Beschreibung
India is experiencing a profound demographic transformation as the proportion of older persons continues to rise. This book, Old Age in Changing India, offers a comprehensive sociological examination of ageing within the rapidly evolving social, economic, and cultural landscape of contemporary India. Drawing upon sociological theories, empirical evidence, and policy perspectives, the book explores the changing status of older adults, health and healthcare, family support systems, economic security, social exclusion, gender dimensions of ageing, mental well-being, and emerging challenges associated with population ageing. It also discusses the role of the State, civil society, and communities in promoting active and healthy ageing. Designed for students, researchers, policymakers, healthcare professionals, and social work practitioners, this volume provides a balanced understanding of ageing as both a personal and societal experience. By integrating theoretical insights with contemporary Indian realities, the book contributes meaningfully to the growing field of gerontology and the sociology of ageing.
