This book explores the concept of key concepts, theories and
practices related to life course issues associated with social
work, power and trust in contemporary society. The book begins by
narrating how aging studies has been colonized by biomedical
conceptualizations, which have masked a social understanding of how
aging and life course are socially constituted. The book explores
the power of an aging society with populational increases and
impacts on different parts of the world. As a healthy corrective to
most texts on aging and life course, the book explores the work of
Foucault and applicability of power relationships to understand and
investigate social aspects of aging. The book then moves to the
concept of a narrative and its relationship to life course and the
social construction of identity.
