Abstract
The problems of formation of regional policy and stages of formation and growth of geodemography as modern scientific field of population geography were reviewed in details in the article. In the first stage, a central place in the system of knowledge of the population belongs to the demographics. The second stage are increased by interaction of demography with other sciences, including geography. At their junction, a new discipline – population geography. In the third stage are forming the new direction of population geography –geodemography which orientated to the study of regional differences of population and resettlement and development of a regional demographic policy.The basic concepts of the new trend are geodemography development, geodemographic situation, geodemographic processes regional, settlement system, demoreproductive – territorial complexes, demographic policy. We have presented a methodological scheme formation of geodemography as a new trend in the sciences of the population in the following order: Demography – Population Geography – Geodemography. It is clear that geodemography has a substantive methodological overlap with demography, geography of population. In certain domain of geodemography can be accented and dominated certain aspects of its components - demography and population geography. On the one hand, geodemography are considered as a separate section of population geography (S.A. Kovalev et al.). Geodemography situation is defined within of population geography as “historically established in a particular area relationship between aggregate of demographic processes and structures of the socio-economic conditions and factors.” On the other hand, geodemography is considered as a special area of socio-economic geography (A. A. Anokhin, G.M. Fedorov et al.). And geodemographic situation involves a spatially defined demographic system along with its relationship to other regional socio-economic systems. The third approach stands in demographic studies. Geodemography is considered as part of demographic and geodemographic situation as existed at the area ratio of fertility, mortality, migration, what creating a defined population structure and dynamics of its population. The prefix “geo”, in our opinion, in this case shows only the territorial aspect of demography and demographic processes that have casual, insignificant character.
