Intergenerational Transfers and Demographic Outcomes
Ole Hexel, Diego Alburez-Gutierrez, Emilio Zagheni; in Collaboration with Fanny Annemarie Kluge (State of Berlin, Germany)
We study generational resource sharing via different transfer mechanisms around the globe. A major goal is to assess the impact of transfers on health, well-being, and survival, and to look at the influence of mortality, demographic processes, and kinship structures on transfers. Detailed Description
Mortality risk according to generosity of the country
![](/media/20352_main.jpg)
The risk of dying at young ages is lower in more generous countries (Fig. 2 from Vogt, Kluge, and Lee 2020. Age-standardized risk of death age 0 to 20 and share of lifetime income transferred to others.) © https://www.pnas.org/doi/full/10.1073/pnas.1920978117
