De demografische veranderingen hebben het potentieel om de bestaande wereldorde overhoop te gooien, waarschuwt de Amerikaanse demograaf Richard Jackson. 'Alle waarschuwingslampjes staan op rood. Voor China en Rusland is het nu het moment om te handelen, nu ze nog in staat zijn om de gevestigde orde uit te dagen.'
The world is at a startling demographic milestone. Sometime soon, the global fertility rate will drop below the point needed to keep population constant. It may have already happened. Fertility is falling almost everywhere, for women across all levels of income, education and labor-force participation. The falling birthrates come with huge implications for the way people live, how economies grow and the standings of the world’s superpowers.
La inmigración no puede revertir el envejecimiento de la población estadounidense, pero sí puede tener un gran impacto en la tasa de crecimiento de la población en edad de trabajar, según un estudio divulgado hoy.
America’s weak population growth, already held back by a decadelong fertility slump, is dropping closer to zero because of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Call it baby bust and oldster boom — two trends that signal a demographic transformation without precedent in human history. In much of the world, declining birth rates and longer life spans are combining to create a phenomenon demographers call global aging. It brings both problems and opportunities that are hard to fathom and require rethinking the way societies are organized and economies are run.
Demographics is destiny. For decades, America has enjoyed the economic and geopolitical fruits of its high birth rate. Between 1990 and 2010, fertility levels in the US were higher than the average for any developed country with the exception of Israel, Iceland and New Zealand. So what does it mean that the US birth rate is on track to plunge below the recent trend rate of Europe?

It also poses a challenge to public policymakers and society as a whole regarding the need to create new and improved ways to boost the inclusion of older persons in the labor market.
