Abstract
This study examines the demographic transformation in Turkey from the perspective of demographic transition theory. Although the effects of demographic changes are not noticeable today, they contain extremely important and noteworthy processes in terms of producing large and cumulative results affecting the future of societies in the medium and long term. For this reason, the stages of demographic transformation in Turkey were first addressed and the social problems caused by these demographic transformations were examined in the light of statistical data. In this context, it was determined that four basic problem areas emerged as a result of the demographic transformation. These problem areas are aging and old age, changes in marriage practices and family institutions, transformations in the field of youth policies and adaptation problems in the axis of migration and urbanization. Changes in all these basic problem areas particularly affect the family institution and other social areas through the family institution, and together with the phenomenon of migration and the change in urban life, this demographic transformation offers various opportunities and threats in the medium and long term.
