Note(s) : Includes bibliographical references and index
Based on years of research, interviews with key strategists, and analyses of hundreds
documents, One Nation under AARP profiles a largely white generation, raised in the
relatively tranquil 1950s and growing old in a twenty-first century nation buffeted
by rapid economic, cultural, and demographic change. Lynch argues that an ideologically
divided boomer generation must decide whether to resist entitlement reductions through
its own political mobilization or, by default, to empower AARP as it tries to shed
its "greedy geezer" stereotype with an increasingly post-boomer agenda for multigenerational
equity
