Description

Ageing has been conventionally framed within the boundaries of nation states, yet demographic changes, transmigration, financial globalization and the global media have rendered this perspective problematic. This much-needed book is the first to apply theories of globalisation to gerontology, including Appadurai's theory, allowing readers to understand the implications of growing older in a global age.

Author Biography:

Martin Hyde is Associate Professor in Gerontology at the Centre for Innovative Ageing, Swansea University. His research looks at global ageing, and work, health and retirement in later life. Paul Higgs is Professor of the Sociology of Ageing at University College London. He has researched the changing nature of later life for over 20 years and is a co-editor of the journal 'Social Theory and Health'.
