High-Income Asia: Lessons In Population And Economy

de Shigesaburo Kabe

~~52,99€~~ 47,69€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This book focuses on the high-income Asia that experienced fast economic growth and rapid demographic change in recent decades. High-income Asia includes Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore and Hong Kong, according to the World Bank’s category classification. These economies enjoyed a brief period of brilliant economic growth but then faced a demographic shift, with the lowest fertility in the world.For example, Japan today must confront difficult challenges such as how to balance childbirth and childcare with women’s employment as its population rapidly ages—a consequence that was hardly foreseen in the process of economic growth. The changing landscape is different at each stage of the process, and the issues related to economic growth cannot be clearly recognized before or during that growth. Therefore, as a reference for the future of developing countries, this book aims to provide positive and negative lessons, learned from high-income Asia’s experiences in high-speed economic growth and demographic changes.First, it gives an overview of the rapid economic growth and demographic changes in high-income Asia over the past several decades. Then, among the challenges following economic growth, it focuses on two points: 1) how to balance childbirth and childcare with women’s employment; and 2) how to respond to the anticipated labor shortage in the future. The former issue requires a delicate balance between preventing fertility decline and supporting women''s employment. Here, a comparison among Japan, Taiwan and Korea is made. The latter question focuses primarily on Japan as the fastest-aging population in the world, with additional reference to parts of high-income Asia other than Japan, which also are aging. Based on analyses of these major points, the author discusses the policy implications for developing countries learned from the tough lessons of high-income Asia.

Demography Of Remarriage In Japan

de Erika Teramoto, James M. Raymo, Miho Iwasawa, Setsuya Fukuda e Shohei Yoda

~~59,61€~~ 53,65€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This book provides the first comprehensive demographic overview of remarriage in Japan. Despite the fact that nearly one in five marriages in Japan now involves at least one formerly married spouse, very little is known about the nature of remarriages and how they differ from first marriages. One important focus of this book is to examine fertility intentions and outcomes in remarriages and to compare them with marriages in which both partners are in their first marriage. It is well known that low rates of first marriage contribute to Japan’s very low total fertility rate (TFR), but there is currently no theoretical or empirical basis for understanding how levels and patterns of remarriage are related to the TFR.To understand trends and patterns of remarriage in Japan, the book begins with an overview of the voluminous research literature on remarriage in the USA and other Western countries. This overview consists of a summary of trends and theoretical frameworks for understanding remarriage and is followed by a summary of existing research on correlates of remarriage and outcomes associated with higher-order marriages. Of particular importance is the attention paid to stepfamily fertility and the extent to which remarriage is associated with overall levels of fertility.An important contribution of this book is its presentation of basic descriptive information about levels and correlates of remarriage in Japan. These descriptive analyses are based on published data in the vital statistics reports and individual-level data from the National Fertility Surveys conducted by the National Institute of Population and Social Security Research and the National Survey of Households with Children conducted by the Japan Institute for Labour Policy and Training.

Perception Of Family And Work In Low-Fertility East Asia

59,61€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This book is the first of its kind to incorporate subjective well-being (SWB) data to comprehensively explore perceptional factors that relate to fertility behavior in East Asia. The advantage of SWB data lies in the accessibility to rich information regarding perceptions, attitudes, and behaviors. With this advantage, the book inquires into the perceptions toward family and work and explores the attitudes that lead to low fertility in the region.To this end, first a comparative analysis with international cross-sectional data is performed and the East Asian characteristics of family and work perceptions are documented. Then, three democracies in the region are focused on—Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan—to investigate the relationships between cultural orientations, work-life balance, and fertility outcomes with panel data. In addition, East Asian results are compared with those in India, which has also been experiencing a rapid transition from a traditional society to anindustrial one. The results support the idea that the friction between persistent gender-based role divisions and socioeconomic transformation in East Asia makes it difficult for women to balance family and work, prompting fertility decline to the lowest-low level in the region.
