The new issue (Nr. 4/2011) of "Demografische Forschung Aus Erster Hand", the popular science newsletter with latest research results from demography, has been released. (The Newsletter is available in German only.)

  • Growth of the world population. Education of women is crucial. A difference of one billion people is possible by the year 2050.
  • Stepfamilies are economically disadvantaged. This discrimination takes place in France and Western Germany but not in the East.
  • The fewer people there are, the more bank branches there are per person. Even sparsely populated areas are served by savings and cooperative banks.

 

"Demografische Forschung Aus Erster Hand" is a joint publication of the  Max Planck Institute for demographic Research (MPIDR), the Rostocker Zentrum zur Erforschung des Demografischen Wandels (RZ) and the Vienna Institute of Demography (VID). The newsletter is released four times a year and is available electronically and as a printed version and is free of charge.

You may download the new issue as PDF. All past issues are available online on the Newsletter website. On the website you also have the possibility to subscribe to the Newsletter to get informed about the release of the new issues or to receive the printed versions by mail.
