Full Description
As Europe ages, cities face increasing pressure to adapt policies for older populations. This book explores how the idea of "social activity" for older people is implemented within urban ageing policy in Poznan, Poland. Drawing on extensive fieldwork, including observations and interviews, the study uncovers how global concepts like active ageing are shaped by local institutions, actors, and contexts. It adopts discursive institutionalism, actor-network theory, and the glocalization lens to examine the complexities of translating ageing policy into practice. Through a detailed case study, the book investigates how social activity is framed, organized, and experienced in a specific urban environment, revealing hidden networks and power dynamics behind seemingly ordinary events. This work contributes to critical debates on ageing, policy implementation, and local governance, offering valuable insights for scholars, policymakers, and practitioners engaged in urban social policy and gerontology.
