About this book

Brazil is going through a deep socioeconomic change driven by demography. Over the past four decades, falling mortality and especially falling fertility have raised the share of older people, and that share is set to climb faster as time goes on.

The book examines what this shift means for economic growth, poverty, public finances and the services that governments provide. It places Brazil's experience in a comparative frame, which lets readers weigh the speed of the change against earlier experiences elsewhere.

Policy makers, economists working on Latin America and development specialists planning for an older population are the readers this study is written for. It works best as a source of analysis and evidence rather than as a general introduction to ageing.
