The 2023 volume of the Vienna Yearbook of Population Research puts a spotlight on the causes and consequences of population decline – a phenomenon increasingly observed in many countries and regions around the world. This volume showcases the multifaceted nature of population decline, featuring studies from diverse disciplines including environmental studies, urban/regional planning and sociology. Comprising a collection of 18 articles, it examines trends, causes and consequences, challenges and policy responses at various spatial levels, often with a focus on the key role of migration in driving population decline. The seven Debate contributions included in the volume defy the gloomy picture typically associated with population decline, also stressing the (potential) benefits from population decline.

Introduction | Analyzing population ageing and intergenerational redistribution: NTA and AGENTA | Research Articles | Welfare state winners and losers in ageing societies | Intergenerational inequalities in mortality-adjusted disposable incomes | Welfare state and the age distribution of public consumption and public transfers in the EU countries | Extending working life: experiences from Sweden, 1981–2011 | Historical patterns of unpaid work in Europe: NTTA results by age and gender | Italians’ use of time during the economic crisis: implications for the gender division of labour | Transfers of informal care time in the United States: the role of demographic differentials in intergenerational flows by age, sex, and racial and national background | Data Section | European National (Time) Transfer Accounts

This special issue explores the impacts of population aging and intergenerational redistribution, with a focus on the European Union through the lens of the National Transfer Accounts (NTA) and AGENTA projects. It examines how demographic transitions, such as declining fertility and increasing longevity, influence economic dependency ratios and support systems. Utilizing harmonized data from Eurostat, it highlights variations in public and private transfers across countries and delves into policy challenges posed by aging populations. The issue emphasizes the role of intergenerational transfers, including time and gender dynamics, in addressing the economic and social pressures of aging.
