The influence of migration component on demographic potentials in some Serbian rural settlements

Abstract

Period after Second World War was a time well known after the very large population movement from rural to urban areas which cause depopulation in numerous rural settlements in Serbia. Emigration from villages to towns decimated, in demographic sense, small settlements in the first place, and urban areas became bearers of the population growth. Some of the rural settlements had privilege of their geographic position and certain functions and that's why they attracted population from other places. In those settlements number of people who moved in (was not born there) was more than 50% of total population. In this paper this rural settlements will be discussed about.

Period nakon Drugog svetskog rata karakterističan je po ruralnom egzodusu i stihijskoj urbanizaciji, što je izazvalo depopulaciju u mnogim seoskim naseljima na teritoriji Republike Srbije. Masovna emigracija selo-grad desetkovala je, u demografskom smislu populaciono mala naselja, a nosioci porasta stanovništva postala su gradska naselja. Pojedina seoska naselja sa većim pogodnostima svog položaja i nekim funkcijama su i pored preovlađujućih trendova uspela da privuku stanovništvo. U takvim naseljima broj doseljenog stanovništva predstavlja više od 50% ukupnog stanovništva naselja. Upravo o tim naseljima će biti reči u ovom radu.
