Choiniere Robert y Robitaille Norbert. — La fecundidad de la poblacion inuit de nuevo Quebec a partir de 1931 : el paso de una fecundidad natural a una fecundidad controlada El estudio de la evolucion reciente de la fecundidad de la poblacion inuit de nuevo Quebec, illustra el paso de una fecundidad natural a una fecundidad controlada. Esta evolucion se adapta a la teoria de la transition demografica, con una segunda fase caracte- rizada por una disminucion de la fecundidad, provocada por diversos factores asociados al proceso de desarrollo. Sin embargo, el mejoramiento de la condiciones sanitarias y los cambios socio-economicos en la comunidad Inuit, contribuyeron, en una primera etapa, a aumentar su fecundidad. Este aumento fue seguido por una disminucion importante y la fecundidad paso de 8,1 hijos por mujer (indice sintetico de fecundidad) en 1861 a 4,3 en 1981. La fecundidad de los Inuit continua siendo elevada y es poco probable que alcance, a corto o mediano plazo, los niveles observados, en 1986, para el conjunto de la poblacion de Quebec, es decir : 1,4 hijos por mujer.

The fertility of the Inuit of Northern Quebec went through many changes during the last fifty years. We observe, at first, a decline during the thirties followed by a recovery, in the early forties, stopped momentarily between 1946 and 1956. The fertility reached a summit around 1961 to drop sharply afterwards. In spite of this important decrease, the fertility of the Inuit remains much higher than the generations replacement level. We will try to relate these fluctuations in the Northern Quebec Inuit fertility to the various events that influenced the recent history of this population such as starvations, epidemics, settling process, health improvements and socio‐economic changes.

In the 1981 Census, 25,390 people reported themselves to be of Inuit origin. This communication investigates the demographic future of this group until 2001. After presenting the geographic distribution, the recent evolution and the age structure, hypotheses about fertility, mortality and migration are stated. Then, the main results of the projection are presented.
