Résumé anglais Ageing of the Population Issues. The author reviews the main issues arising from the ageing of the French population, pointing out the challenge they represent to society as a whole. Future problems concerning the family, employment, space, etc., as well as the “democratic risk” are considered in the light of this demographic analysis. The author discusses the dogma of the “longevity revolution” and shows the importance of the demographic approach, particularly when determining the orientation of public policy. He points out the virtues of an approach which not only gives priority to the fight against senility (by definition individual), but also takes into consideration demographic necessities (by definition collective).
