국제비교를 통해 바라본 한국의 장래인구추계 현황과 전망 Current Status and Future Challenges of the National Population Projection in South Korea Concerning Super-Low Fertility Patterns원문보기
한국사회가 최근 초저출산율이 지속되고, 사망율이 괄목할 만큼 개선되면서 장래인구 추계는 새로운 도전을 받고 있다. 이 연구는 장래 인구를 보다 정확한 예측하고, 양질의 정보를 제공하기 위한 방안을 한국의 경우를 중심으로 여타 저출산 국가들과 비교연구를 통해 논의하였다. 구체적으로 이 연구는 1) 통계청이 실시한 2009년도 인구추계를 2006년도 공식 인구추계와 비교분석 하였고, 2) 한국의 인구추계방식을 다른 나라의 경우와 비교 분석하였다. 비교에는 어떤 기관이 인구추계를 담당하는지, 얼마나 먼 장래까지 추계 하는지, 얼마나 자주 행해지는지, 그리고 추계에 사용되는 출산, 사망, 이주에 관련된 가정과 시나리오의 수를 고려하였다. 3) 향후 50년간장래인구를 확률적 인구추계 방식을 도입하여 예측해 보았다. 4) 마지막으로 2011년 장래인구추계에 사용될 시나리오를 살펴보았다. 이러한 논의를 바탕으로 이 연구는, 장래인구추계의 정확성을 높이기 위해서 인구추계를 좀더 자주 실시할 것과, 단기와 장기추계의 구분, 시나리오 수를 기존 네 가지에서 더 늘릴 것을 제안하였다. 또한 기준인구 산정에 있어 국내 체류중인 외국인 인구를 고려할 것과 확률적 인구추계 방식도 도입할 것을 제안하였다.

South Korea has experienced a rapid fertility decline and notable mortality improvement. As the drop in TFR was quicker and greater in terms of tempo and magnitude, it cast a new challenge of population projection - how to improve the forecasting accuracy in the country with a super-low fertility pattern. This study begin with the current status of the national population projection as implemented by Statistics Korea by comparing the 2009 interim projection with the 2006 official national population projection. Secondly, this study compare the population projection system including projection agencies, projection horizons, projection intervals, the number of projection scenarios, and the number of assumptions on fertility, mortality and international migration among super-low fertility countries. Thirdly we illustrate a stochastic population projection for Korea by transforming the population rates into one parameter series. Finally we describe the future challenges of the national population projection, and propose the projection scenarios for the 2011 official population projection. To enhance the accuracy, we suggest that Statistics Korea should update population projections more frequently or distinguish them into short-term and long-term projections. Adding more than four projection scenarios including additional types of "low-variant"fertility could show a variety of future changes. We also expect Statistics Korea topay more attention to the determination of a base population that should include both national and non-national populations. Finally we hope that Statistics Korea will find a wise way to incorporate the ideas underlying the system of stochastic population projection as part of the official national population projection.

가설 설정
This technique -though common practice - suffers mainly from two shortcomings: First, it does not provide information on the probability of a certain projection scenario. Second, modeling uncertainty by means of different projection scenarios is necessarily inconsistent.
제안 방법
According to our review, the projection methods are essentially the same, namely, the cohort component method. This method projects future populations by calculating the annual changes due to the aging of individuals from each age bracket for each component (birth, death, and international migration). As for the preexisting individuals, the future population is calculated by subtracting the number of deaths due to aging and international migration.
대상 데이터
The intervals of national population projections are varied. Projections are produced once every year in Austria, Denmark, Norway (since 2009), and Sweden; once every 2-3 years in Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United Nations, and the European Union, and once every 5 years in the rest of the selected countries. The United States produces the official national population projections once every ten years, but the interim projections once every 2 years to process it as an input data for the projection of the social security funding requirement.
후속연구
Finally, we hope that Statistics Korea will find wise ways to incorporate the ideas underlying the system of stochastic population projection as part of the official national population projection. One merit of the stochastic population projection model is to use it as a framework for assessing the value of demographic sensitivity tests with various "pronatalist" population policy models.
