Description
Summary:The features of demographic processes in the northeastern Arctic region of Russia - Chukotka Autonomous Okrug are considered. In different periods of development, they proceeded with varying intensity, according to these criteria, at times multidirectional stages in settlement and economic development were distinguished. There is a significant de- pendence of migration growth with the creation of large extractive indus- tries in the region, which determined the level of economic well-being of the population living here and the region as a whole. It is substantiated that the outflow of the population is also associated with the "winding down" of extractive industries in connection with the "perestroika" reforms. The dynamics of natural population growth is in many respects "linked" with the periods of active development of mineral resources and "perestroika" reforms. It is emphasized that such features of the formation of the demo- graphic potential of the Arctic territories should be taken into account when developing programs for their socio-economic development, the Concept of demographic policy. A number of statistical analyzes and assessments (structure of migration flows, causes of mortality, life expectancy, etc.), which also affect the demographic situation in the region, have been car- ried out in the work. Measures are proposed to maintain demographic growth in the context of a reduction in reserves for an increase in the birth rate, an aging population, a persistent migration outflow, the presence of losses of the working-age population as a result of mortality from external causes of death, etc.
