Abstract:
The introduction of digital technologies, the Internet and social media into human life provides new information and data sources for the study of demographic behavior. The article studies the analysis of demographic characteristics based on e-demographic data. The creation of an e-demographic system is one of the urgent issues for demographic research, the management of demographic processes and for the study of demographic behavior. The article is devoted to the analysis of demographic indicators. The article examines the existing international experience in the field of e-demography, analyzes the current state of research in the field of creating a single population register. In order to build an e-demographic system, it is proposed to integrate public registers in various fields into a single platform through a personal identification number. Demographic analyzes can be conducted information on social networks, mobile phones, banking systems, insurance companies, via traces in various search browsers. The article analyzes demographic characteristics based on e-demographic data. The experiment examined the analysis of demographic characteristics of graduates who studied abroad. Demographic analysis was conducted according to the age, sex, marital status, education level, specialty, country of study and other indicators of the graduates. K-Means model was used to divide the graduates into different clusters. According to the experience, it is possible to divide graduates who studied abroad into clusters according to their age. Thus, graduates of each cluster can be surveyed according to other demographic indicators. E-demography creates new opportunities for social research and population data monitoring. The establishment of an e-demographic system will allow for population statistics, online census monitoring, in-depth analysis of demographic processes and the study of demographic behavior. Citizens of each cluster will be able to conduct different analyzes according to income, field of work, education and other indicators. The research proposes to build an e-demographic system on the basis of a single state register. In future research, the data in the various registers will be analyzed in depth.

Abstract:
This paper is dedicated to the 50th anniversary of the Stanovnistvo (Population) journal, launched by the Center for demographic research in Belgrade in 1963. The anniversary is an opportunity to reflect on developments and trends in demography as a discipline, thus the paper points out certain specifics of these developments. The specifics discussed mirror the author's choice, which was guided primarily by the criterion of interestingness, but also by the intention to make a survey. Hence points about the development of demography are backed by insights made by a number of other demographers. The major source of references were papers and speeches given on similar occasions - anniversaries of journals, anniversaries of associations of demographers, as well as special issues of journals dedicated to theory and methodology. Certain points are also made based on other sources of reference. The major part of the paper is related to transformations of demography, which has started as a predominantly formal discipline and has developed into a social and interdisciplinary field. Topical and methodological expansion of demography induces mixed reactions among demographers. Ones welcome its diversification, whereas others see such changes as signs of abandoning the essence of demography. This makes it harder and harder to define the area of demographic research. Changes in demography are mostly studied from the standpoint of polarized dimensions: quantitative-qualitative, macro-micro, and, in the context of diversification, formal demography vs. population studies. Another important segment of development trends in demography is that of improving its vocabulary, which is affected by other fields related to demography. Terminological changes are also related to the specification of certain branches and subfields of demography. For instance, anthropological and spatial demography have roots in earlier development phases of demography. Still, these terms have become popular at a later stage, only when the methodological and cognitive capacities of the corresponding research approaches have increased. The paper also indicates that demographers do not find new inspiration only outside of the core demographic problems. As an example, man fertility is briefly discussed as an increasingly popular topic in literature during the last decade. Finally, attractive presentation of demographic content is found to be very important for visibility and applicability of demography, which is illustrated by interpreting some of the most frequently videos related to demography on YouTube. The paper concludes that different paths that open during the development of demography are not incompatible, that they represent demographers' diverse choices, and that they all contribute to strengthening the field.

Abstract:
The advancing of information and communication technologies has contributed to their introduction into almost all areas of human activity, as well as the field of demography. The advent of such a field as electronic demography has become a precondition for the improvement of an electronic demographic system on the e-government platform. Demography is a multidisciplinary field of science, and along with other areas, it also includes linguistic demography. Therefore, in the electronic demographic system, along with other segments, there is a segment of linguistic demography. Each area in the data warehouse (DW) of the electronic demographic system has its own data mart (DM). This article highlights several complications in the formation of DM of linguistic demography. These complications are linked to the fact that linguists-researchers offer several approaches to the definitions of the notions of “language” and “dialect”. Moreover, when establishing a language indicator in a country, one of its three options can be approved - as a native language, as a language of everyday communication or as a language of use. In this regard, certain difficulties arise in the establishment of a segment of linguistic demography in the electronic demographic system. This article shows the complications of establishing linguistic demography and presents certain proposals for their solution.

Abstract:
The article defines the prerequisites for the development of the professional standard “Demographer”, which is a fundamental stage for the formation of a new model of human resources in the field of demographic development. Content analysis of approved / valid documents revealed the absence of professional and educational standards for training specialists in the field of demography. Generalization and analysis of information on the subject area revealed existing problems, primarily in the field of public administration in the field of ensuring demographic security. The synthesis of modern methodological approaches made it possible to formulate the conclusion that demography as an independent type of activity (along with practical, scientific, etc.) has its own specialized (demographic) technologies and in modern conditions there is an urgent need to train professional personnel – “demographers”. Comparison of the All-Russian Classifier of Occupations (OKZ) with the International Standard Classification of Occupations 2008 (ISCO-08) and the International Standard Classification of Education (ISCED) and the emerging need for specialists-demographers were the basis for the implementation of the Institute for Demographic Research FCTAS RAS of an initiative project to develop a professional standard “Demographer”, which determines the conditions and opportunities for the development of education in the field of demography. The pool of developers makes it possible to formulate professional knowledge and skills (competencies) of both specific and interdisciplinary nature as much as possible, which determines the possibilities of work of demographers in various fields of science and practice. The professional standard “Demographer” will fully present and systematize uniform requirements for labor activity, as well as formulate requirements for graduates of professional educational organizations. The purpose of the study is to develop a systematic approach to the formation of a new model of human resources in the field of demographic development. The development of the professional standard “Demograf” is considered to be the basic stage in the formation of a modern system of training highly qualified personnel. As a result of the adoption / approval of the professional standard “Demographer”, the possibilities of training specialists-demographers will be revealed both within the framework of the currently implemented areas of education, and in the future, to single out an independent direction of preparation of higher education “Demographer”, to develop educational standards for the bachelor’s and master’s degrees.

Abstract:
Actual problems of the geostrategic territories’ demographic development are remaining a serious challenge for the socio-economic development of the Russian Federation. Demographic contraction, a drop in the birth rate and an outflow of the population lead to depopulation and desertification of key regions and hinder effective development and economic activity. Solving the most complex problems related to issues of spatial development requires the use of new theoretical and methodological approaches to the study of demographic processes in the territorial context, as well as modern tools for spatial analysis. The article deals with the current demographic problems of the geostrategic and border areas of Russian Federation through the prism of spatial demography, a scientific direction that is practically not represented in Russia. The main attention of the authors is paid to the study of definitions and methodological apparatus of spatial demography in foreign science. Differences in the subject of research between population geography, regional demography and spatial demography are considered. The author's definition of spatial demography, its subject and research approaches are formulated. The authors propose an alternative approach to the study of the problems of the demographic development of the territory, using methods of spatial analysis (including cartographic materials and GIS models). The paper presents both the theoretical aspects of the concept of «spatial demography» and the assessment of the current demographic situation of the geostrategic regions of the country based on the proposed methodology and mapping of key trends in the demographic development of Russia's geostrategic territories. The authors paid special attention to the study of demographic trends in the municipalities of the geostrategic territories of Siberia and the Far East in the context of their special geographical and resource potential, as well as the complexity of the demographic situation.

Some four million tropical trees, representing about 10,000 species, are now tagged, provisionally identified and periodically recensused. Some 3,000 species are captured in the six plots within Malesia. These include species rarely collected and many that are now endangered. Easy location of trees for periodic examination for fertile material and detailed ecological data, together with seasoned in-country research teams, provide unique opportunities for research collaboration.

Abstract:
The paper presents an outline of the relationship between anthropology and demography, sometimes depicted as "long, tortured, often ambivalent, and sometimes passionate." Although early anthropologists (primarily British social anthropologists) routinely made use of demographic data, especially in their studies of kinship, the two disciplines gradually drifted away from each other. The re-approachment took place from 1960s, and the last fifteen years saw more intensive cooperation and more insights about possible mutual benefits that could be achieved through combining of methodologies and revision of some theoretical assumptions, primarily through anthropological demography. As summarized by Laura Bernardi and Inge Hutter, "Anthropological demography is a specialty within demography that uses anthropological theory and methods to provide a better understanding of demographic phenomena in current and past populations. Its genesis and ongoing growth lies at the intersection of demography and socio-cultural anthropology and with their efforts to understand population processes: mainly fertility, migration, and mortality. Both disciplines share a common research subject, namely human populations, and they focus on mutually complementary aspects" (2007: 541). In the first part of the paper, the author presents some general considerations, like the one that "demography is one of the best understood and predictable parts of human behavior, even if demographers still find themselves unable to predict accurately when parameters will change in interesting ways, such as the ?the baby boom? or the shift to later childbeanng in the 1970s and 1980s North America" (Howell, 1986: 219). Nancy Howell also noted the importance of demographic anthropology, because, in her words "if we knew, reliably, the birth and death probability schedules of particular populations, we would know a great deal about their size, age composition, growth rate. And with just a little more information we would know a great deal more such as household and family composition, economic organization, social problems, and something of the political structure. It we knew the schedules for populations in general and could correlate the schedules with the causes, genetic or environmental, that produce them, we would know a great deal about the possible range of human social structure" (Howell, 1986: 219). In the second part of the paper, the author discusses several examples of interplay between anthropology and demography. One of them is Patrick Heady?s study of the shift in ritual patterns, which combines elements of some "classical" anthropological topics (Mauss?s theory of gift exchange and L?vi-Strauss?s concept of kinship) with his own field research in the Carnian Alps. "By marrying and raising children, parents participate in a system of gift-exchange in which the gifts in question are human lives, and the parties to the exchange are the kinship groups recognized in the society concerned. Fertility reflects the attitudes of prospective parents to their place in the existing system of reproductive exchange, and the relationships of cooperation and authority which it implies - as well as their confidence in the system?s continuing viability. It is shown that this view is compatible with earlier ideas about self-regulating population systems - and that changing economic circumstances are an important source of discrepancy between existing exchange systems and the attitudes and expectations of prospective parents" (Heady, 2007: 465). The paper concludes with the discussion of the directions in which relationship between these two disciplines can proceed. Some of the epistemological issues are mentioned, as well as a need to apply different theoretical perspectives to better understand demographic behavior (especially in Europe) and to better understand certain cultural components that shape this behavior. In order to achieve this, most of the scholars whose works are discussed in this paper emphasize "the need for a holistic approach to data collection and the added value of triangulating quantitative and qualitative analyses" (Bernardi, Hutter, 2007: 541).

Abstract:
Background: Microsimulation consists of a set of techniques for estimating characteristics and modelling change in populations of individuals. Aims: To demonstrate how microsimulation can be used by demographers who want to undertake population estimates and projections. Data and methods: We use data from the 2011 United Kingdom (UK) Census of population to create a synthetic population by age, sex and ethnic group. Static and dynamic microsimulations and the visualisation of results are undertaken using the statistical package R. The code and data used in the static and dynamic microsimulation are available via a GitHub repository. Results: A synthetic population in 2011 by age, sex and ethnicity was produced for the East London Borough of Tower Hamlets, estimated from two Census tables. A population projection was produced for each of these age, sex and ethnicity groups to 2021. We used a projection of the Bangladeshi population to visualise population growth by Middle-layer Super Output Area (MSOA) and to produce a population pyramid of estimates in 2021. Conclusions: We argue that microsimulation is an adaptable technique which is well suited to demography, for both population estimation and projection. Although our example is applied to the East London Borough of Tower Hamlets, the approach could be readily applied in Australia, or any other country.
