Document
This document highlights some of the emerging issues in policy-relevant population research in light of the fundamental demographic developments of our times. It sets an agenda of the most urgent topics and most exciting approaches in the field of policy-relevant population studies. The four sections of the document introduce and elaborate on main thematic fields of demographic research. In these, we handle the most relevant topics and enquiries on population dynamics that impact mar­kets, society, and policies today and in the near future.

Vom Baby-Boom zum Großeltern-Boom
In allen europäischen Staaten altert die Bevölkerung, dies aber mit beträchtlichen Unterschieden hinsichtlich Ausmaß, Geschwindigkeit und Timing. Auf der Grundlage von Eurostat-Prognosen aus dem Jahr 2010 erläutert Giampaolo Lanzieri, Leiter der Eurostat-Abteilung Demografie, Zensus und Prognosen, staatenspezifische Unterschiede innerhalb Europas.

Vom Baby-Boom zum Großeltern-Boom
The populations of all European countries are ageing but with substantial differences in magnitude, speed and timing. Building upon Eurostat projections from 2010 Giampaolo Lanzieri, head of Eurostats Section Demography, Census and Projections, elucidates cross-country differences within Europe. The author concludes that while some Nordic and Western European countries may have already experienced the climax of the ageing process, others, mainly situated in Southern and Eastern Europe, may soon need to deal with the consequences of the rapidly increasing proportion of older people.
