"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."--Publisher's website
