[The evolution of first marriages in Canada].

"The purpose of this paper is to investigate to what extent the major socio-political events to the last sixty years (the crisis of the 1930's, the second world war, etc.) have influenced the behavior of Canadians towards (first) marriage. The results of period as well as cohort analysis lead to the conclusion that, while these events did not significantly affect the ultimate (at age 50) frequency of first marriages among generations, they however had a marked impact on the timing of marriage, and therefore on the period measures."

The aging of China's population: perspectives and implications.

"China's efforts to accelerate the pace of modernization emphasize the promotion of economic development and the reduction of its population growth through the adoption of a one-child per family policy. However, that policy has implications for the eventual aging of the country's population. This article reviews the changes in the status of the elderly, explores the changes in size of the elderly population, and various related social and policy implications." Topics considered include socioeconomic changes, underlying population dynamics, the current situation of the elderly, some international comparisons, implications of aging, planning for support of the elderly, health care, living arrangements and family support, retirement, and the status of the widowed, divorced, and unmarried in the elderly population.
