dc.description.notes"All EU Member States exhibit increasing life expectancy and decreasing fertility rates, while<br/ >the problem of sustaining the working age population and by consequence economic growth<br/ >becomes more prominent. Pension systems have fewer workers-contributors and expenses<br/ >for medical care and elderly care also increase and cannot be sustained.<br/ >New family arrangements, delayed union formation (marriage or cohabitation) between<br/ >members of different or the same sex, postponement of childbearing, rising divorce rates<br/ >and higher numbers of children born out of wedlock, as well as ideas and attitudes of<br/ >European citizens have also been undergoing transformation. Traditional family is no longer<br/ >the dominant form.<br/ ><br/ >This study looks into the relationship between demography and family policies from a gender<br/ >point of view and analyses the ways state policies influence the sphere of intimacy, reflecting<br/ >economic priorities and shaping attitudes and family arrangements.<br/ >It highlights the need for further research into the outcomes of policies related with<br/ >demography and family from a gender perspective. Immigration and ageism are key factors.<br/ >It concludes that successful implementation of policies requires looking at the broader policy<br/ >picture and the constellation of policies which may work in synergy or against each other.<br/ >The Nordic cases proves that the most successful policies in this area are those which view<br/ >individuals both as earners and carers. They seem to have the highest potential for changing<br/ >roles and shaping attitudes favouring gender equality and work-life balance."<br/ >Excerpt from Executive Summary<br/ >open sourceen
