One of the most important political and economic challenges facing
Europe and elsewhere is the ageing of societies. Must ageing
populations create conflict between generations and crisis for
health systems? Our answer is no. The problem is not so much
demographic change as the political and policy challenge of
creating fair, sustainable and effective policies for people of all
ages. This book, based on a large European Observatory study, uses
new evidence to challenge some of the myths surrounding ageing and
its effects on economies and health systems. Cataclysmic views of
population ageing are often based on stereotypes and anecdotes
unsupported by evidence. How we address ageing societies is a
choice. Societies can choose policies that benefit people of all
ages, promoting equity both within and between generations, and
political coalitions can be built to support such policies. This
title is available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.
