Aging Nationally in Contemporary Poland - Jessica C. Robbins - Bog

In Poland, active aging programs both take on meanings associated with the country’s transition from socialism to capitalism and exceed such narratives of progress by resonating with older forms of activity in late life. Through intimate portrayals of a wide range of experiences of aging, Aging Nationally in Contemporary Poland shows how everyday practices and shared ideas about the Polish nation offer possibilities for living a valued, meaningful life in old age.
