Patrik Marier’s research focuses broadly on the impact of changing demographic structures on reforms to the welfare state in comparative contexts. His earlier work examined the politics of pension reform in a number of countries including Sweden, Canada, Mexico and the United States. Dr. Marier’s current research looks more broadly at the impact of aging populations on a number of public policy fields including education, health care, and labour policy across comparative cases. With Dolores Pushkar (Department of Psychology, Concordia), Dr. Marier has facilitated the organization of the Concordia Ageing Research Network which has brought a number of Concordia scholars together to examine the comparative impact of ageing from a multidisciplinary perspective.
