On Optimization of Demographic and Migration Policies in a Socio-Economic Growth Model

The paper deals with a socio-economic model of planned national and regional development. The development is regarded as a result of accumulation of production factors (i.e. labour, capital, etc.), which are controlled by the decision center in such a way that the consumption per head allocated among different population groups (in preworking, working, post working age) in the form of salaries, stipends, allowances for families with many children, pensions for the retired, etc., is maximum, i.e., that a given utility function attains maximum. The impact of the consumption allocation on fertility is investigated. The results obtained are used for determining the optimum demographic and migration policies for the allocation of labour force in regional systems
