Timebomb. When Ageing Explodes wer. angielska - Giles Merritt - książka
Producent: Bristol University Press
The increasing longevity of the European population is likened to a timebomb, posing a significant threat to society if left unaddressed. While celebrating longer life expectancies, many fail to consider the ensuing implications. In the upcoming two decades, the very fabric of European societies is at risk unless proactive measures are taken to mitigate the challenges posed by an aging population. Current political and economic systems, built around shorter lifespans, face potential collapse due to these demographic shifts. With the over-60 demographic swelling from a quarter to a third of the population, political upheaval and the economic strain on younger generations are imminent. Millennials and Gen Z are already burdened by the escalating costs of pensions and healthcare for the elderly while coping with fewer resources and opportunities. Merritt, an experienced observer of European affairs, highlights demographic trends long neglected by policymakers and underscores the urgent need for reform. This book is an indispensable resource for anyone invested in Europe's future, clearly outlining the critical political decisions necessary to prevent the continent from succumbing to the pressures of aging.
