SOCIO-DEMOGRAPHIC DEVELOPMENT OF KYZYL IN 1940s-1960-s
The article presents the results of the historical and demographic analysis of Kyzyl in the 1940s-1960s. Based on statistical compilations, population censuses and archival sources, an attempt was made to study population dynamics, gender and age structure, birth rate and mortality rates of the residents of the capital of Tuva. Since the prerequisites of modern demographic problems were laid in the Soviet past, the author, identifying the degree of influence of major political and socio-economic processes on the dynamics of quality of life, tried to assess the socioeconomic and demographic development of the capital of Tuva, Kyzyl. As the main historical sources were selected materials of the State Archive of the Republic of Tyva, various statistical compendiums and resolutions of the Soviet leadership regarding the Tuva Autonomous Region.
