title = "Introduction―Population Aging and the Political Economy",
abstract = "Many developed countries are facing problems associated with the rapid aging of their populations. If voters{\textquoteright} policy preferences depend on their age and the government{\textquoteright}s policy adoption reflects public opinion, the change in demographic composition may affect governmental policies in a region. To retain their political power, ruling parties often reallocate the budget in favor of policies preferred by the elderly, rather than younger generations. This book investigates such outcomes.",
