Abstract: Abstract In Chapters 1–3 we have already discussed the influence of demographic processes on the life cycle in general and pension systems in particular. Here we continue the demographic analysis as a basis for macro-analysis of the pension system. We first introduce the notion of stationary and stable populations, then go on to outline actual demographic processes. Hinde (1998) is an excellent textbook on demography, Keyfitz-Beekman (1984) is an unequaled study of problems and solutions on the subject, while Hablicsek (1999) and Hablicsek et al. (2000) give good accounts of Hungarian demographic issues. For the sake of simplicity, we generally adhere to unisex populations but, for the differing male and female survival curves, see Figure 2.1.
