Key Notes
prediction
Aging northern economies will need cheap desperate workers from the South, but the resulting immigration will produce cultural conflict as native populations feel replaced.
prediction
South Korea is Jiang's worst-case fertility scenario: aging and childlessness threaten economic collapse, military capacity, and nation-state survival.
diagnosis
He argues that older people, especially very old officeholders, increasingly dominate society and policy, with gerontocracy visible in the U.S. Senate and former leaders such as Joe Biden, Mitch McConnell, Dianne Feinstein, and Chuck Grassley.
prediction
He says China probably still has over a billion people, but its real demographic issue is rapid aging and fertility that could fall below South Korea’s within five years.
diagnosis
Jiang says Japan's cohesion means its elderly may accept sacrifices for future generations, unlike American baby boomers whom he describes as refusing to surrender power.
model
Jiang says Europe's economic crisis is compounded by aging demographics and by the collapse of Germany's old model of cheap Russian energy, Polish labor subcontracting, and Chinese export demand.
diagnosis
Jiang says he is pessimistic about an East Asian century because the region faces an aging crisis, ultra-low fertility, and a deep inability to restore confidence in the future.
