Chrono-Spatial Discordances in the Total Balance Dynamics of the Population of Vrancea County

Abstract

The dynamics of the demographic system of Vrancea County is the result of the
combined action of a plurality of elements of diverse nature, among which historical, political,
economic and demographic factors play the primordial role. The analysis of the total balance of the
population of Vrancea County at the level of the basic administrative units proves the antithetical
relationships between towns and villages on the one hand, between the two political and economic tried
out patterns on the other, revealing specific aspects such as: resistance or lack of demographic vigour,
propension for emigration or, on the contrary, a polarization potential able to generate and focus
endodynamic migration flows.
