Demographic change is a reality for all European societies but the ways in which it is taking place differ from country to country. Active ageing both as a concept and policy response to the demographic ageing of populations has been widely debated, researched and utilised, informing both policy and practice, and providing a common narrative framework to ageing. However, there continues to be a lack of clarity around the precise meaning of 'active ageing'.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book explores the way in which social work is critically engaging with the theme of active ageing, in light of, or maybe as a reaction to, the policy responses witnessed within the context of large-scale and rapid demographic change. This book was originally published as a special issue of the \u003ci\u003eEuropean Journal of Social Work. \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45238422175895,"sku":"9781138098862","price":4150.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781138098862.webp?v=1769219673","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/active-ageing-and-demographic-change-challenges-for-social-work-and-social-policy-9781138098862","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
