The subject
of research of this work is migration from BiH from the end of the 20th
century until today. The aim of the study is to analyze the consequences of
total migration and other demographic losses in BiH, that have reached the
highest percent of migration during the nineties of the20th century
in Europe after the Second World War. The results of the research show that
migration demographic losses were approximately 25% of nowadays population
number in BiH. The long-term effects of emigration came to the fore. By
emigration of the most vital age groups has led to the reduction of fertile
cohorts, which results in a decrease in birth, increase in mortality rates and population
aging. In the first decade of this century, there was a negative birth rate.
Several factors have had influence to the biological (natural) depopulation and
the first one was emigration. Continuous and intense emigration was one of the
main cause why BiH was in the group of European countries with expressed
population aging. After the 20th century where population of BiH was
doubled, 21st century was marked by the total depopulation. Among
various factors that have an influence to the demographic perspective of BiH,
the most important is negative migration balance. The social impact of
migration in BiH is visible and multidimensional. War and post-war changes have
led to the sensibility of many groups to economical and political turmoil that
resulted in lag in the overall development.
