Demographic Dilemmas

Henk R. Randau and Olga Medinskaya

Chapter 15 in China Business 2.0, 2015, pp 75-77 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract China’s demographics have been largely influenced by the One-child Policy which slowed China’s population boom but also caused a gender imbalance through selective abortions. Today, China is facing the problems of an aging society, as life expectancy increases and birth-rates decrease. This will change the dynamics of China’s workforce and may challenge the competitiveness of their future economy.
