Description
Summary:The issue of differentiation of socio-economic development indicators is relevant for the regions of the Russian Federation. An important condition for the effective and stable development of territories is a favorable demographic situation. This requires a competent and thoughtful demographic policy that will ensure population reproduction and economic development of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. The study area is the Arkhangelsk Oblast, partly included in the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation, which is of strategic interest to Russia due to its geopolitical, geo-economic position in the modern world. The aim of the work is to analyze the changes in the qualitative and quantitative composition of the population of the Arkhangelsk Oblast, determined by the processes of fertility, mortality, migration, as well as the socio-economic situation and state policy. To analyze the demographic situation, the paper uses traditional methods of analysis (comparison, relative and average values, graphic method). The paper presents the territorial differentiation of the demographic situation in the regions of the Northwestern Federal Okrug. The information base is national and regional statistical information for the last 10 years. The article discusses the interim results of the implementation of the national project “Demography” in the Arkhangelsk Oblast. The results of the study can be useful for state authorities and local governments that manage the regional development of territories within the framework of the national project “Demography”.
