Calls for Papers

Against the background of the ageing of the babyboomer cohorts, the conference will present and discuss current research findings on the retirement transition and the post-work life phase by international scholars.

Topics may explore the complex interactions between environmental change, food security and a wide range of population outcomes such as health, fertility, mortality, migration, urbanization, educational attainment, and labour market performance.

The YOUNG-IN Working Group on “Employment” is looking to collect and synthesize evidence of causes, enablers and barriers of young people’s disadvantaged labour market position and the medium and long-term consequences of individual labour market disadvantages.

A maximum of eight papers are expected for the published Special Issue, including an introduction laying out the importance and timeliness of the key themes, debates, and questions addressed by the Special Issue.

The Programme Committee has concluded their review of the session proposals submitted as part of the call conducted last year and have decided to conduct another focused mini-call to obtain select topics related to the Covid-19 experience.

The papers of this Thematic Series will focus on different cases and analyses of gender differences in survival at different ages and stages of life (infancy, adulthood, old age) in a long run perspective.

This special issue will invite empirical papers that examine heterogeneity in the effects of disruptive events on children’s attainment and wellbeing.

They would like to invite the members of the Society to address the relationship between historical demographic structures and processes, and environmental factors, health and disease, as well as addressing the mechanisms underpinning these interactions.
