China, the world's most populous nation, will enter a period of rapid aging very shortly that will redefine that country. Between 2010 and 2040, the portion of people 65 and older will rise from around 7% to between 25 and 30% of the population. As China ages, can it retain the youthful dynamism now driving it? China, the world's most populous nation, will enter a period of rapid aging very shortly that will redefine that country. Between 2010 and 2040, the number of people 65 and older will rise from around 7% to between 25 and 30% of the population. As China ages, can it retain the youthful dynamism now driving it? This book is an effort to try to capture the broad outlines of the significant economic, market, social, and demographic factors that will shape the future of China and the role that aging will play in the whole mix of influences. Aging in developed societies and economies has been widely studied. In such nations as Japan, Germany, Italy, and Spain, for example, we know that as populations age, their societies decline, leaving fewer younger workers to support the growing number of people who will become dependent on costly health care systems, or whose basic needs, such as food and shelter, will need to be subsidized. But less work has been done in assessing the potential impact of aging in developing countries, where the majority of people may be working poor, not middle class—as in the case of China. As China restructures its economy, the old benefits packages previously available to urban workers (and not rural workers) are being replaced by a patchwork of benefits across a wide range of enterprises.

Because of demographic changes, the Social Security system in the United States will face financial challenges in the near future. Declining fertility rates and increasing life expectancies are causing the U.S. population to age. Today, 12 percent of the total population is aged 65 or older, but by 2080 it will be 23 percent. At the same time, the working-age population will shrink from 60 percent to a projected 54 percent. Consequently, the Social Security system is experiencing a declining worker-to-beneficiary ratio, which will fall from 3.3 in 2005 to 2.1 in 2040 (the year in which the Social Security trust fund is projected to be exhausted). This article examines the demographic challenge of an aging population on the U.S. Social Security system and the well-being of the elderly. It describes policy implications and some potential policy solutions to this challenge.

Mali has demographic characteristics similar to most sub-Saharan African countries, except for those of Southern Africa. The population of Mali is very young: in 1998, 46.3 percent of the population was under 15 years of age. Whereas mortality, especially infant and child mortality, has decreased rapidly, fertility has remained high over the past decades, equaling 6.6 children per woman on average. As a result, the rate of demographic growth has increased significantly over the last decades. Today, the natural population growth rate is estimated at 3.3 percent per year (it will take 21 years for the population to double). International migration somewhat slows down this growth, and the net population growth rate is estimated at 3 percent per year, which leads to a doubling of the population in 23 years. This study is presented in three chapters. The first chapter shows the present situation of the population of Mali and its prospects for the future. This chapter evaluates available demographic data, analyzes the size, geographic distribution as well as the structure and rate of growth of the population, including international migrations. It also presents population projections for the years 2005 to 2035, based on slow or rapid fertility decline scenarios. Chapter two is dedicated to the future implications of these demographic trends. It first addresses the development of human capital (demographic investment), especially in education and health. It then examines the macro-economic consequences of demographic growth for Mali. Finally, it briefly analyzes other consequences of the high population growth, in terms of increasing population density, agriculture, nutrition, urbanization, environmental degradation, and maternal and child health. The last chapter assesses the population policies in Mali and what is needed to set into motion a decline in fertility and presents practical recommendations.

This paper outlines some of the economic challenges facing the United States due to demographic change--focusing specifically on Social Security; economic growth; and federal, state, and local budgets--and highlights the role immigration can play in easing these strains. Part I outlines population and fertility trends, highlighting the differences in population growth by foreign- and native-born individuals; Part II looks at the demographic challenges facing Social Security and how immigration contributes to the system's solvency by increasing the worker-to-beneficiary ratio; Part III analyzes economic growth in the context of an aging population and identifies the potential for immigration to promote economic growth; and Part IV looks at the effects of an aging population on the federal debt, as well as the effect of immigration on federal, state, and local budgets. While current immigration levels are helping to ease these economic challenges, reforms to the immigration system could help address America's profound demographic challenge.
