Demographic Consequences of an Immediate Transition to a Universal Two-child Policy Zhai Zhenwu, Zhang Xianling, Jin Yongai Population Research    2014, 38 (2): 3-17.   Abstract （7964）      PDF （723KB）（11572）       Knowledge map    Save Fertility in China dropped below the replacement level in the early 1990s, and has been increasingly lower, arousing intense academic discussion on fertility policy adjustment．This paper estimates the size of objective population that is targeted by the two-child policy after computing the amount of the only children in 2012 based on the data of the 2005 national 1% population sampling survey, and analyzes its impact on number of annual births．The results show that on account of the large number of the objective population covered by the two-child policy and women's strong desire to have the second child，if there was an immediate transition to a universal two-child policy, number of annual births would sharply increase with the peak value up to nearly 50 million and a total fertility rate of about 4.5．However, immediately implementing the two-child policy could significantly retard the negative growth trend of population in the future, increase labor supply and slow down population aging in China． Related Articles | Metrics

Continuity or Change? Chinese Family in Transitional Era Yang Juhua, He Zhaohua Population Research    2014, 38 (2): 36-51.   Abstract （1806）      PDF （807KB）（5755）       Knowledge map    Save  With industrialization，urbanization and modernization, the family institution has inevitably undergone changes. China has witnessed extraordinary social transformations over the past three decades. These forces have jointly brought about profound changes to the family organization. This paper traces the changing trend, patterns and characteristics in family structure, explores the causes of such change, and analyzes its consequences to family relationships andfamily functions in recent years in China. It has found that family size has shrunk，number of generations in the family is reduced，family forms become more diversified, and family relationship remain intimate but distanced. Also, many traditional family functions have been taken over by public agencies，and family norms and culture have been reshaped. While changesoccur in various ways and important challenges remain，the Chinese family has been so far resilient to societal transformation due to its deeply rooted tradition and current structural constraints. These have made intergenerational reciprocity attractive and prevented the Chinese family from decline. In the future, the government and the family have to face challenges brought about by demographic transition, persistently large-scale migration, and changing norms towards the family.

Changes and Challenges of Labour Supply in China in the Context of Population Ageing Tong Yufen Population Research    2014, 38 (2): 52-60.   Abstract （2059）      PDF （644KB）（3834）       Knowledge map    Save China is experiencing an accelerated aging process. Population aging brings not only the changes of the size and proportion of the elderly population but the corresponding changes of the other age groups，especially of the labor-age population group，which has more profound and direct impact on the society and economy. This study uses primarily the United Nations latest population forecasting results to analyze the challenges and possible impacts of aging on labor supplies of the labor market in China. This study shows that although aging would cause a decline in the working-age population，the occurrence of which would be slow before 2030; however，the young labor force would experience a rapid decline. In addition，the aging of the labor force itself，as well as the increasing degree of aging in rural areas call for extra attention，suggesting that it is necessary to prepare relevant policies in advance.
