The aim of this thesis is to compare the fertility differentials between fixed date immigrants and non-migrants in the 12 meso regions of Minas Gerais, in the periods 1986-1991 and 1995-2000, and to discuss the probable effects of the womens migration in reproductive ages on the process of demographic transition in the state. The Brasss Method was used to correct the levels of fertility of fixed date immigrants and non-migrants in both periods. In addition, the main flows of immigrants in reproductive ages, interstates and among meso regions, were presented for each meso region of Minas Gerais. The data used in the estimations were collected in the Brazilian demographic census of 1991 and 2000.The results of the study suggest that there is relevant difference between the fertility of fixed date immigrant and non-migrant women resident in all of the 12 meso regions of Minas Gerais for the analyzed periods. This fact could have contributed to retard the demographic transition in all meso regions of the state, compared with the speed that this process would have in the absence of migration. Its important to note that the final effect of womens migration in reproductive age on the speed of the demographic transition process depends, likewise, on the proportion of women emigrants at the same ages in the resident population, and on the fertility of these women, facts that should be better investigated in future researches.
