Sociology of old age and the elderly
Czech society is undergoing a number of changes, one of the most serious being its ageing as a result of demographic and social processes. Thirty years of life have been added to man since the beginning of the 20th century. But this is only an external indicator. But what happens inside the extended old age? Is the quality of life of seniors changing? Does the changing content of old age and the social position of the elderly affect society itself? Doc. PhDr. Petr Sak, CSc., and Mgr. Karolína Kolesárová answers in seventeen empirical researches and analytical studies carried out within the framework of the grant of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Czech Republic "Transformation of the social content of the senior generation category". The findings became the basis for writing a book on old age and the elderly from a sociological perspective. The reader will find theoretical analyses of key categories as well as very concrete empirical findings about the lives of contemporary seniors.
