Exploring European changes in religious and secular beliefs and
practices related to life passages, this book provides a deeper
understanding of the impacts of social change on personal identity
and adjustment across the life course, According to latest
research, Europeans who consider religious services appropriate to
mark life passages significantly outnumber those who declare
themselves as believers. Drawing on fascinating oral histories of
older people's memories in both Eastern and Western Europe, this
book presents illuminating views on peoples' quests for existential
meaning in later life. Ageing, Ritual and Social Change presents an
invaluable resource for all those exploring issues of ageing,
including those looking from perspectives of sociology and
psychology of religion, social and oral history and East-Central
European studies.
