This book provides a theoretical critique and analysis of the
development and consolidation of power in China as it applies to
ageing. In seeking to deal with this increased proportion of
elderly people, Chinese state policy seeks to introduce ways of
reducing the fiscal burden of ageing upon the state, and indeed
upon those many families who have been markedly affected by the
modernisation process. This book, however, fundamentally questions
the assumption that populational policies in the Chinese state are
unbiased in their social practices with older people. The book
explores new topics of ageing in China grounded in and drawing from
developments in social theory, (ie), Foucauldian theory and
postmodernism.
