Demography Matters Blog
| | Demography Matters is a loose network of demographers, economists, and other social scientists who share a number of ideas in common:
- that the current demographic changes occuring across our planet are important, and their consequences insufficiently well understood, by any of us.
- that the process which is know as ´ageing´ is not a problem but a great potential gain for all of us. It does however present us with a great challenge on the institutional level. We, as individuals, mediate our relations with others through institutions, and if these institutions do not adapt, or do not adapt rapidly and flexibly enough, then this great potential boon can in fact be transformed into an equally great problem.
- that the process known as ageing is composed of two components, a fertility and a life expectancy one. Increasing life expectancy naturally produces ageing, and as such an ageing society is a healthy one. The second component, the fertility decline, also produces ageing, however in this case the process may be considered a disruptive one if the fall below replacement fertility occurs too rapidly producing in its wake major structural damage in the population pyramid.
- that ageing itself not only is not a problematic phenomenon it is also not a new a particularly new one, since the median ages of all societies who have entered the fertility decline stage of the demographic transition have subsequently been rising steadily and continuously.
- that ageing if it is to be an adequately managed process requires a vigorous response on many levels, economic, social, political, institutional and individual.

Electronic Journals Library / EZB
| | The Elektronische Zeitschriftenbibliothek EZB (Electronic Journals Library) offers an effective use of both scientific and academic journals publishing full text articles in the internet.
This service has been developed at the Universitätsbibliothek Regensburg (University Library of Regensburg) in cooperation with the Universitätsbibliothek der Technischen Universität München (University Library of the Technical University of Munich). Meanwhile, 189 libraries and research institutions make use of this service in their daily work.
They collect the titles cooperatively and update the bibliographic data jointly in a central database. For each participating institution, we generate a range of electronic journals adapted to the respective library´s requirements. Each member can administer for itself the locally licensed journals and integrate individual user instructions by means of a decentralized specific license administration. Online journals on subscription can therefore be offered within the same system as free e-journals.
The Universitätsbibliothek Regensburg is in charge of the technical maintenance and further development.

Historic Mortality Data Files Database
| | "The Historic Mortality Data Files database was originally created by the Office of Population Censuses and Surveys (OPCS) as a basic tool for researchers studying mortality in England and Wales. It records the numbers of deaths registered in England and Wales from 1901 onwards by year, sex, age group and underlying cause of death.
It also provides estimates of the population at risk of dying by year, sex and comparable age groups. The data is designed to allow for the calculation of national mortality rates, the analysis of trends in mortality and differences in mortality by age and sex, epidemiological research, and local studies of mortality which require national rates for comparative purposes."

Internet-Informationen zur Sacherschließung der Uni Augsburg
| | Ein umfassendes Informationsangebot in Form einer Linksammlung zur bibliothekarischen Sacherschließung gab es bisher im deutschsprachigen Raum noch nicht. Die besten Angebote in dieser Richtung stammen von den Ausbildungseinrichtungen (z.B. Fachhochschulen). Viele informationswissenschaftliche Sites ignorieren oder vernachlässigen die bibliothekarischen Belange. Daneben gibt es Linksammlungen bei Bibliotheksverbünden, die sich i.d.R. auf die im jeweiligen Verbund praktizierten Verfahren beschränken. Ebenso wie der Blick auf das Gesamte von Informationswissenschaft und Bibliothekspraxis ist der Blick über den Zaun ins nicht-deutschsprachige Ausland unverzichtbar, wird aber hier bewusst nur in Auswahl getan. Der Schwerpunkt liegt dabei auf dem angloamerikanischen Raum, weil dieser auch im globalen Maßstab im informationswissenschaftlichen Bereich führend ist.

Multinational Time Use Study (MTUS)
| | "Cross-national and cross-institutional co-operation in the production of time use data as well as the development of many time use data and information archives inspired the development of the Multinational Time Use Study. In the late 1980s, Jonathan Gershuny and Sally Jones, then at the School of Social Sciences at the University of Bath, collected time use data sets performed in 20 countries after the original Szalai study, and prepared a version of these data sets which would allow cross-national comparability. The multinational file, which began as World 1 and has now progressed to World 5.5, has in the past limited the age range and the detail of demographic variables to allow for maximum comparability of the files. The upcoming versions building on this original base will include more variables and the complete age rangescollected in the various studies."

Russia Longitudinal Monitoring Survey (RLMS)
| | "The RLMS is a household-based survey designed to measure the effects of Russian reforms on the economic well-being of households and individuals´. In particular, determining the impact of reforms on household consumption and individual health is essential, as most of the subsidies provided to protect food production and health care have been or will be reduced, eliminated, or at least dramatically changed. These effects are measured by a variety of means: detailed monitoring of individual health status and dietary intake; precise measurement of household-level expenditures and service utilization; and collection of relevant community-level data, including region-specific prices and community infrastructure data. Data have been collected nine times since 1992." Keywords: Russia, life standards, economic reforms

Socioeconomic Survey of Twins
| | These data were collected by Jere R. Behrman, Mark R. Rosenzweig, and Paul Taubman of the Economics Department at the University of Pennsylvania with funds from the National Center on the Educational Quality of the Workforce, the Economics Institute Research Fund, the Boettner Research Fund, the Population Study Center NIA Supplement, and the University Research Foundation -- all of the University of Pennsylvania. The survey instrument was designed in collaboration with the Temple University Institute of Survey Research. The data were collected, under the leadership of David T. Lykken, then Director of the Minnesota Twin/Family Registry (MTR), by the staff of the MTR. Users of the data should acknowledge the source. The MTR is the largest birth-record-based twins registry in the United States, assembled between 1983 and 1990 starting with birth records on all twins (both monozygotic, MZ, and dizygotic, DZ) born in Minnesota in 1936-55. Details of the sample and its characteristics are in Lykken, D. T., T. J. Bouchard, M. McGue, and A. Tellegen, 1990, "The Minnesota Twin Family Registry: Some Initial Findings," Acta Genet Med Gemellol 39, 35-70. The survey instrument was mailed out starting in May 1994 to the 6638 members of same-sex pairs who had filled out an earlier instrument sent to them by the MTR and for whom the MTR had current addresses. 3682 twins returned a completed questionnaire, including both responses from both members of some pairs and only one member of others.

The SocioSite Project: Demography - Population Studies
| | The SocioSite is designed to get access to information and resources which are relevant for sociologists and other social scientists. It has been designed from a global point of view - it gives access to the world wide scene of social sciences. The intention is to provide a comprehensive listing of all sociology resources on the Internet. The enormity and constantly changing nature of the Internet makes it impossible to develop a definitive and comprehensive listing. That´s why the SocioSite will always be ´under construction´.
The SocioSite is a project based at the faculty of Social Sciences at the University of Amsterdam. And therefore it provides access to all the educational and research programmes of the Sociology Department. But the SocioSite covers a lot more.
We present the resources and information that are important for the international sociological scene. It links students of sociology to many interesting, sociologically relevant locations in cyberspace. The SocioSite is a comprehensive information system which is very easy to use. That is why it has become a very popular yellow guide for social scientists from all over the world. The SocioSite is a toolkit for us social scientists. It contains high quality resources and texts that can be used as wheels for the sociological mind.

Zukunftsradar 2030 - Herausforderung für Rheinland-Pfalz
| | Der Zukunftsradar 2030 ist ein Projekt der Zukunftsinitiative Rheinland-Pfalz (ZIRP), das sich mit den Auswirkungen des demographischen Wandels auf die Bereiche Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft beschäftigt.
Mit dem Anspruch, schon heute die Weichen für die Herausforderungen von morgen zu stellen, rief die ZIRP im Frühjahr 2003 das Projekt Zukunftsradar 2030 ins Leben. Ziel ist es, die konkreten Folgen des Wandels in vier Kernbereichen zu erörtern: Kommune, Arbeitswelt, Miteinander der Generationen und Markt. Anschließend sollen Handlungsstrategien zur Bewältigung der Herausforderungen entwickelt werden.
Im Rahmen eines Foresight-Prozesses erarbeiten Experten mit unterschiedlichem Hintergrund, Antworten auf drängende Fragen der Zukunft zu finden. Wie kann das Land auf die Auswirkungen des Demographischen Wandels vorbereitet werden? Welche Strategien sind für den einzelnen Bereich sinnvoll? Wo liegen die Chancen des Wandels?
