Combien d'années vous reste-t-il à vivre ? Pour le savoir, il vous suffit de vous reporter à une " table de mortalité ", c'est-à-dire à un tableau de chiffres exprimant la loi de mortalité des populations d'aujourd'hui. Cette table vous dira par exemple que, si vous êtes né en France en 1968 et de sexe féminin, votre espérance de vie était, le jour de votre naissance, de près de 75 ans, et, lorsque vous aviez 30 ans (en 1998), elle était encore de 53 ans. Mais ces données statistiques recèlent bien des paradoxes que, le premier objectif de ce livre est d'éclairer. La très forte augmentation, depuis deux siècles, de l'espérance de vie dans les pays les plus développés nous permet d'être beaucoup plus nombreux à atteindre des âges élevés. La pyramide des âges s'en ressent : la population vieillit. Non seulement les attitudes à l'égard de la vie et de la mort se transforment, mais une véritable " gestion des âges " devient nécessaire. Les relations entre les générations se modifient en profondeur et affectent toute la dynamique des sociétés, des solidarités effectives ou possibles à la dépendance économique mais aussi aux questions éthiques : quel est le coût économique de l'allongement de la durée de vie et comment résoudre les problèmes qu'il pose, si la quantité de vie en plus se traduit par une dégradation de sa qualité ? C'est une réflexion sur les liens entre l'histoire de l'individu, celle de sa génération et celle de la société que propose ce livre.

This open access book provides a comprehensive European perspective on the concept of ageism, its origins, the manifestation and consequences of ageism, as well as ways to respond to and research ageism. The book represents a collaborative effort of researchers from over 20 countries and a variety of disciplines, including, psychology, sociology, gerontology, geriatrics, pharmacology, law, geography, design, engineering, policy and media studies. The contributors have collaborated to produce a truly stimulating and educating book on ageism which brings a clear overview of the state of the art in the field. The book serves as a catalyst to generate research, policy and public interest in the field of ageism and to reconstruct the image of old age and will be of interest to researchers and students in gerontology and geriatrics. This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license.

This paper examines the economic impact of international remittances on countries and households in the developing world. To analyze the country-level impact of remittances, the paper estimates an econometric model based on a new data set of 115 developing countries. Results suggest that countries located close to a major remittance-sending region (like the United States, OECD-Europe) are more likely to receive international remittances, and that while the level of poverty in a country has no statistical effect on the amount of remittances received, for those countries which are fortunate enough to receive remittances, these resource flows do tend to reduce the level and depth of poverty. At the household level, a review of findings from recent research suggest that households receiving international remittances spend less at the margin on consumption goods-like food-and more on investment goods-like education and housing. Households receiving international remittances also tend to invest more in entrepreneurial activities.

The number of young people is reaching unprecedented levels in most developing countries. In many countries, especially in East Asia and Latin America, youth populations are at or near their peak, and will decline in coming decades. In other countries, especially in Africa and South Asia, youth populations will continue growing for several decades. From an economic perspective, absolute numbers may be less important than the growth rate or relative size of youth cohorts. Growth rates and the ratio of youth to working-age population reached a peak in the 1970s or 1980s in most developing countries. The worst economic pressures of youth demography may have already occurred in many countries, although significant pressure will continue in Africa and South Asia.
