this paper are from the 1983 Swaziland National Nutrition Survey and the 1986 Swaziland Population Census. The results show that ecological zone, access to a major road and maternal education are the most important determinants of geographic variation in mortality in Swaziland. Together, these explain about 57 percent of the variation in mortality. Of particular interest is the finding that the effect of building a road is almost equivalent to that of in...
