As regional demographic trends collide, policymakers worldwide must consider new risks — and opportunities.

As the global population surpasses 8 billion, the world is facing a critical demographic moment with two defining characteristics. On one hand, the world’s largest economies, whose populations are aging and shrinking, are looking for ways to sustain productivity and growth. On the other hand, there are several regions whose younger, often fast-growing populations are vying for long-sought economic development and social advancement. These shifting dynamics have big implications for economies and political stability. If the U.S. and the West fail to consider these changing population dynamics in decision-making, there is a greater risk of economic and political instability at home and abroad. As the world settles into this new demographic moment, the summer 2024 issue of the Wilson Quarterly goes beyond the “too many” or “too few” arguments of China’s latest policies that the media latches onto, to examine the power and limits of population as it relates to foreign policy.
