| Annotation | A report from the National Academy on an Aging Society - "Demography is not dead" - uses data from a variety of sources to examine past and anticipated population trends. The report presents compelling evidence to show that while the ageing of society poses a significant challenge, this challenge can be met with a reasoned set of policy choices. Economic growth, changes in individual behaviour, and public policies are key factors that will determine how an ageing society will affect future government spending. This edition of the Public Policy and Aging Report presents highlights from that report. (RH). |
