Though the population of France is ageing, there is no threat of "demographic decline" on the horizon. In fact, the INSEE projections for 2050 foresee a substantial population increase over the coming decades.

Laurent Toulemon and Isabelle Robert-Bobée examine the various scenarios envisaged and explain the reasons for this new prognosis.

The paper then shows how these faces interact within a consumer competency structure in which individualistic dialogue competencies combine with hedonistic play competencies and creative resource integration competencies. The conclusion focuses on the existence within these different marketing discourses of a governmental process pressuring today's citize...
