Socio-Economic Impact of Natural Population Dynamics in Bistrița-Năsăud County Between 2000 and 2020

Abstract

Socio-economic Impact of Natural Population Dynamics in Bistrița-Năsăud County between 2000 and 2020. Natural population dynamics is a topic that is largely dealt with at national level, but little analysed on a smaller scale (at county or basic administrative-territorial unit level), which could provide an opportunity for a more in-depth analysis and highlight possible areas where the situation is different from that existing at national level. Over time, the changes that have occurred in the natural dynamics of the population in Romania have highlighted numerous changes and shifts at the societal level, influencing either positively or negatively its subsequent trajectory. The aim of this paper is to capture the demographic evolution of Bistrița-Năsăud County and to outline the current situation. The focus will also be on capturing the impact of the current demographic evolution, an impact noted at territorial, demographic, social and economic level. Furthermore, possible solutions will be proposed to solve the emerging problems.
