title: [The 1980s:  demographic trends reversed].
abstract: Some recent changes in the spatial distribution of the population of Switzerland are analyzed.  The authors suggest that "a new equilibrium is taking shape within the repartition of the Swiss population....Especially the interregional migration flows do not seem to have spatial preferences any longer, if we consider the total figures and not their demographic and socio-economic structure.  The dichotomy center-periphery is slowing down, but the explanation of the pattern of population distribution lies in an analysis of micro-processus which seems to show a deep change; the population segregation within agglomerations is growing."
