Abstract

The expected lifetime, state of health and death rate are crucial components of reproduction and formation of human potential. It is shown that since 1993 Siberia has suffered a fall of birth rate and entered a zone of negative natural increase, 30-40% below-replacement reproduction. A clear trend to decline of population size is traced by the authors over all regions of the Siberian Federal District. This demographic situation will lead to a quicker ageing of population and to low proportion of children in it. In the result, the average age in Siberia will rise 2.5 years in a decade. Its demographic potential will be unable to meet the labor requirements of the growing economy, and the additional demand will have to be met only by attracted foreign labor
