title: The impact of population growth on the standard of living: demo-economic scenarios for the Netherlands.
abstract: "The core of the article can be comprised in the question: Will population ageing become a threat to [the] standard of living [in the Netherlands]?... In order to explore a broad range of possibilities two strongly contrasting...scenarios serve as the starting-points of the analyses.... The question of whether the ageing process will jeopardize the standard of living, is, for each of the demographic projections, answered by comparing them with three economic targets.... The most important conclusion is that in the long run neither of the scenarios developed will generate an economic growth comparable with that of the 1960s and 1970s." (SUMMARY IN FRE)
