The investigation presented in the article proves that Germany still remains divided into two distinct parts from the point of view of demography. Unlike the Western part, East Germany is characterized by a considerably higher burden index, ageing index, and the dynamics of the ageing process. In the former lands of the Federal Republic of Germany the ageing process is signifi- cantly slowed down by such factors as the domestic influx of East Germany immigrants.The analyses presented in this article attempt to depict the ageing process of Germans on the turn of the 20th and 218t century. However, the concluding remarks try to cast a new light on the demography in the Federal Republic of Germany after the unification of the Western and Eastern States, and also try to challenge stereotypes fossilized by earlier studies. What is morę, it is difficult to predict the futurę of the country with nearly 80 million inhabitants. What will come will probably be decided by the level of birthrate, hence, by the number of the young within the population, and the number of the young when set against the cohort of the post-war baby boom, who are now Crossing the border age of 65. In addition, it is also very difficult to predict if demographic shifts in Germany will still be decided by foreign and domestic immigrants, and if the birth ratę among native Germans will finally increase.

To sum up, it is essential to consider that both in Germany, as well as in many other developed countries, the number of those working in service sector is continually increasing. From the conducted research it can be concluded that in large German cities the process of servicization measured by the number of the employed in services is very intense, and in cities that were connected with production activities there was a turn towards developing the service sector, especially the services of the higher order. The increase in the importance of this sector is undoubtedly connected with a growing demand for different services, starting from satisfying basie needs to specialized services such as banking, financial servicing, education, IT, etc.The level of servicization in large German cities shows a considerable spa- tial differentiation. The distinction between the western and eastern parts of Germany is still well visible. Till now, in the former East Germany, there has been a lower share of those employed in market services than in the west Lander; it applies both to the number of the working in services to the overall working force, as well as to the intensity of services, that is the number of those working in services per 1000 inhabitants. It seems though that these differences will be decreasing because in the east Lander there are huge socio- economic changes and the process of servicization is proceeding very intensely, gaining a new ąuality.Finally, it should be underlined that it is not a complex view on the servici- zation process in Germany and the paper is only a preliminary inąuiry before further research into the subject is undertaken.
