SOCIO-DEMOGRAPHIC SITUATION IN THE REPUBLIC OF NORTH OSSETIA-ALANIA IN THE PERIOD 2005-2020

Bigulov, Simon A.
Kavkaz Forum. 2023. Issue 14.
Abstract:
The demographic situation in the republic is an incredibly important factor in
social processes. The relevance of tracking demographic factors makes it possible
to more adequately assess the state of the republic, identify the most sensitive
elements characteristic of the declared period, and also trace the political
methods for improving the situation that influenced the current situation in the
republic. The study of the state of socio-demographic processes in the designated
period makes it possible to simplify the task of formulating the most reasonable
approach to the issues of the demography of the republic, to avoid possible
misinterpretation of the available statistical data. Understanding the key problems
of the republic’s demography allows the political elite to focus in the future on
issues commensurate with social opportunities in this area. The purpose of this
work is to identify the specifics of the socio-demographic situation in the Republic
of North Ossetia-Alania in the period 2005-2020. As tasks, we can single out the
analysis of official statistical data affecting the demographic situation in the
republic; determining the conformity of the demography of the republic with the
demographic transition model; as well as identifying the effectiveness of methods
for improving the demographic situation by pro-natalist policies. The novelty of
this article lies in a comprehensive analysis of the demographic situation of the
republic in the designated period using sociological models. On the basis of the
study, it is concluded that there are signs of a developed society in the republic that
has overcome the second demographic transition with a corresponding change in
demographic behavior, the rollback of which is not possible through the use of
political methods; however, the demographic crisis observed in the republic can
be smoothed out by making efforts to improve the situation in areas not related
to the changes in the second demographic transition, such as mortality, youth
migration and the labor market of the republic.
Keywords: demographic situation, second demographic transition, pronatalist policy, youth migration.
