This book paints a picture of poor older people's life-worlds in
Beijing, China. Instead of viewing them as pitiful recipients of
vulnerabilities and deprivations, this book sheds light on how poor
older people exert their active agency to live through their life
difficulties - i.e. how they negotiate resources within and outside
of family to pursue the kind of lives they have reason to value.
Based on a prolonged period of ethnographic fieldwork in Beijing,
the researcher highlights the experiences, perspectives, and
strategies of these people developed in the context of their
economic hardships against the background of massive social reform
and demographic ageing in China.
