Excellent- More about Ageing, Men and Social Relations: New Perspectives on Masculinities and Men's Social Connections in Later Life

Publisher: Bristol University Press
Despite the growing body of scholarship on men, aging, and masculinities, there has been limited attention paid to the social relationships of men in later life and the implications for enhancing their social well-being and counteracting ageist discourse. To address this gap, this collection brings together scholars from social gerontology and the social sciences from across Global North and South nations. By foregrounding older men's experiences, the collection fills the gaps in key texts and offers fresh perspectives across the intersections of old age, ethnicity, class, and sexual and gender identity. Special attention is given to older men from seldom heard or marginalized groups, contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of their unique challenges and experiences.
The significance of this work lies in its ability to challenge prevailing narratives and stereotypes about older men. It highlights the diversity and complexity of their experiences, challenging the notion that they are a homogeneous group and instead recognizing the unique challenges and opportunities they face in later life. By exploring the social relations of men in later life, the collection contributes to a more inclusive and equitable society that recognizes the value and contributions of all individuals, regardless of age, gender, or background.
In conclusion, this collection is a valuable resource for scholars, policymakers, and practitioners working in the fields of social gerontology, aging studies, and gender studies. It provides new insights and perspectives on the social relations of men in later life, challenging existing assumptions and promoting a more inclusive and equitable society for all.
