What risks and insecurities do older people face in a time of both
increased longevity and widening inequality? This edited collection
develops an exciting new approach to understanding the changing
cultural, economic and social circumstances facing different groups
of older people. Exploring a range of topics, the chapters provide
a critical review of the concept of precarity, highlighting the
experiences of ageing that occur within the context of societal
changes tied to declining social protection. Drawing together
insights from leading voices across a range of disciplines, the
book underscores the pressing need to address inequality across the
life course and into later life.
