Abstract

The present paper aims to present the global demographic evolution up to 2050 as a result of globalization and the various policies adopted by the countries of the world, as well as the economic and social implications resulting from the demographic decline. The population of the planet reached 7 billion people in May 2011 and will reach as much as 9 billion in 2050 according to a United Nations forecast. The UN experts also show that the population of the planet will grow to 8 billion people in 2023, 9 billion by 2041, and 10 billion people after 2081. Population growth will mainly occur in the so-called "extremely fertile countries" Africa, Asia, Oceania and Latin America, according to UN data. Researchers have warned, however, that a very small variation in female fertility could lead to major changes in the evolution of the planet's population, according to UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs reviews. By 2095-2100, global life expectancy will increase from 68 to 81 years, especially in the context of new treatments for diseases that reduce the number of early deaths in parts of the Earth, including Africa.
