Bücher von Toni M. Calasanti

Focusing on aging, this book illuminates how age relations interact with other social inequalities, particularly gender. It also aims to challenge and transform feminist scholarship and many taken for granted concepts in gender studies.

The experience of men and women in later life varies enormously, not only along the lines of gender but also due to ethnicity, class, sexual orientation, and race. Calasanti and Slevin explore these differences, their genesis, their meaning to men and women, and their treatment in the policy arena.
