With the continuous deepening of population ageing in China, the living conditions of the elderly require more attention from the government and society. Focussing on the relationship between the living conditions of the elderly and income distribution, this special issue/section attempts to analyze the determining role of income inequality in the living conditions of the elderly, and at the same time explore the impact of ageing on the income distribution among residents. With this purpose, EPS invites submissions to this special issue/section on the following topics:
- Population ageing and income inequality in China
- Income composition of the elderly and income inequality (i.e., the importance of pension for the elderly)
- Income and health of the elderly
