Although demographic change has been a widely discussed topic for
decades, its scope, social impact and related policy responses
leave us with many unresolved social issues. Demographic change is
a reality for all European societies but the ways in which it is
taking place differ from country to country. Active ageing both as
a concept and policy response to the demographic ageing of
populations has been widely debated, researched and utilised,
informing both policy and practice, and providing a common
narrative framework to ageing. However, there continues to be a
lack of clarity around the precise meaning of 'active ageing'. This
book explores the way in which social work is critically engaging
with the theme of active ageing, in light of, or maybe as a
reaction to, the policy responses witnessed within the context of
large-scale and rapid demographic change. This book was originally
published as a special issue of the European Journal of Social
Work.
