摘要:Spain and Mexico are countries in different demographic transition stages, but in both countries the ageing process is characterized by its intensity and high pace. The number of aged (over 65 years and over 80 years) people is growing and they face problems believed by everybody to be inherent to ageing. Both countries have the same concern for the increasing «load» aged people represent for the economically active population and for the impact that increasingly retirement pensions exercise on social welfare and general economy. A better understanding of aged population on different geographical environments, of their residential, leisure and consumption preferences, of their needs and of their social and spacial behaviours may contribute to the so-needed inter-generation solidarity, one of the challenges set for the 21st century.
