Demographic safety in the conditions of the fourth revolution

Abstract

The provisions of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, which may affect the demographic security of the country, are considered. For Ukraine, which is a source of low-cost labor, the problem of demographic security is considered through aspects of demographic and educational criteria. The idea that the parameters of changes in the demographic security of the country are caused by the dynamics of the crude birth rate, death rate, natural increase, migration, and education level is substantiated. Based on the methodology proposed by the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade of Ukraine, demographic security studies have been conducted for the country as a whole. It has been established that the socioeconomic and demographic development of certain regions of Ukraine is not homogeneous, so it requires radical decisions at the local and national levels.
