Demographic changes (dropping birth rates, decline in population growth and rapid population aging), their economic implications, and possible policy responses are the subject matter of this volume. It draws on international experience to address these issues, but focuses on the experience of Japan, the country with the world's oldest population.


Marc Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index. Publisher Marketing: Birth rates are dropping to ever-lower levels around the world. Populations are growing more slowly and, in some cases, beginning to decline. Rapid population aging has begun in the West and parts of Asia and is just over the horizon elsewhere. The demographic changes, their economic implications, and possible policy responses are the subject matter of this volume. What will be the effects on economic performance? How can couples be encouraged to marry and have children? Can educational reform lead to a more productive young labor force helping to offset their meager numbers? Can labor market reform extend the work life of older workers without damaging the interests of others? How should the social safety net that supports the elderly evolve in ways that are both fair and sustainable? The papers in this volume draw on international experience to address these issues, but emphasize the experience of Japan the country with the worlds oldest population.

Contributor Bio:  Mason, Andrew Andrew Mason is Professor of Economics at the University of Hawaii at Manoa and Senior Fellow at the East-West Center. His most recent book is Sharing the Wealth (with Georges Tapinos).
