Description
Ageing and Globalisation provides an accessible overview of how population ageing and globalisation interact. This comprehensive introduction to globalisation for gerontologists challenges conventional perspectives on ageing, which have traditionally been framed within nation states. By applying theories of globalisation to gerontology, including Appadurai's theory, readers can gain a deeper understanding of the implications of growing older in a global age. This book is part of the Ageing in a Global Context series, published in association with the British Society of Gerontology. It will be of particular interest to advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students and academics in this area. With its unique approach, it offers a valuable resource for those seeking to understand the complex relationships between ageing and globalisation. By exploring these themes, readers can gain a nuanced understanding of the challenges and opportunities presented by population ageing in a global context.
