Age Structuring in Comparative Perspective: Social Structure and Aging Series

Editat de David I. Kertzer, K. Warner Schaie
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 sep 2016
This volume studies age as a basis for social organization by uniting research from the social science disciplines while implementing both cross-cultural and historical perspectives. The contributors, a distinguished interdisciplinary group of scholars, advance our understanding of age structuring by relating the changing societal level processes and individual aging experiences, and examining retirement practices, age and power in society, and cultural conceptions of age.

Recenzii

"Taken as a whole, this volume is an excellent example of the value of the cross-fertilization of ideas from several disciplines....the inclusion of critical discussion of the major essays is thought-provoking. Most important, the essays move forward the analysis of issues related to the age structure of society."
—Contemporary Sociology
"For serious students of age stratification and age structuring of both society and the life course, the book will inevitably and quickly become dog-eared through use!"
—Matilda White Riley
