Synopsis

Until recently, the migration behaviour and its consequences for elderly people has not been adequately reflected in demographic studies, yet mobility in the "third age" is a major phenomenon particularly in western society where retirement often invokes the largest change in an individual's experiences in social and economic status. This book examines the factors that govern why the elderly decide to migrate, how the migration processes operate and the impact the arrival and departure of an age-specific group has on the population at large. The study is cast in a comparative framework that points out the similarities and constrasts between North America, Europe and Japan.
