中日两国在政治和经济生活方而有很大不同,而在人口特别在人口年龄结构变动和老龄化发展趋势,老年人口就业意识和就业结构变动等方面,却有着许多相似之处。进行这方面的比较研究,彼此取长补短,对于应付迅速到来的人口老龄化的挑战,有着特殊的意义。对中国说来尤为重要。 China and Japan differ greatly in their political and economic lifestyles, but there are many similarities between the population and the age structure of the population, the development trend of aging, the employment sense of the elderly and the changes in the employment structure. Carrying out comparative studies in this area and complementing each other’s strengths are of special significance in meeting the challenge of the rapidly aging population. It is especially important for China.
