“…Regional capitals and their suburbs are almost the only points of positive population dynamics in the overwhelming majority of Russian regions. In conditions of near-zero rates of natural population increase in the country and negative population dynamics in two-thirds of regions [1], this increase is due to migration, which concentrates population in regional capitals and their closest suburbs. The centripetal movement primarily involves young people; therefore, the positive migration balance has a rejuvenating effect on the population of large cities, which improves the indicators of its reproduction.…”

“…This article aims to assess the migration balance of the population of Russia's regional capitals 1 and their environs (with allowance for individual intraregional, interregional, and international migration components), as well as to identify the age-related characteristics of migration increase (decrease) of the population in regional centers and their suburbs.…”

Regional capitals and their suburbs are a few stable points of population increase in Russia. The article singles out the near-capital areas for 72 regional centers of Russia (except for Moscow and Leningrad oblasts, as well as a number of other federal subjects) on the basis of proximity to regional centers. Indicators of migration population increase (decrease) for 2012-2016 were used for their characteristics, calculated from Municipal Units Database indicators both in whole and in part, with division of (a) intra-, interregional, and international migration and (b) the breakdown of migration rates by five-year age groups. The analysis shows that the migration balance in large cities and their suburbs does not have clearly expressed regional specifics: regional centers and their suburbs that actively attract migrants prevail in all parts of the country, which proves the widespread occurrence of a centripetal migration trend. On average, suburbs differ from regional capitals not only by a more intensive migration increase, but also by its structural features. Centers attract young people, first of all, those entering higher educational institutes. The suburbs, in contrast, attract families with dependent children, the middle-aged, and elderly.

“…The only exceptions are Slovenia and the Czech Republic, whose economic success has been accompanied by population growth. Bulgaria, Serbia, Russia, Ukraine, Croatia, and Hungary show steadily deteriorating demographic indicators both at the national (Mirchev, 2009;Zelikova, 2014) and regional levels (Borodina, 2017;Mladenov, 2007). Population decrease is increasingly seen as a potential threat to the national security of these countries (Aleshkovskii, 2012;Manov, 2014;Sidorenko, 2019).…”

Thirty years after the start of democratic change, Bulgaria's population has decreased by about 2 mln people. During this period , the country recorded one of the highest rates of population decrease in the world. These circumstances have confronted the Balkan country with a number of difficulties in regional development. The article outlines a specific national sociopsychological discourse on demographic processes in the conditions of Bulgaria's socioeconomic transformation. The main dilemma here is whether this is a demographic crisis or a demographic catastrophe. In addition to assessments of this problem at the national level, the author has attempted to interpret its ethnic and regional aspects. The chief theses are confirmed by selected empirical data, which illustrate the serious scale of depopulation of Bulgaria and regions of the country. The author emphasizes the helplessness of Bulgarian society and state policy, which have long suffered the lack of an operational approach to neutralizing negative demographic trends and depopulation in a number of regions.
