d. Was created amidst the threat of mass starvation due to rapid population growth.

Explanation:

During the 20th century, China saw enormous economic growth. Many people went from poverty to becoming middle class, and many industries developed. However, this growth was insufficient to address the many problems that the country faced. Mass starvation and poverty were still rampant, and the government identified rapid population growth as one of the reasons for these problems. In an effort to address this, China implemented a one-child policy, dramatically decreasing the population of the country in a few years. However, the policy has also been a source of controversy because it has led to human rights violations.
