Nearly all countries in the world are experiencing an aging of
their populations due to declining fertility rates and rising
longevity. Aging has been the subject of much discussion in the
last decade, often expressed in alarmist language. On Global Aging
presents a more optimistic look on the effects of aging on the
economy. Nonetheless aging will pose major policy challenges on the
well functioning of the economy and the society as a whole.
The book describes and analyses the effects of population aging on
social and economic issues, labour and financial markets, pension
and health care expenditures and public finance, and the welfare of
people. It surveys also the policy measures in the face of aging to
secure the resource base. They are mainly aimed at increasing
labour force participation and above all at stimulating
productivity growth. The book is a valuable resource for
practitioners and policy makers and the wider academic community,
economists, social scientists, gerontologists and others.
