| Abstract |
The paper compares the demographic development of the Republic of Slovenia and the Republic of Kosovo in the recent decades. Its main aim is to point out important differences and causes of different evolution of demographic transition in the two environments. In the former, it was completed at the end of the previous century, whereas in the latter it reached only its first phase. While the Republic of Slovenia finds itself today in a post-transition situation characterized by considerably changed intergenerational relations, the Republic of Kosovo is still a transition society, with its current data on population movement revealing that it will have to face unprecedented challenges (also) related to anticipated radical changes in natality patterns of its population. |
