Japan, the People’s Republic of China, Taiwan, and Korea are all aging societies. What will be the effect of aging on economic output in Northeast Asia? Can welfare states established for much younger populations in developed economies survive the stress of demographic change, or will governments in Northeast Asia need to radically rethink the provision of care to the elderly? Can migration alleviate many of the problems associated with more elderly populations in Northeast Asia? And will current demographic shifts entail more benign or more belligerent interstate relations in the region?

Location: Woodrow Wilson Center at the Ronald Reagan Building, 1300 Pennsylvania Ave., NW, Washington DC, USA ("Federal Triangle" stop on Blue/Orange Line), 5th floor conference. A map to the Center is available at www.wilsoncenter.org/directions. Note: Due to heightened security, entrance to the building will be restricted and photo identification is required. Please allow additional time to pass through security.
