Asia Pacific Security Seminar
American Enterprise Institute's Nicholas Eberstadt will discuss the projected demographic changes in the region and explore the implications for economic progress, political interactions, and international security.
When:
January 29, 2009 12:00am
Time: 12:30-2:00 PM
Northeast Asia, consisting of China, Japan, Korea and Russia, is undergoing profound and far-reaching demographic transformations. Due to steep and prolonged sub-replacement fertility, new family patterns, and, in some locales, severe retrogressions in public health, the population profile of the region and its countries is projected to be very different a generation from now. Nicholas Eberstadt, who holds the Henry Wendt Chair in Political Economy at the American Enterprise Institute, will discuss the projected demographic changes in the region and explore the implications for economic progress, political interactions, and international security.
Please RSVP by Monday, January 26 to Alison Hazell by email (RSVPDC@eastwestcenter.org), fax (202) 293-1402, or telephone (202) 327-9752.
Please include your name, title, organization, address, phone number, email, and country of citizenship. All personal information is for East-West Center use ONLY and is not circulated. Please note that seating for this event is limited.
