Marriage market imbalances have been linked to social instability, crime, and reduced welfare in both developing and developed countries. We revisit this issue in the context of Sub-Saharan Africa, where high population growth and the prevalence of polygyny shape partner availability in...

This study presents a comprehensive methodological approach to construct a composite index of demographic ageing, with a particular focus on Romania in comparison to the other 26 Member States of the European Union (EU). Drawing on data from 2000 to 2022, the research integrates multiple...

The modern macroeconomic literature has documented the importance of taking into account heterogene- ity across different groups in society when studying the impact of monetary policy on the economy. This is important because monetary policy affects different people differently and because the...

Die Erfassung der Einwanderungsgeschichte im Zensus 2022 in Deutschland basiert erstmals vollständig auf Registerdaten. Dieser Ansatz ermöglicht eine kontinuierliche Erhebung ohne die Bevölkerung zu befragen. Dabei zeigte sich, dass die Registerdaten für die Typisierung der...

In the face of rapid demographic transitions, Sub-Saharan African countries stand at a critical juncture where the potential for harnessing a demographic dividend to fuel economic growth is immense. This demographic shift presents both challenges and opportunities, with the right investments in...

The primary objective of this paper is to explore the determinants of the level of, and trends over time in, Japan's household saving rate, with emphasis on the impact of the age structure of the population, and to make projections about future trends therein. The paper finds that Japan's...

This paper aims to facilitate a more nuanced understanding of regional disparities in the population age structure at a local scale by applying a recent method for visualizing these disparities.

Numerous recent empirical studies underscore the adverse impacts of an aging population on economic growth. This could stem from reduced labor force participation and productivity among older workers, or the potential for aging to result in an imbalance between savings and desired investment,...

The interplay between accessibility and population change is a relatively new subject in Italian academic research. Along with social and economic factors such as regional economic prosperity, the ease of movement inside and outside an area can play a pivotal role in shaping population dynamics....

This study examines the macroeconomic and welfare effects of the child benefit, using a general equilibrium overlapping generations model incorporating fertility choices. The model is calibrated to the Japanese economy and produces the benefit elasticity of fertility in line with the empirical...

We study optimal team design (homogenous vs. diverse assignment) and explicit contracting in a setting with multiple agents who have possibly diverse demographic characteristics captured by their discount factors. When the agents have relatively small discount factors, the contract is designed...

Based on a sample of 126 countries over the period of 1970 to 2019 and 5-year nonoverlapping growth regressions, this study has revealed the existence of an inverted U-shaped aging population Kuznets curve. The threshold levels below (above) which aging population potentially promotes (hampers)...

This paper argues that population age structure plays a significant role alongside institutional, technological, political, and cultural factors when it comes to explaining shifts in urban, regional and national economic development. The paper demonstrates how demographic transitions lead to...

The aging of the global population is in the headlines following a report that China's population fell as deaths surpassed births. Pundits worry that a declining Chinese workforce means trouble for other economies that have come to rely on China's exports. France is pushing through an increase...
