Summary/Abstract: The paper deals with the major population challenges of contemporary Serbia. Their consequences are socially farreaching and complex, and due to the demographic inertia, they are not only long term but will have a strong, perceived impact onto future generations, social system and structure, economy and culture. However, this demographic dynamics is neither a new one nor it is specific for Serbia only. But in the case of Serbia it is the combination of the processes, previously created and recent ones, which produce a particular ’de-development’, which on the other hand also characterises other European countries of semiperiphery.
