With neo-liberal resource rationing, and the onus of cost shifting from the state to individuals, families, and communities, migration issues can add a further layer of complexity to the question of caring for the elderly. By presenting examples from a variety of countries, this book will stimulate readers into considering new approaches to their own local situation in an attempt to find sustainable social work responses, and in helping to build intergenerational solidarity and social capital. This book was originally published as a special issue of the European Journal of Social Work.
Susan Lawrence is President of the European Association of Schools of Social Work (EASSW), Regional Vice President of the International Association of Schools of Social Work (IASSW), and until 2013 was Head of Social Work at London Metropolitan University, UK. She qualified as a social worker in1976 and has been a social work academic since 1991.
Sandra Torres is Professor of Sociology & Chair in Social Gerontology at Uppsala University, Sweden. Her research - which often lies at the intersection between the sociology of ageing and the sociology of migration and ethnic relations - problematizes old age-related constructs, sheds critical light on commonly used methods in health and social care, and deconstructs some of the assumptions that guide policy and practice for the older segments of our populations.
