本文回顾了美国和德国老年人口迁移和空间再分布行为的一些主要差异和相似之处。近年来,随着前德意志民主共和国合并为德国的联邦共和国,德国的情况发生了相当大的变化,改变了人口的规模、年龄结构,特别是人口再分配的潜在途径。本文件分为三个不同的部分。本文首先回顾了老年人口的实际和预期再分配,涉及人口的区域间转移以及沿着城乡连续体的集中变化。在这些宏观元素之后,然后,本文介绍了两次事后调查的结果(一张摄于美国,另一张摄于德国)最后一节考虑了在地理层面上重新分配的影响以及根据政治因素对搬迁者满意度的影响。目前在欧洲的发展。
This paper reviews some of the principal differences and similarities in the micgration and spatial redistribution behavior of the older populations of the USA and of Germany. The German situation has changed quite dramatically in recent years, as the consolidation of the former German Democratic Republic into the Federal Republic of Germany has altered the size, age structure, and, of particular interest here, the potential paths of population redistribution. The paper is divided into three distinct parts. The paper first reviews actual and prospective redistribution of the older population, with regard to interregional shifts of population as well as to changes in concentration along an urban-rural continuum. Following these macroscopic elements, the paper then moves to a presentation of the results of two ex post facto surveys (one taken in the USA and the other in Germany) of recent older movers in order to compare the motivations expressed for the move and the present degree of satisfaction with it. The concluding section considers the implications of redistribution at both geographic levels and of mover satisfaction in light of political developments as they are presently unfolding in Europe.
