A world with fewer and older people: the demographic winter

The article discusses global demographic trends, predicting that by 2050 the world population will reach 9.8 billion. It highlights that developing countries are expected to see population growth while developed nations may experience decline. The piece raises questions about whether policies should encourage higher birth rates in the North and limit them in the South, and explores practical measures to address these challenges without imposing norms on personal life choices. Two experts are interviewed: Césarine Boinet, an economist at the High Commission for Strategy and Planning, and Thibault Prébay, a financial market specialist.
