Current demographic trends raise new questions, challenges and
controversies. Comparing demographic trends in Europe and the
NAME-region (North Africa and the Middle East), this book
demonstrates how population change interacts with changing economic
landscapes, social distinctions and political realities. A variety
of drivers contribute to demographic change in the various regions
and countries considered, such as family policies, economic
realities, the impact of educational differentials and the
attitudes towards marriage. On the macro-level the new trends are
restructuring the age composition of populations and are reshaping
the life courses of individuals and families. In turn, the impact
demographic forces have on the organisation of labour markets, on
fiscal policies, on the care of the elderly, on migration flows and
on political changes can be quite radical. The volume provides food
for thought for those who are looking for a nuanced perspective on
the background and future perspectives of demographic developments
in Europe, for a discussion of recent demographic and political
realities in the NAME countries, and for those who analyse the
effects of contrasting demographic regimes on migration flows to
and migration politics in Europe. Chapter 1 of this book is freely
