Description

As the global population grows older, societies face a historically unprecedented phenomenon. This Routledge publication explores the necessity of cultural adaptation in response to increased longevity. The text examines how individuals, social structures, governments, and international organizations must navigate these significant changes. The book addresses two fundamental questions: what is the purpose of a long life, and how can societies function when different generations are approximately the same size? By analyzing pre-existing narratives, the author argues that current policies may provide premature answers that limit the potential benefits of lifecourse changes. This work provides a necessary perspective for understanding the social and cultural shifts required to manage an aging world.
