A Presence More and More Visibile – The Very Small Villages from the Depression of Beius, Romania
Journal Title: GeoJournal of Tourism and Geosites - Year 2017, Vol 20, Issue 2
Abstract
The settlements with very small demographic dimensions from the coverage of the Depression of Beius register a consistent numerical increase in the period 1900-2011, which implies automatically also an increase of their number of population. The major causes consist of the presence of the phenomenon of depopulation from this depression area, the excessive administrative division in some cases, the insulated position in the administrative units in which are included also the morphological and morphometric characteristics of the relief. The tendencies observed in the present are, on one part, of perpetuation of this ascendant trend regarding the number of very small villages, and on the other side, is envisioned the disappearance in the close future of at least two such settlements, as a consequence of the absence of a stable population inside them. As possible solutions we can propose an agglomeration of some villages from some administrative units, but is a solution of form, not of fund, in the conditions in which the demographic rebound is impossible to be stopped, at least in the present moment.
