Evidence of widening inequalities in later life raises concerns
about the ways in which older adults might experience forms of
social exclusion. Such concerns are evident in all societies as
they seek to come to terms with the unprecedented ageing of their
populations. Taking a broad international perspective, this highly
topical book casts light on patterns and processes that either
place groups of older adults at risk of exclusion or are conducive
to their inclusion. Leading international experts challenge
traditional understandings of exclusion in relation to ageing in
From Exclusion to Inclusion in Old Age. They also present new
evidence of the interplay between social institutions, policy
processes, personal resources and the contexts within which ageing
individuals live to show how this shapes inclusion or exclusion in
later life. Dealing with topics such as globalisation, age
discrimination and human rights, intergenerational relationships,
poverty, and migration, the book is essential reading for anyone
interested in ageing issues.
