AGEING IN POST-INDUSTRIAL SOCIETY: TRENDS AND TRAJECTORIES
Journal Title: Journal of Globalization Studies - Year 2014, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
This paper aims at examining a global question on the power of population ageing in the twenty-first century, particularly the degree to which population ageing is gradually becoming a real challenge to many geographical regions of the world. The global ageing issues are critically analyzed by illustrating valuable scientific inputs including statistical data. A holistic approach has been utilized to understand and resolve the complexities of future ageing society. Finally, suggestions are made on the basis of social and economic implications globally.
