    Abstract: This book focuses on social transformations as one of the central topics in the social sciences. The study of European social transformations is very valuable in the context of universal discussions within social sciences: explaining invariable, universal attributes of societies and examining changing attributes. The book consists of 20 chapters on European social transformations, written from the perspectives of distinguished scholars from such disciplines as economics, political science, educational science, geography, media and communication studies, public management and administration, social psychology and sociology. The temporal and spatial range of the book is wide, including such global changes as time-space compression, focusing particularly on change processes in Europe during the last two decades. The book consists of four main parts, beginning with an overview of the theoretical and methodological approaches, and then focusing separately on post-communist transformations, institutional drivers of social transformations in the European Union, and European transformations in the context of global processes. The book presents current theoretical, empirical and methodological approaches that complement the scientific literature on social transformations. This book is both an invaluable resource for scholars and an indispensable teaching tool for use in the classroom and will be of interest to students, academics, and policy-makers studying how this diverse region has changed over recent years.

    Ageing as a Social Challenge : Individual, Family and Social Aspects in Poland (2021)
    [Erscheinungsort nicht ermittelbar] : Taylor & Francis | The Hague : OAPEN FOUNDATION
    Details
    ISBN: 9781032194837 , 9781032194868 , 9781003259404
    Language: English
    Pages: 1 Online-Ressource (376 p.)
    DDC: 305.2609438
    Keywords: Age groups: the elderly ; Sociology ; ageing; ageing research; aging; death and dying; elderly; experiences; gerontology; interdisciplinary study; later life; local initiatives; methodology; Poland; qualitative research; quantitative research; resources; social attitudes; social care; social factors; social policy; sociology
    Abstract: With a focus on the case of Poland, where an aging population poses a crucial challenge for the state’s social, family, and gerontological policy, this book explores ageing as a personal and social phenomenon, considering the ways in which the experience of ageing is shaped by younger generations’ attitudes, government support policies, local initiatives undertaken help older people stay active, and the ways in which the elderly themselves understand their own mortality. Employing demographic, philosophical, legal, psychological, gerontological perspectives, it emphasises activities that can support older adults locally or nationwide and proposes the development of a social policy and social attitudes that can facilitate changes in the social perception of aging, together with a redistribution of resources for older adults. As such, it will appeal to scholars across the social sciences with interests in ageing and the lifecourse, as well as those who wish to support older adults with concrete solutions and familiarize themselves with the aging process from an individual and social perspective.

    Ageing and Covid-19 : Making Sense of a Disrupted World (2021)
    [Erscheinungsort nicht ermittelbar] : Taylor & Francis | The Hague : OAPEN FOUNDATION

    ISBN: 9781000530971 , 9781032194677 , 9781032194691 , 9781003259329
    Language: English
    Pages: 1 Online-Ressource (348 p.)
    DDC: 305.26
    Keywords: Social research & statistics ; Illness & addiction: social aspects ; Age groups: the elderly ; ageing ; aging ; COVID-19 ; coronavirus ; disruption ; epidemic ; gerontology ; later life ; lifecourse ; methodologies ; pandemic ; qualitative ; quantitative ; research methods ; social attitudes ; social care ; social life ; sociology
    Abstract: This volume presents a range of research approaches to the exploration of ageing during a pandemic situation. One of the first collections of its kind, it offers an array of studies employing research methodologies that lend themselves to replication in similar contexts by those seeking to understand the effects of epidemics on older people. Thematically organised, it shows how to reconcile qualitative and quantitative approaches, thus rendering them complementary, bringing together studies from around the world to offer an international perspective on ageing as it relates to an unprecedented epidemiological phenomenon. As such, it will appeal to researchers in the field of gerontology, as well as sociologists of medicine and clinicians seeking to understand the disruptive effects of the recent coronavirus outbreak on later life.
