Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The dominant narratives of both science and popular culture typically define aging and human development as self-contained individual matters, failing to recognize the degree to which they are shaped byexperiential and contextual contingencies. Our understandings of age are thereby 'boxed in' and constricted by assumptions of 'normality' and naturalness that limit our capacities to explore possible alternative experiences of development and aging, and the conditions - both individual and social - that might foster such experiences. Combining foundational principles of critical social science with recent breakthroughs in research across disciplines ranging from biology to economics, this book offers a scientifically and humanly expanded landscape for apprehending the life course. Rejecting familiar but false dichotomies such as 'nature vs. nurture' and 'structure vs. agency', it clarifies the organismic fundamentals that make the actual content of experience so centrally important in age and development, and it also explores why attention to these fundamentals has been so resisted in studies of individuals and individual change, and in policy and practice as well.In presenting the basic principles and reviewing the current state of knowledge, Dale Dannefer introduces multi-levelled social processes that shape human development and aging over the life course and age as a cultural phenomenon- organizing his approach around three key frontiers of inquiry that each invite a vigorous exercise of sociological imagination: the Social-Structural Frontier, the Biosocial Frontier and the Critical-Reflexive Frontier. 256 pp. Englisch.
