ECONOMIC AND ADMINISTRATIVE MEASURES TO STOP THE DEMOGRAPHIC DECLINE IN ROMANIA

Summary/Abstract: The demographic decline represents one of the serious problems faced by most European countries over the last decades. Starting with 1992, Romania also has entered a demographic decline that has increased from year to year, mainly characterized by the decrease in the number of the population and by the aggravation of the age structure. This paper aims to analyze, first, the dimensions of the demographic decline in Romania as well as to highlight the determinant role of the natural increase of the population in maintaining this decline. At the same time, the paper highlight the need for a coherent, demographic policy, scientific fundamented, in order to ensure the recovery of the birth rate and, implicitly, to stop the demographic decline. I have presented some of the economic or administrative measures put in place by the Romanian state for stimulating birth rate and supporting families, measures that have a birth-boost effect only for certain social categories.
