Study on the Status Quo, Trend, Causes and Countermeasures of Population Aging in China
Abstract
Due to the inevitable trend of social development and the change of family planning and birth idea, China’s aging presents a large scale, and the characteristics of population aging fast are rare in the world. The consequent problems include the continuous shrinking of the size of the labor force, the heavy burden of social pensions, and the downward pressure on economic operations. Based on the relevant data of the Seventh Census and the latest theoretical research, this paper mainly analyzes the current situation, trend and causes of aging, and actively promotes the policy of postponing retirement, and puts forward specific solutions, including developing surplus labor force; establishing a redistribution system commensurate with the aging society; accelerating the construction of a sound and perfect social security system; developing high and new technology and develop artificial intelligence machines; improving the education system for the elderly, so as to provide useful reference for China to successfully cope with the aging population.
