ABSTRACT

Global challenges also gain meaning in the context of population. One of the most important elements in contemporary discourse about the world is reflection on development. An important characteristic of contemporary international migration is its feminization. Many contemporary analyses of demographic trends draw on Malthusian theory. Demographic transition is the process of change in population reproduction associated with the modernization of societies. Changes in world population can be described using the concept of demographic transition developed in the 1930s by the institute of population research at Princeton University in the United States. Tourism is one of the fastest developing areas of the modern global economy. In the high variant, all the world's continents will have higher populations in 2100, and in the medium variant only Europe will have seen a numerical reduction, whereas the low variant foresees that Europe will be joined by Asia and the entire western hemisphere.
