La longévité au Japon - Perspectives

Avec plus de 90 000 centenaires, le Japon est actuellement le pays où le taux de personnes de plus de cent ans est le plus élevé. Pourtant, la proportion de personnes qui disent vouloir vivre jusqu’à 100 ans est moins grande au Japon que dans d’autres pays. Comment expliquer ce phénomène ? Selon Yasuyuki GONDO, professeur du département des sciences humaines de l’Université d’Osaka, ne pas lutter contre le vieillissement pourrait être, paradoxalement, le moyen de vivre une vieillesse heureuse. Il débattra de ce sujet avec Jean-Marie ROBINE, directeur de recherche émérite à l’Inserm et à l’EPHE, rattaché au laboratoire MMDN de l'Université de Montpellier.

2nd Expert Group meeting on “economics of ageing”

FFJ/Banque de France lab

This year, the FFJ-Banque de France lab will concentrate its activities on the relationship between demography and economics. Due to the nature of the topic, which is quite broad, it is proposed to narrow it down and focus on the economics of ageing, with two primary directions:

  • Fiscal sustainability and price dynamics in an ageing economy
  • Innovation and human capital in an ageing economy

Besides the regular conferences on June 14 (in Paris) and December 2 (in Tokyo), we decided to launch a Japanese-French expert group to facilitate a knowledge exchange opportunity and promote research coordination that allows the researchers to work collaboratively to produce new knowledge. We provide the opportunity for mid-career and junior researchers to present their research, which allows senior researchers to comment on their works.

For this 2nd expert group, we will focus on two presentation about “Why Ageing Induces Deflation and Secular Stagnation?” and “Health capacity to work among older persons in Asia: Key findings from a regional comparative study”.

  • 30 May 2024 | 16:00 - 17:30 (Tokyo time)

  • Speakers: R.Anton BRAUN (Research economist and senior advisor, the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, CIGS), Takashi OSHIO (Emeritus professor, Hitotsubashi University)

Building a New Economy - Japan's Digital and Green Transformation

FFJ/Banque de France lab - Roundtable

This roundtable aims to discuss the latest book by Hugh WHITTAKER (Oxford University, 2022 FFJ/Banque de France Fellow).

Book Abstract: Japan is attempting to build a new economy. It goes by various names, such as 'Society 5.0', 'sustainable capitalism', and 'new form of capitalism'. It is to be constructed through digital and green transformation, and a 'virtuous cycle of growth and distribution'. The effort faces strong headwinds, including demographic decline and ageing, Japan's external energy dependence and geopolitical turbulence, and the legacies of Japan's 'lost decades'. Nonetheless, since 2015 a path has been identified that steers between Big Tech market oligopoly on the one hand, and an overbearing state on the other. For others facing the same post-neoliberal, sustainability transformation challenges as Japan, this public-private coordinated building effort is noteworthy.

Building a New Economy uses an evolutionary conceptual framework of states-and-markets, organizations-and-technology, and institutional change. It shows how the institutional coherence of the manufacturing-centred postwar model broke down, and was followed by the ideological and institutional dissonance of the 'lost decades'. However, new institutional building blocks have been identified and (partially) assembled which could lead Japan towards a new model which is more open and adaptive. These blocks include a reconfigured developmental state, and new forms of coordination with and within the corporate sector, at times encompassing civil society.

Importantly, for a country that has favoured social stability over creative destruction, and has struggled with change, the path forward may require 'controlled dis-equilibrium' of institutions rather than tight coherence. 'Society 5.0' and the 'new form of capitalism' claim to be people-centred; making them so will be the crucial challenge.

Reforming Japanese capitalism

FFJ/Banque de France lab - Roundtable

This roundtable aims to discuss the special issue of Asia Pacific Business Review coordinated by Yoshifumi NAKATA (Doshisha University) and Hugh WHITTAKER (Oxford University, 2022 FFJ/Banque de France Fellow).

Special Issue Abstract: Is Japan creating a new economic model through digital and green transformation which will overcome its ‘lost decades’ lethargy and demographic challenges? Do Society 5.0, DX, GX, ‘new/sustainable capitalism’, Digital Garden City Nation and other initiatives represent a well-intentioned mish-mash, or something new and potentially coherent which other countries should take notice of? These questions animated a conference held in Oxford in February 2023, and subsequently informed the 11 articles in this special issue by European and Japanese academics and policy makers. The collection identifies tensions and contradictions but also significant changes in in corporate governance, innovation, public policy and human resources, which may point to a new direction for Japanese capitalism.

Economics of Ageing

FFJ/Banque de France lab - Roundtable

Many developed countries have been facing population ageing as the most dominant demographic trend of the 21st century. Japan has been impacted more severely by the issues in economic, financial performance and public policy effectiveness (such as the long-term solvency of public pension, health care, and long-term care systems). The experience of Japan could be regarded as providing lessons for the key macroeconomic and financial outcomes of the ageing economy. Thus, the BdF-FFJ joint lab aims at bringing together leading researchers from academia, central banks, and other policy institutions to present research findings related to the importance of including demographic change and ageing in the decision-making of the central banks’ policies. The two major topics that will be discussed are the following: Fiscal sustainability and price dynamics in an ageing economy, and Innovation and human capital in an ageing economy
