Recent studies show that almost all industrial countries have
experienced dramatic decreases in both fertility and mortality
rates. This situation has led to aging societies with economies
that suffer from both a decline in the working population and a
rise in fiscal deficits linked to increased government spending.
East Asia exemplifies these trends, and this volume offers an
in-depth look at how long-term demographic transitions have taken
shape there and how they have affected the economy in the region.
"The Economic Consequences of Demographic Change in East Asia"
assembles a group of experts to explore such topics as comparative
demographic change, population aging, the rising cost of health
care, and specific policy concerns in individual countries. The
volume provides an overview of economic growth in East Asia as well
as more specific studies on Japan, Korea, China, and Hong Kong.
Offering important insights into the causes and consequences of
this transition, this book will benefit students, researchers, and
policy makers focused on East Asia, as well as anyone concerned
with similar trends elsewhere in the world.
