History
The term was coined by A.Kuzmich (Anatoly Tsikunov) in his book The Plot of World Government: Russia and the Golden Billion, and used in his articles. The main idea behind this term was taken from Limits to Growth - that there are enough resources for only one billion wealthy people on earth. The term was later popularized by Russian writer Sergey Kara-Murza.
