Abstract

The population of Brazil has undergone important demographic changes in the last decades. These were ignored by those in charge of public policies. This article describes these changes- decrease in the annual volume of births, aging of the population, decrease in family size, and in the population growth of large cities, and increasing of medium-sized cities in the country side- and discusses their effects on the demand of public services.
