Abstract
The dynamics of the birthrate in Russia and the Komi Republic in the 2000s are revealed. Changes in the structure of natality based on the mother’s age, birth order, and marital status are identified. Questions of family planning, abortion rates, neonatal health, and infant mortality are examined. Positive trends in increased birth rates are documented, even in conditions of the declining age structure of women of fertile age. This is in part due to children that were earlier postponed by senior generations, raising the number of children in families. The role of demographic policy in raising the intensity of natality and the level of the reproductive intentions of the population is assessed. Directions for its improvement are suggested.
