商品簡介
Seeking to redress the simplistic accounts of later life, globalization, or both in so many academic studies, sociologists Hyde and Higgs consider aging and globalization together to show how they interact, in a manner that could be helpful to students in either field. Looking in turn at theories of aging and globalization and global landscapes of aging, they cover theorizing time and space in social gerontology; competing spatialities of aging and later life; aging, populations, and health; time and money in later life; the cultures of aging and later life; and politics, place, and aging.
