In an era marked by major demographic changes and rapid technological advances, this call seeks contributions that explore the intersection between population decline, the economics of automation and the quest for sustainability, with a particular focus on Europe. We invite papers that address how demographic changes, especially depopulation in particular regions, impact economic and policy decisions.
