The Low Birth Rate Is South Korea's Greatest Strategic Threat
By Dr. Alon Levkowitz, May 1, 2019
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: South Korea faces security threats and economic challenges from competitors in Asia and around the world, but the greatest long-term threat to its national interest is the demographic challenge posed by the low birth rate. The failure of the South Korean government to increase the birth rate poses a serious long-term danger to Korea’s economy and security. The Israeli social and economic environment could offer a constructive example for policy reevaluation on this issue.

Family and individualism: A new view of the American dream
Samuel J. Abrams | AEIdeas
Americans truly value their individualism and their community life, and the post–Cold War conception that achieving the American dream is inextricably linked to wealth accumulation is erroneous.

New Insights Into the Poverty and Affluence Gap
Kay Hymowitz, Institute for Family Studies

Racial and ethnic inequality remains one of the country’s most vexing social problems. It has always been true that whites are much less likely to be poor and more likely to be rich than blacks, Hispanics, and American Indians (Asians are a different story)—and it remains true today. For blacks, the gap has been particularly discouraging since it has been resistant to so many efforts to right it: civil rights laws, education reform, affirmative action, an arsenal of War on Poverty-style programs, and two terms of a relatively well-regarded black president.

ALIENATED AMERIKA

Why do so many people believe the American dream is no longer within reach? Growing inequality, stubborn pockets of immobility, rising rates of deadly addiction, the increasing and troubling fact that where you start determines where you end up, and heightening political strife — these are the disturbing realities threatening ordinary American lives today.

The standard account points to economic problems among the working class, but the root was a cultural collapse. While the educated and wealthy elites still enjoy strong communities, most blue-collar Americans lack strong institutions that bind them to their neighbors. And outside of the elites, the central American institution has been religion. That is, it is not the factory closings that have torn us apart; it is the church closings. The dissolution of our most cherished institutions — nuclear families, places of worship, and civic organizations — has not only divided us, but eroded our sense of worth, belief in opportunity, and connection to one another.

In Alienated America, Timothy P. Carney visits all corners of America, from the dim country bars of Southwestern Pennsylvania to the bustling Mormon wards of Salt Lake City, and examines the most important data and research to demonstrate how social connection is the great divide in America. He shows that Trump’s surprising victory was the most visible symptom of this deep-seated problem. In addition to his detailed exploration of how a range of societal changes have, in tandem, damaged us, Carney provides a framework that will lead us back out of a lonely, modern wilderness.

When Concerns for Peripheries Eclipse Interest in the Sacred Other James Kalb
Modern ways of thinking lead people to moral views that are different from traditional ones, so it’s not surprising they consider themselves morally superior to people in the past. Whether current moral understandings are actually better is nonetheless dubious and deserves investigation. Modern thought wants to take fewer things into consideration but in a more […]

KEY POINTS

We already have a fairly reliable picture of China’s population profile for the year 2040 because the overwhelming majority of people who will be living in China in 2040 are already alive and living there today.
China’s population is on track to peak in the coming decade and to decline at an accelerating tempo thereafter.
China is set to experience an extraordinarily rapid surge of population aging, with especially explosive population growth for the 65-plus group, even as its working-age population progressively shrinks.
These trends can only make for serious economic headwinds, presaging the end of China’s era of “heroic economic growth."
