Demographics, public spending and social programs

Labour

Author: Golini, A.
Year: 1998
Type: Journal Article

Abstract:

Examines the relationship among demographic trends, public spending, & social programs in Italy. The population of Italy is characterized by a very low fertility rate (in the 1990s, 1.1-1.3 children per woman, one of the lowest in the world) & very rapid aging (Italy was the first country in which people ages 60+ outnumbered people under age 20). These trends require continuous & deep changes in the organization of society & in public services to avoid an increasing imbalance between demand & supply. They also require new social policies based on equality, efficiency, & rationality.
