PEREZ RANGEL, Mercedes; RODRIGUEZ RODRIGUEZ, Julio y FERNANDEZ CAIRO, María Elena. Local Synthetic Demographic Indexes, an Approach to the Population-Development Relationship. Rev retos [online]. 2019, vol.13, n.2, pp. 108-129. Epub 15-Sep-2019. ISSN 2306-9155.
The indexes suggested in this paper are local demographic behavior and specific local demographic behavior; the latter was adapted from the former. Their determination is a step in advance within the population-development relationship. Its single value allows for observation of behaviors of demographic and population aging variables, and their effects on municipal development. Index calculation and computer tools like MAPINFO were used for statistical analysis. The aim of this paper is to design synthetic indexes capable of providing information to local governments for decision-making to set up development strategies. The novelty of this research is that no previous national or international reports have been issued about this topic.
