Abstract
The demographic transition means the transition from a traditional mode of demographic balance with high mortality and fertility, to a different mode of balance (modern) with low mortality and fertility throughout the course of the modernization of demographic processes. The demographic transition is associated with changing the indicators of population reproduction and the demographic balance regime. It is a process that the population of every country goes through. What is the demographic transition model based on historical stages? What are the global population trends? What are the characteristics of the demographic transition in Albania? The methods used in this manuscript are those of analysis, synthesis, comparison, etc. The demographic transition model has a global historical-geographical analysis value as it provides a global population assessment trend. The global population trend is towards the phenomenon of aging through decline or birth control and includes both central and semi-central countries. The analysis of the overpopulation in the territory has in essence the interventions by means of different measures to regulate the demographic regimes in function of the well-being of the population. In Albania, the transition has been accompanied by a large drop in births and high emigration. The time has come for this transition to be treated with priority as it affects the country’s economy and its perspective.
