Increasingly close integration between EU member states through political ties, trade and a common currency, means ageing in one country will have a direct impact on other member states. The book sketches four potential risks with cross-border implications: economic stagnation within the EU, high national debts and divergence, upward pressure on inflation, and socio-political tension within and between member states. In the report \u003cem\u003eEuropean Aging in Focus. Dealing with Pension and Budgetary Risks\u003c\/em\u003e, the Netherlands Scientific Council for Government Policy (WRR) outlines three policy directions to anticipate and mitigate these risks: anticipate an ageing European Union and prepare society for it; steer at the EU level towards ageing-resilient socio-economic and pension policies; and protect at the national level against potential negative consequences of European ageing. While this book has a specific focus on the position of the Netherlands within an ageing Europe, it is of interest to policy makers and researchers across Europe interested in population ageing, associated pension and budgetary risks, and particularly in potential effects of these risks across national borders. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Aptos; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCatrien Bijleveld is a senior researcher at The Netherlands Institute for the Study of Crime and Law Enforcement and an emeritus professor of Research Methods in Empirical Legal Studies.
