This book provides a critical understanding of contemporary
issues within global society and how these relate to six case
study examples (UK, USA, China, India, South Africa,
Bangladesh, and Japan). The authors draw on their diverse
experience to explore four major themes of contemporary
relevance: overall aging of societies; governance and
institutions; emergency services and public health provisions; and
community activism and involvement. The key
issues within the book--sociability, social capital, and
community development--are examined in the context of an ever
increasing aging world. The authors' sense of optimism is
linked to growing evidence that community activism is on the
rise and can effectively plug the gap between public need and
provision of service.
