Experts from both countries examine a broad range of issues, from demographic change, social ageing, family policies, family formation, work-life balance, domestic and international migration to business perspectives and labour market issues. Focussed on Japan and Germany, two highly developed countries with extremely low fertility, the chapters of this volume also refer to several other countries for comparison. In the absence of war, famine and pandemics, rapid population decline is a new phenomenon. Japan and Germany are struggling with this reality, but many other countries will follow their example.International comparative social studies ;v. 25.Demographic transitionJapanDemographic transitionGermanyPopulation agingJapanPopulation agingGermanyJapanPopulationGermanyPopulationDemographic transitionDemographic transitionPopulation agingPopulation aging304.620943Coulmas Florian131523Lützeler Ralph270231MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910781507303321Imploding populations in Japan and Germany3847344UNINA
