Broadening the Dementia Debate - Towards Social Citizenship (Book)

Dementia has been widely debated from the perspectives of biomedicine and social psychology. This book broadens the debate to consider the experiences of men and women with dementia from a socio-political perspective. It brings to the fore the concept of social citizenship, exploring what it means within the context of dementia and using it to re-examine the issue of rights, status(es), and participation. The book fills a gap in the global market for an up-to-date, coherent, and authoritative account on the present day situation of people with dementia. It offers fresh and practical insights into how a citizenship framework can be applied in practice, and it analyzes biographical accounts of living with dementia from a life course perspective.
